Pocket Watch tag

Hi everyone xx

I'm over on the Bee Crafty blog today with a tag I made using the Pocket Watch stamp  as a focal image xx

Also used:
Compass 2 Inkable 
Bubblewrap
Distress Oxides: faded Jeans, peacock feathers, iced spruce, black soot

To begin my project I blended the 3 Distress Oxides randomly over the tag.

Using some diluted bleach I dabbed through the Compass Inkable, to create a washed out effect.

I applied Black Soot to a piece of Bubblewrap and stamped it randomly around the tag.

To finish I stamped the Pocket Watch off the edge of the tag then attached some ribbon.

I hope you liked todays make. See you again soon

Don't believe everything

Morning crafters

As it's a Thursday I'm on the Bee Crafty blog. For this weeks post I'm sharing a page from my Art Journal,  using the lovely Ledger Measure stamp set. I love the freedom of playing in my journal as I just let my creativity flow and see where I end up xx

Also used:
Metal Work Inkable 
Dinkables
Distress Inks
Ticker Tape Sentiments stamp set
Random Numbers stamp set

To begin I added some white gesso to my page and dried it off. This gives me a lovely base for any mediums I wish to throw at it lol.

I inked through the Metal Work Inkable, randomly on the page, in a Distress Ink. 

I then did the same in another colour, using the Circles Dinkable. 

With the same Distress Ink, I randomly stamped some of the Random Numbers off the edge of my page, to add more depth.

The beautiful Ledger Measure was inked up with Black Onyx Versafine and stamped off the page slightly.

To finish I stamped, cut up and adhered a Ticker Tape Sentiment to the page, then drew some wiggly lines, in a black pen, to frame my page.

I hope you liked todays creativity and I'll be back again soon.

Dreams come true

Hey everyone xx

Any plans for today?
I'm on the Bee Crafty blog today with a card I made using the utterly beautiful Swallow stamp xx

Also used:
Wildflower 1 
Inspirational Words 1 
Distress Oxides
Dinkables
Gelli Plate

I created my background using my Gelli Plate. (However you can create a similar effect, blending Distress Oxides, and stamping each layer separately  using the Circle Easy Frame Inkable).

I inked up my Gelli Plate with Distress Oxides, blending through the Honeycome Dinkable, and stamping the Wildflower randomly on the plate. 

Then I applied my plate to the front of my card blank. I printed a second generation print from it on the lower right of the card blank.

The Swallow, and Sentiment was stamped in Smokey Grey Versafine.

To complete I used my clear Sparkle pen  to add a hint of sparkle to my Swallow xx

I hope you enjoyed today's make. See you again soon.

Don't look backwards

Hi lovely crafters xx

First of all I would like to take this opportunity to wish you all a very happy New Year. I hope 2020 brings you joy, happiness, and lots of crafty goodies 🤣

Over on the Bee Crafty blog today I've a couple of ATC's I made using the beautiful tall Teasel.
I had an urge to get all my stamps out and see where the mood took me, and I ended up with these ATC'S.  Lol.

Also used:
Dinkables
Distress Oxides 
Script stamp
Ticker Tape stamps
Distressed Diamonds stamp
White embossing powder

To begin I used Versmark sticky ink to stamp the Distressed Diamonds, then heat embossed in white.  This acted as a resist.

I blended Distress Oxides over the ATC'S,  drying each layer before blending the next one.

I used the same colours through the Honeycomb Dinkable.

I randomly stamped parts of the script stamp, in the darkest Oxide. When stamping randomly I like to hold the stamp in my hand, I find it gives a more distressed random effect.

The beautiful Teasel was then stamped in Smokey grey Versafine 

To complete my ATC'S I stamped my Ticker Tape Sentiments, cut them out and adhered with glue gel. 

Well I hope you liked the results of my random, free thinking Crafty session lol.

Until next time.
