Lovely Lily and Music stamp sets by Honey Doo Crafts

Good morning everyone xx

It's the weekend..Yay.  What have you got planned?

Today I'm sharing a Canvas I made using :
Lovely Lily stamp set
Music stamp set
Both available from
Www.honeydoocrafts.co.uk 
Also used:
Texture Paste
Acrylic Paints
Dyna Paints
Distress Ink : Cracked Pistachio,  Shaded Lilac
Gold Gilding Wax

To begin I blended Cracked Pistachio and Shaded Lilac distress inks all over the canvas, varying the shades from light to dark

I mixed some of the inks into my texture paste and went through a dotty stencil

The main Lily was stamped in black onyx versafine ink 

Using Pebeo Dyna paints and a water brush,  I coloured in the Lilies.  Beautiful shimmer

The Music stamp was held in the palm of my hand and stamped randomly in the black ink 

I also stamped some circles in a blue acrylic paint

To finish I highlighted the edges of the canvas and over the texture paste dots, with Pebeo gold gilding wax 

Thankyou for taking the time to take a look and please leave a comment.  I do read them all

Bee Crafty Splatter Swirl Upright Rectangle Backdrop Frame and Lustre Luxe's

Afternoon crafters
How has your day been soo far?
I've had a fab weekend getting very inky and messy with mixed media projects..love it lol

Anyway I'd love to share a canvas I made using some new products I've just bought from Bee Crafty, which I wanted to try out
www.beecrafty.net

I used the following products:
 Splatter Swirl Upright Rectangle Backdrop Frame
Lavender Quartz Lustre Luxe  

I also used Pebeo Dyna acrylic paints
Stencils

To begin I put some of my Lustre Luxe on a glass block, added some water and used as a wash over the canvas.

I did the same with the Dyna paints. 

I also used some straight from the containers, to create a thicker consistency and more intense colour 

I heat blasted it quickly, then put some more of the Lustre Luxe on my block before using it through a variety of stencils. It acts like a texture paste and creates a 3d dimension to the canvas. And the shimmer is wow!! 

I then stamped the backdrop frame in black onyx versafine ink. I also stamped elements of it randomly around the canvas

The sentiment was also stamped in the black ink and to finish I added some white gel highlights.

I hope you like my canvas and I thankyou for popping by

True Friends stamp set by Stamps By Me

Morning crafters
How is everyone doing today? Any crafty plans?

Anyway, today I'd like to share a sample I made to showcase the beautiful new
True Friends stamp set by
Www.stampsbyme

I had a lot of messy fun creating this sample

To begin I cut a square of card smaller than my card blank

Using my pixie powders I created a shimmery background in teals,  greens and blues with a rich gold in there too

I stamped the outline stamps, and the sentiment, in black onyx versafine ink 

I then used the pixie powders and some Dyna paints to paint directly onto the solid stamp. I stamped over the outline stamps several times, using different colours to create a dimensional look to the flowers

I the cut this into two strips and matted each onto gold mirri then adhered both to the card blank with foam pads

I hope you like my use of this beautifulstamp

Mermazing and Ocean Pals stamp sets by MFT

Morning crafters

Hope everyone is feeling good today and has a crafty day planned

I'd like to showcase the really gorgeous stamp sets available from
Www.bumbleberrys.co.uk. 

I made this 8x8 canvas using the following :

Mermazing  stamp set by MFT
Ocean Pals stamp set by MFT
Mermaid Tail Background stamp by MFT

I took an 8x8 canvas and blended Cracked Pistachio,  Salty Ocean and Tumbled Glass Distress inks to create a background 

I coloured my texture paste with the DI and used a dotty stencil to create some dimension. I also randomly inked through the same stencil with the inks

I randomly stamped some texture stamps I had in smokey grey and black onyx ink to create more dimension

I then stamped all my images in smokey grey versafine ink, apart from the seaweed and plants which I stamped in green DI

I coloured in my images using various mediums, including kuretake clean colour pens, distress inks, Acrylic Paints and Dyna paints as I wanted to have a variety of textures to my canvas 

To complete I added some Frosted Lace sickles to the Mermaids tails and silver gilding wax randomly across the edges

I hope you like my canvas

True Friends stamp set by Stamps By Me

Morning crafters
Any one up to some crafting today? What are you all working on?

I'd like to share a canvas I made yesterday using the beautiful
True Friends stamp set available from
www.stampsbyme.co.uk

I used different stencils and texture paste to create some dimension to the blank canvas

I then blended Spun Sugar, Worn Lipstick and Squeezed Lemonade distress inks all over the canvas 

Using a mixture of Smokey Grey and Black Onyx Versafine ink I stamped random textures around the canvas, holding each stamp in the palm of my hand. I find this creates a more random distressed effect ideal for mixed media

Versafine black onyx ink was used to stamp the main outline image 

Acrylic and Dyna paints were painted onto the solid stamp and these were stamped over the outline image. I heat blasted the flower before repainting and stamping the solid stamp to create more depth and dimension

Gilding wax was dragged from the edges randomly to create a metallic shimmer feel

To finish I highlighted some areas with a white gel pen.

Hope you like today's make

Flowers For You by Stamps By Me

Good morning crafters

It's Saturday. .what are we all up to? Me..I'll be in my craft room playing with..Sorry working with some new stamps lol

Anyways..today I'm showcasing the absolutely fantastic
Flowers For You stamp set by
Www.stampsbyme

This is one of my favourite stamp sets..it's big, bold and so versatile.  And it can even be zentangled,  which I've not tried before but watch this space....

To begin I cut an oval black mat and a slightly smaller oval white mat

I embossed the white mat using one of my embossing folders

I adhered the white oval on to the black oval, adhered this to some white card, cut slightly smaller than my card blank

I drew a wiggly line around this, to frame it

I stamped the fabulous flower stamp onto white card with black onyx versafine ink 

Once dry I coloured it in with Dyna paints and a water brush, to give a beautiful mica shimmer to the flower and leaves

I attached the card to the bottom of the oval die with foam pads

The sentiment was stamped in black onyx versafine ink and a few pearls were added to the embossed oval, to complete 

I hope you like this card and love the stamp as much as I do
