Hello everyone, I have a couple of projects to share with you today. I posted one of the projects a few weeks ago on social media to help promote last month's One Day special on Hochanda, so some of you may have seen this card already. To create the card, I stamped the paint splash onto a piece of drawing cartridge several times using Versafine Clair Ink in three different colours. I chose bold colours for lots of impact. I stamped the dragonfly image from the Fragile Wings stamp set onto the background, and added the slim script and splatters from the Just Useful stamp set to extend the collage. I also added circles from the Make Your Mark stamp set.
I stamped and embossed the dragonflies onto some patterned paper, and cut them out. I then attached them to the background. The sentiment comes from the Fragile Wings stamp set as before.
I created an acrylic tag as my second project, I really enjoy making these, they are really fun to create. I chose a piece of A5 Double Sided Designer Paper, and using Archival Ink, added lots of detail. I used elements from the Just Useful
stamp set to create a collage, showing that you do not need a hero
image to create a real focal piece of artwork. You could add this to a
card, or give it as a special gift to someone, hang up as a stand alone
piece of artwork, or include it on a larger piece of mixed media. The
stamps I have used are all great for incorporating in backgrounds and
building up your collage pieces. I have some real favourites amongst
them already, some real go to stamps. As you experiment and play with
them, I hope that you will find yourself reaching for these stamps too.
I will be back later in the month with some more projects to share with you, thanks for stopping by. Take care and stay safe, xx
