More Bookmarks

Image

I made this set of bookmarks in exactly the same way I made the previous two sets, using the die cut shapes, the tissue paper and the cut out images.

Image

There are 7 of us playing in the swap and I am sending to everyone, so I needed a couple more to be able to send everyone a couple, so I decided to take a different approach and ended up with these, which I am entering into this weeks PaperArsty challenge of squares and grids.

Bookmarks for a Swap

Image

I brayered about 4 different colours of decoart multi surface satin paint onto a piece of 8"x8" white card. I die cut some Seth shapes and coloured them in a contrasting colour and stuck them to the card. I stuck tissue paper over the top of everything.

Image

I did exactly the same with this one but used a different colour pallet and different die cut shapes.

Image

Once completely dry I cut the edges down and added some more colour using the paints in the media misters. I applied them with a babywipe.

Image

And for this one I used the green, yellow and turquoise shimmer media mister.

Image

Then to tone it down a bit, I went over some areas with white gesso.

Image

And the same for this one.

Image

Next I added some random stamping using stazon inks.

Image

And again applied the same process to this one.

Image

And the last step for the background was to again use gesso to knock back some of the stamping.

Image

And again, the same for this one.

Image

Next I cut each piece of card into strips of 4, cut out some Teesha Moore images and words, and stuck them onto the backgrounds.

Image

And the same for this set. I used matte decoupage glue to stick them down.

Image

And for the final step, I added a piece of ribbon to each piece.

Image

I made these for a swap for a group I have recently joined on FB.

Just Playing - Spring Time

Image

Gosh it's been raining nearly all day today and it's been that dark and gloomy I had to craft with the light on!!  So I decided to hit some spring colours / images and have a play.  This one is an atc, background is pan pastels dairylide yellow (250.5) and bright yellow green shade (680.3).  The image was stamped in black stazon.  The edges were subtly inked in tea dye distress ink.

Image

This one is sort of a bookmark size.  Background again is pan pastels, well I haven't played with them for a while.  Mixture of phthalo blue tint (560.8), phthalo blue (560.5) and ultramarine blue extra dark (520.1).  The background image is stamped in iced spruce distress ink.  The main Indigoblu image is stamped in timber brown stazon and the butterfly from the same plate was inked with distress markers, spritzed with water and stamped.

Image

Background again is pan pastels dairylide yellow (250.5) and bright yellow green shade (680.3). The Crafty Individual images were stamped in black stazon and coloured with distress ink markers.

Image

More pan pastels for the background.  I inked up my new (to me) Stampotique word background stamp with walnut stain distress ink.  The other images are from T!m's urban tapestry plate and inked in black stazon.

Image

And lastly I used a combination of magenta (430.5), violet shade (470.3) and violet tint (470.8).  The background image is a wooden stamp painted with pansy and mushroom Paperartsy fresco paint.  The Lavinia image was stamped firstly in black stazon and then over stamped with seedless preserve distress ink.  I don't know why but those Lavinia stamps really don't stamp well with permanent inks!!

Created these using the bandana technique. Basically you ink up a collage of images, cover with brightly coloured inks and use a white pen to outline the stamped images

Book Marks

ImageImageImage
This is my contribution to a book mark swap being hosted on Paper Paradise forum. Acrylic paint has been used on all the pieces, applied with a pallet knife. An image has been stamped onto the first one and then another image has been stamped onto acetate and placed over the top using a single eyelet so that the acetate is free to move. The images on the second one were stamped directly and a matching ATC was made, acetate was used to cover the ATC, hence the reason that it looks duller. I wish now I had not applied the acetate to the ATC - We live and learn!!!!!! This is a RAK for the host.
