New Year, New Planner on Die Cut Divas

Happy New Year!!

May 2024 brings you lots laughter and happy crafty times!

It's a New Year, and I've created a page for a new planner using some Never Before Used Stuff!

Speaking of NBUS, that's the challenge theme of January's challenge on Die Cut Divas Challenge Blog. There is no sponsor this month, however, Whimsy Stamp is generously donating a $15 gift voucher to their store for our challenge winner.

I will be using my planner page to keep track of my design team duties.

The publish dates are circled, and I shall write notes about my projects in the empty note sheet below the calendar grid.

I use a pattern paper as the base of the background, then I stenciled with embossing paste.

I also used a gold gel pen and added faux stitching and added lots of snowflakes (die cut using various paper).

I am linking up these challenges:

Scrapbook Centrale Creative Team Project 2023-Mar-03

Happy Friday!

It's my turn to post on Creation Scrapbook Centrale FB page today. Our March challenge theme: The Arts. For the first week of March, we concentrate on using Embossing Powder and Watercolors in our art projects.

I first created the 'watercolor look' background by 'ink-smooshing' with distress inks. Next I stamped the floral image with Soft Granite Shadow ink. Then I used Tim Holtz's Distress Watercolor Pencil to color the stamp, spritz with water and stamp. I did it in several passes once with each of the different colors. After the stamped images is dried, I stamped with watermark ink and clear embossed it.

The clear embossing intensified the watercolored image.

Next came the rest of the stamping, the large butterfly, and the post marks. I distressed the edges and added sentiment banners. Lastly I adhereed to a warm grey card base.

Main supplies in the photos below.

Thanks for coming over, have an crafty day!!

Travel mixed journal pages

Hi,

Last weekend, I took a mixed media class at my local stamp store, and the teacher was Vicky Papaioannou from Stamperia! It was a great pleasure to meet her in person and took part in her class.

After I completed the class project, I created another double page layout in my stone paper journal at home. You know what they say, practices make perfect!!
