Gelliplate Album

An album I designed and made with all kind of different gelliplate prints. 

Doilies Art Jorurnal page

Some pictures from one of my art journal pages using doilies, spray ink, mediums, markers, Neocolour II crayons, stamps  and glitter gel.

Start with stamping on the doilies with a permanent ink

Glue them on a coloured background, I used Neocolor II crayons for this.

Outline the circles for a more layered effect.

Apply 3-D Gloss gel mixed with some glitter throug a stencil

Add a quote or some other text if you like . :)

January 2015 Guest Designer Stampotique (week4)

My 4th and last project as a Stampotique Guest designer had to be one with a painted background technique. (hosted by Corrie).

I combined blue acryllic paint with distress ink to make the background and used the Romantic Text stamp by France Papillon and brown ink on top of it.

As I am a big Frida fan (I wanted to use one of her stamps this month for sure) I choose Frida Grande by Amy Wilson and embossed her with black embossing powder.
I attached Frida on top of a piece of craft cardstock and stamped the French Journal page as a bit of a background and on top of that I stamped the word Fabulous by Carol's Collection. To finish the card I added some Tim Holtz sentiments and distressed the edges.

I really enjoyed this month as a guest designer for Stampotique and I hope you did too. Thanks for looking ! 

Lifebook 2015 week4 Courage Dear Heart with Patti Ballard

While being on a holiday in Spain I had quite some time to work on the Lifebook challenges /lessons. Although I had limited supplies with me I was able to create this "masterpiece" LOL

Lifebook 2015 - week1 Tamara Laporte

For the first time I joined lifebook this year. 

Untill now we had 4 challenges, the first was a warming up from Tamara Laporte, just to get into the mood. Not really difficult but fun to do! LOL


After that we had to make a "Beacon of Light" which I liked doing very much so I made 2 extra ones :)

First "Beacon of Light"

My second "Beacon of Light" combined with lettering inspired by Joanne Sharpe

And my 3th "Beacon of Light" which I also like very much, it's so much fun making these that I will probably will make more of them soon!

January 2015 Guest Designer Stampotique (week3)

The 3th theme this month as a guest designer for Stampotique is "Punny/Funny Projects" hosted by Kathi.
E.E. Cummings once said: "The most wasted of all days is one without laughter." Puns and word play always make me smile. Really good puns make me laugh.

So to make you smile (I hope) I created this "depresso coffee guy" for you. 

I folded and stitched a large tag to create a pocket to insert the small tag with "Coffee" sentiment. The background I made using clear embossing powder and France's new "Romatic Text" stamp which is lovely!  The "depresso" guy is Jammin' by Daniel Torrente. The sentiment I made on the computer and distressed it after printing  it.

It was fun making this one, hope you like it too :)
