Daylight Dreams tag with video tutorial

Hi everyone,

It's Monday and that means a new Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge! This week it's all about "Anything But a Card".

Not a card this time, but a tag. I started with Collage Paper and Soft Matte Gel, old book paper and Washi Tape. I also used an Urban Layers element. Then I applied a layer of White Gesso with the Silicone Brush and a layer of Clear Gesso on top. If you dry it with a heat tool, it will bubble and gives a very cool textured effect. To give it even more texture I used the Stitches stencil with Texure Paste and applied Grit-Paste around the edges.

 

When everything was dry I started with adding color. Firstly Nuvo Shimmer Powder Solar Flare and Infusions Lemoncello, and also Infusions Black Knight and Nuvo Shimmer Powder Storm Cloud to darken it a bit. I gave the Paperdolls a yellow dress with Distress Crayon Fossilized Amber.

Texture Celebrate card with video tutorial

Hi everyone,

It's Monday and that means a new Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge! This week it's all about "Add Some Texture".

It has been a while since I've used my Prima Moulds. This challenge is ideal for that. I only used a few elements of it, and didn't create a lot of dimension. First, I started with Washi Tape as a basis. After that I did some random stamping with a small Finnabair stamp, and on top of that I used Digits stencil with Texture Paste.

 

When the Texture Paste was dry I applied a coat of Clear Gesso. Then I gave all elements a layer or two of White Gesso. For the elements I used Metallique Paint Spring Blossom, Rustic Brown and Opal Magic Paint Blue-Gold. I've also applied some Metallique wax in Aged Brass and Old Denim on top of the elements.
