Gorjuss Girls ATC's

Good afternoon crafty friends, I hope you all had a lovely holiday season with your loved one's.
I'm here with a quick share of some lil' ATC's I made using a few Gorjuss Girls. :o)

I stamped Ladybird, Forget Me Not & The White Rabbit images from the Gorjuss Collection onto old book paper with Cool Graphite Ink from Ranger Ink. I fussy cut them out and adhered them to some scrap  pieces I had made previously with Stencils and Dylusions Paints and outlined them with a black Watercolor pencil. I added some drywall and Washi Tape pieces for added texture and finished with the Tim Holtz "Small Talk" Stickers. I like to mount my ATC's onto black cardstock so that they are grounded and stand out more. :o)

How cute are they? Thank you for stopping by today and I wish you all a very Happy New Year!

STAMPlorations~ Stencil Hop Day 6~ Layered Dots

Good Morning and happy Friday everyone! I'm here today with another make for Day 6 of the
http://stamplorations.blogspot.com/2016/12/artplorations-stencil-hop.html

There are some amazing prizes up for grabs...check out the info here and get hoppin'! :o)
Here's Day 1's Distressed tag using Honeycomb Delight Mini Stencil. Here's Day 3's CAS card where I embossed using the Hearts All Over Stencil

Today, I'm layering using one stencil, the Bubbles- Mini ARTplorations Stencil.

 I started with a #8 Manilla tag and layered Fossilized Amber, Carved Pumpkin and Red Barn Distress Inks with a blending tool. I then went thru the Bubbles Mini Stencil with a Baby Wipe to get faint bubbles and then layered the same distress inks thru the stencil again to create depth and a Bokeh effect. I finished with a layered flower, butterfly and Chipboard Sentiment from my stash. 
 
I hope you've enjoyed my 3 makes for this fun ARTplorations Stencil Hop. :o)

STAMPlorations~ Sunday Stencil #77

Happy Sunday everyone! I'm sharing a journal page I made for STAMPlorations Sunday Stencil #77. The designers have created some fabulous mixed media projects to inspire you. You can find them  here so be sure to check them out and leave them some luv! :o)


I played with  ARTplorations Happy Flowers & STAMPlorations Art Marks
 
Here's my page:
I started with creating a background using  Mystic Blue Twinkling H20's. I then used the Happy Flowers stencil and colored thru it with Faber Castell Pitt Markers. I stamped circles in the background in white pigment ink and splattered some  Black Daler Rowney Pearlescent FW Liquid Acrylic for added texture. I finished with a "Smile" woodpiece from Michael's.

Don't forget, you still have time to join in our
 December Mixed Media Challenge.
