Altered Letter S, September mood board Challenge

9/30/2020

Picture
Hello Lovelies. Here is my blog for the September mood board challenge.
I love the colours of this months mood board. The beautiful baby blues, teal and pinks are just stunning.

I created this Altered letter S for my daughter Scarlett for her 5th birthday. As she loves Elsa and all things Frozen this months mood board was the perfect inspiration to create something for her in her favourite colours.

Picture
I started with a hard timber letter i purchased from my local dollar store. I then played around with placement of the resins, chip boards and jewellery until i had a plan. The resins are available in store as are most of the chip boards. 
Picture
Once i was happy with placement i glued everything done and gave the whole thing a good coat of white gesso. I added a few flowers i had laying on my craft table from another project.
Picture
Using a soft brush i played around with Finnabair Opal Magic (Teal-blue and Pink-blue). I love this product so much. So smooth to paint with leaving just the right amount of shimmer to the project. I also added a little Lindy's sprays
​(Time traval teal and Azure sea Asters). 
Picture
Here i used Finnabair wax's. (Indian pink, Peacock and mint sparkle)
​I never really have a plan of attack when using the wax, i just do what feels right and have fun with it. I then added some mini prills and that's about it. 
Picture
I love all the small details in this, it looks amazing on scarlett's shelf. 

Thankyou for viewing my blog.
Check out www.randomarts.com.au for all the product's i have used here and much more.
Get yourself a kit and get creative.

Hey there!
​I'm back today with unfortunately my last DT layout for Random Arts. So I hope you like this layout.
Picture
Picture
I started this layout by stenciling with some transparent relief paste and then spritzing the paper to make the stenciling show.
Picture
I heat embossed all the chipboard on this layout.
Picture
​I arranged the euphoria pieces under and around the flowers and weaved the lace through, tying it into a bow
Picture
To finish off this layout I used some silver flakes over the flowers and around the page to make it sparkle. I also added some crystals.

So I hope you have enjoyed seeing my DT layouts for Random Arts this year. It was great being part of this wonderful Design Team.

Happy, Love, Beautiful Art Journal Page

Here is my free post blog for Randomarts. I decided to go back to basic's with an Art Journal Page. With the stresses of day to day life i personally needed time to reflect and find some inner calm. Working in an Art Journal is fantastic therapy.
Picture
I started this page by giving it a good coat of white gesso. Once dry i then used white texture paste through a variety of stencils, building up texture and patterns. I then used a graphite pencil to roughly draw a design. At the beginning i was feeling a fairy spirit through the page, however this changed as the page moved on.
Picture
Now this is where the fun started. I used so many fun product's here. I started by using a wet brush and smearing water all over one side of the page. I then dripped, sprayed and painted on Lindy's sprays and little birdie color blast. (full product list at the end of the blog)
I then added a little icing paste through another stencil to add some shimmer and shine. I used dylisions paints and tim holtz distress paint for the lady's face. 
Picture
I used watered down lindy's flat fabio to paint in the details of the face, eyes and lips. I added a few lines of hair to add more details. 
Picture









​I used black ink and stamps throughout the page, washed out places with white gesso and a baby wipe and used a black sharpie pen to detail where needed. 

Picture











​​I smudged white gesso so i could write some words. I adore how much texture this page has. Really happy with the outcome.

​Hello again crafty friends!
A new month brings a new mood board challenge at Random Arts and this one is my favourite - Mint! Who doesn't love that beautiful pastel soft colour :)
So here is my DT layout for this month's mood board, I hope you love it and get inspired to join in.
Picture
​For this background I used a rose stencil with white gesso, then sprinkled embossing powder over the top while it was still wet.
Picture
​I then arranged my elements under and around my photo. Once I attached my photo, I attached some chipboard chains on either sides which I heat embossed pink/white.
I also embossed some small puzzle chipboard pieces in the same colour and others in a shabby white colour.
Picture
​Once everything was attached in its place, I stuck some feather like flower stalks in between the flowers to soften it a little.
Picture
I scattered some art stones around the layout and attached some crystals. I also dabbed a small circular lid into black ink and randomly stamped it around the outside of the layout. And that's it!
I hope you liked my latest creation for Random Arts. You will find a list of products I've used below and on the website.
If you would like to give this month's challenge a go, here is the mood board- you could win a $25 store voucher or a guest designer spot! Good Luck! Enter here.
Picture
I will be back very soon with another new creation to show you! Until then...happy crafting! :)

​Hey there fellow crafters!

I hope everyone is well and finding time to do some scrapping.
​
I'm back today to share my new fun inspired DT layout created for Random Arts.
Picture
​The card stock I used had the perfect colours to match my photo and it had a beautiful background already so I only added a little script stamping around my work area to match in with the script that was already on the card stock.
Picture
​As soon as I received the crackle corner chipboard from Random Arts, I loved it and had to include it into this layout. I used Lindy's magicals to colour it (full product list at the end of post) and the colour worked in beautifully with the rest of the layout.
Picture
​Once the embellishments were all in place, I added some silver crushed glass beads to make the layout sparkle.
Picture
​And that's the layout done! I hope you liked it, I will be back very soon with another new layout to share.
Until next time...Happy Crafting! :)

Hello dears!This is my Guest designer post for August 2020. My project is a 3D mixed media canvas called 'Lunar Moments'. I have symbolised the dreamcatcher and the moon face designs as dreams.We have to work hard to achieve them in these testing times.
This is a step by step explanation of how I created this project

1I took the Moonface and dreamcatcher resin embellishments from the store and painted them with black gesso.
Picture
2. I then arranged all the elements on the project base to form a composition.
3. I used Purple Chalk paint and coloured the moonface and dream catcher resin embellishment and green metallic wax for the gears.

​4. I also used green chalk paint to create highlights for the base of the project·
Picture
II added a few sequins and small diecuts to give a unique look to the project. This is the completed project.
Picture
The Random Arts products used in the project are:
Finnabair Cresent Moons and Large Dreamcatcher.

Keep smiling and happy crafting!

August Mood Board Challenge Blog

This months mood board was a little bit of a challenge for me. The purple and green colour combination is not usually colours i combine. However i'm totally happy with the end result of this Altered Candle Holder.
Picture
I started out with this very plain, gothic looking Candle Holder i've had laying around my house for many years. I covered the whole project with a good layer of white gesso. I also painted (2 crafty) chipboards, resins and a clay face i had in my stash.
Picture
I used LUMIERE (halo-violet gold) acrylic paint on all the pieces. I left a white edge on the candle holder so i could use lindy's sprays and wax to create a lush green. I also used a combination of Purple Hues Lindy's sprays over the acrylic paint. Full list of products available at the end of the blog.
Picture
I used a combination of green hues in the lindy's range to create a lush colour i was happy with. I also added a little Magical Shakers to add highlights then finally some (mint sparkle) wax until i was happy. I did the same process on the chipboards.  I also added a little of the (Electric Violet) Wax to all the purple Embellishments. I used a sofy brush to add the purple wax and my finger to rub on the mint wax
Picture
I also added moss, mini prills, used alot more (mint Sparkle) wax to highlight and flat back purple gems.
Picture
Picture
Thank you all so much for viewing my blog. It's so much fun to challenge yourself with colour combinations your not comfortable with.
