Doodle Flowers Atc´s

Image
Hi, I'm Vero (@ Vero.kt) and I welcome you to today's inspiration. How's everybody ? I've been playing  with   Mixed media marks 1 ,   Pencil marks 3 ,  Mix a sentiment 2   and   Doodle Flowers     to  create a  colorful Atc´s that I hope you like . Very easy to do, we started. We cut watercolor paper to a size of 2.5 x 3.5 inches, if you prefer to work in cm, 6.4x8.9. In my case, the paper is smooth and hot pressed, and I color the backgrounds with pigments. W hen the backgrounds dry (we can speed up the process with a heat gun) we will add texture and depth with different inks, in my case I have used distress oxide.To start, I choose a stamp from the  Mixed media marks  , apply the inks, spray water, and stamp, (I'm not looking for definition, I'm looking for a watercolor effect, watery). Help myself with the dryer and go back to stamp with different inks, to continue adding depth and texture. One of the parts ...

Seaside Postcard by Angie Coomber

Image
 Hello arty friends, How is your summer going? I received the lovely Ahoy stamp set recently and just had to make a summery postcard. I dug into my box of old scrapbook papers and picked out a few that I thought were right for my this. I also have a tin of watercolour postcards so I used one of these. I chose on of the papers for the background (if you look closely you can see it’s actually a Christmas one!) and the others for the boats. Next I stamped the boats on the patterned paper as well as some white paper. I cut out the coloured boats and some of the sails from the white ones, which I glued to the coloured boats. I then glued them onto the background. Finally I added the seagulls and the quote, as well as some embossed background stamping and the word on the sail. I hope you like it! Until next time, Hugs from Angie x Stamps used: Ahoy

Carving for the sea - ATC cards by Farida

Image
 Hello lovlies, happy to see you here again. Are you enjoying summer? I had been sick the last couple of days and was looking foward to see the sea  again. This brought me to the idea of creting some sea-themed Artist Trading Cards using the amazing Ahoy- Stampset . Because I wanted to use some watercolours, I stamped the three diffrent boats on to watercolour paper.  Just did some easy colouring on them, using red, yellow and blue for the sails.  For the ATC card background I used some diffrent blue shades and a lot of water for creating the sky as well as the waves.  After letting the background fully dry I added some circle stamps onto the sea background and some flying gulls to the sky. Because I wanted to add some kind of movement to the image I used my knife to make a wavey slit into the background. So i could pop in the boats a little bit. For the finishing touch I added some sentiments to the cards.  Now I have even more yearn more for being at the ...

Quick art journal page

 Hi friends!  Lisa today on the blog with a new art journal inspiration for Rubber Dance design team! To start I glued some pieces of patterned papers on my page and I brushed a coat of clear gesso. I chose Mixed Media Marks clear stamps and I made some designs with archival inks. I made some scribbles with a black watercolor pencil and I chose a moth from Inky Friends stamp set for my focal point. Finally I added a sticker and I made some splatters with white liquid paint. I used these products from the shop:  https://www.rubberdance.de/clear-stamps/mixed-media-marks-1-clear-0001/#cc-m-product-14534935433 https://www.rubberdance.de/big-sheets/inky-friends/#cc-m-product-14383086833 I hope you enjoyed my art journal inspiration for you!

Row of Textured Houses by Ellie Knol

Ellie here.. I have a fun tutorial for you today..  The how-to:  - Find or create an A5 sized background with a darker and a lighter part as shown.  - Cut the lighter part to size as the background, in my case it measures 10 x !4,3 centimeters. - Stamp the houses on the rest of the colored cardstock.  - Fussycut all of the houses.  - Add white highlights to all of them with a white gelpen.  - Stamp some doors and windows on a leftover piece in an opposite color, for example a yellowish window for a bluish house and vice versa. Fussy cut these too.  - Add extra color to part of the houses in corresponding colors.  - Adhere the fussycut windows and doors to the houses. Also stamp a bigger window and adhere it onto one of the houses, just for fun.   - Stamp Mixed Media Stamps to the background with corresponding colors and a grey.  - Adhere all the houses to the background, I chose to stick 3D tape to some of them for more interest....
