Passion, Art, Adventure Tag with Moths by Priss

Image
Hello everyone, Priss ( @artful.layers ) here with another Mixed Media Tag with the colours of August's Moodboard.  I already mentioned that last month's Moodboard colour combination had enchanted me and I keep doing projects with it. First, I cut a tag from mixed media paper and paint colour blocks with pigments as watercolours. Then, I stamped, here and there, with stamps from the sets  Doodle Borders 2   and  Mixed Media Circles   (with ink in similar colours). Also, I stamped with white and yellow embossing powder and stamps of the set  Mixed Media Marks . Meanwhile, I prepared some elements to use in my composition.  Over vellum, I stamped in pink embossing powder my favourite stamp from the set  Grungy Stuff  and cut around it. Over a scrap of book paper, I stamped half moth of the set  Inky Friends  and painted it. On a piece  of scrapbooking paper I stamped with the numbers from the set  Mixed Media ...

Adorable Puppy Tags by Priss

Hello, stampers!!! Priss here today and I'd like to share with you these tags with the adorable puppies of the set Fur-ever Friends First I made these gorgeous papers (cause I love green so much) with my Gelli Plate, some acrylics paints and a flower that I made with the cardboard toilet paper roll. If you want to know how I made it, then you have to watch the video below (ppp-please excuse me if I made some mistakes with my spoken English in the video) Then I glued it over two tags, and applied some texture paste with a stencil. Before the paste gets dry, I applied some embossing powders over it. Be careful to let the paste dry before melting the powders. Then I stamped the two cute puppies, painted them with some gelatos and alcohol markers, and fussy cut them. The most funny part starts now. For the composition, I stamped some Mixed Media Marks  and Mixed Media Circles on sticky paper, cut them in circles and stuck over the tags.  Then I stamped some Doodle Bo...

Card with Sketchy Flowers by Priss

Image
Hi, Rubber's friends!!  Priss here with my first post as a DT Member. I made a lovely card for someone really special with the  Sketchy Flowers #1  stamps I leave you the video at the end of this post, and the step by step below.  First, we need a black cardstock about 10x6 inches, and fold it in three.  Then we need to cut three pieces of watercolour paper, just a little smaller than each part of the black Card.  In the centre piece, I stamped my sentiment with black embossing powder "You don´t have to be perfect" from the set  Flowers Gone Wild . On the other two pieces, I put some white gesso and while it is still wet, I stamped it with permanent green ink. In the video, you'll see that I change my mind and used acrylic paint. That's because my ink is mostly dry.  Rubber Dance stamps are perfect to use with this stamping technique on wet gesso (just be careful to clean them immediately with warm water and a soft cloth).  I also used ...
