Praise the goddess - by ~*Arwen*~

 Hi Lovelies 

 

Welcome back here :)

 My project today is a postcard:

 


 some close-ups:




 

And that's the way, I created it:


 1.) First, I select my motifs and stamp the first. I position the second one beforehand using a mask. This allows me to estimate how much space I'll need.

 


 2.) Now that both images are stamped, I need to trace the right image so that the ceiling extends to the floor. I use my Micron Pen for this.

 


 3.) When it comes to coloring, I first start with the background. For this, I use my handmade watercolor paint.

 

4.) Next, I'll work on the tablecloth. I'll use a darker color than the background for this. I'll also add some shading.

5.) Now that both pictures are finished coloring, I add masks so I can add a few more spritzes of shimmer spray.

 


 6.) Still missing a text. Instead of a pre-made saying, I decided to use an alphabet. This way, I can formulate my own sentences.

 


 7.) To finish, I stamp some cat paws onto the card with chalk stamp ink. Done!

 

All stamps I used:

- Skeleton Praying/Begging

- Cat on stand

- Paw Print

- Shadow Alphabet

 

other supplies:

-  Watercolorpaper (Canson)

- Cardstock

- Micron Pen

- handmade watercolors

- VersaFine Clair

- ColorBox Chalk

- Edding Calligraphy Pen

- Zig Pens 

- Dylusions Shimmer Spray 

- Waterbrush 

 

See ya soon *mwah*

Fairy by Tracy Blackwolf

 Hello everyone,

I did a tag today , I hope you get a good laugh.



For the background I used a combo of kaleidacolor inks and distress spray stains.
For the wings I used effect paste-phoenix by Finnabair . Sadly it just doesn’t photograph well. It has a lot of fire and is really pretty.


The final touch was using orange glitter glue on the dragonfly wings. A fun tag.

Stamps used:
Large fairy  18493
I may be fat…. 147
Dragonfly     9830
Wildflowers    18819
Grassy dune.     9871

Other supplies:

Distress spray stains
Kaleidacolor ink pads-baby powder, fresh greens

Pigs can fly by Cathy N

 Good afternoon, Cathy here with a fun tag I made for you today.


 

                                                                      Stamps Used:

                                                            4070 side view flying pig

                                                             4006 flying pig rear

                                                             19563 grunge circles

                                                             19391 Big Ben


I started out by making a tag from scrap paper that I had. Then I stamped grunge circles with some distress ink around the tag. I then took some dark brown distress ink and inked the edges of it.


Next, I stamped Big Ben on the bottom and colored it in with copic markers. 


Lastly, I stamped the flying pig rear and the side view flying pig on the top of the tag and colored them in with acrylic paint pens. I stamped them again after I was finished with the acrylic pens so you could see them again.
