Mail Art Monday with Cheetarah


Hello lovely people, it's Cheetarah here and it's MONDAY and I'm on the blog today to share with you a Mail Art envelope I have created. 


I started off with stamping this gorgeous stamp by Kaity Paltridge on the envelope with Memento Paris Dusk which is a dark blue. And blocked off a segment for where the address is going to be. All the stamps I used are listed below, by the way. 

Then I went to color the image with Promarkers/alcohol markers. Chose yellow colors to compliment the blue colore that I am going to use around the image. 

Next step I used distress oxides in blue tones to color the rest of the envelope (masked off the main image before doing so) and added water drops & dried it with a heatgun for some texture. 

Next step I stamped some yummy mixed media stamps in blue tones and edged the envelope with distress ink chipped sapphire. 

After I took off the masks I doodled around the edges with a black fine liner and called it done.

Have a wonderful week and until next time!

"The Ghost Ship"


Hello my VLVS! peeps ... I'm back!! I've been on a little holiday around Australia these last few weeks and so haven't really been able to post much for you. But .... I'm home now and I have a ripper under the sea art journal page I created using Kaitlyn Paltridge's new stamp designs.

 My art journal is an old story book so this page already had the title "The Ghost Ship" and a gorgeous old illustration of a captain on his ship with his crew. It was just waiting to be VLVS-a-sized!


Kaity's Aquarium Space Girl and Garden Space Girl designs were a perfect fit for this ghost ship theme along with the wonderful Humpback Whale!


Lots of background work with some acrylics and it got pretty busy so I stamped the space girl designs onto card stock and cut them out and glued them over the top so they would stand out as a focus on the page.
