More Pride, More Acceptance!

 November already...YIKES!  But here we are.

Continuing on with my love for Tina Walker's Scribble girls, I have a slimline card to share with you.

Stamps used:  Scribble Girl Pigtails, Scribble Girl Big Lips, Scribble One Earring, More Acceptance, More Pride

Stamped in archival ink and colored with Posca Paint pens.

The slimline die is from PhotoPlay Paper and I used a gelli printed piece from my stash.  Of course I used Dina Wakley paints and sprays.

And these sentiments are perfect for this crazy election time here in the US.

I am finding that I just love the slimline card, it is a fun size to create on!!

I will see you all soon.  Until next time...get inky!

Brave Wings

 OK, so you may have noticed that I just LOVE all of the Scribble Girls by Ms. Tina Walker, and if you haven't...trust me when I say I DO!

Today I have a tag to share with you combining the new release of stamps with a previous release of Scribble Girls.

The tag is pulled from my stash of gelli printed tags and papers.

Stamps used:  Scribble Girl with Curlers and Earrings, Tina Walker Wings

She is stamped in archival ink and colored with Posca Paint pens.  My favorite was to dress the girls!!!

I cut the earring with a craft knife so I could but the wings under them.  The wings are stamped on a magazine page from my stash that was gelli printed.

I do most of my gelli printing with Dina Wakley acrylic paint, I just love the colors.  The sentiment is written with my favorite Posca's.

I have a feeling this tag is going to end up in a journal, what do you think??

Until next time...get inky!

The Scribble Girl Bunch!

 I just LOVE Tina's Scribble Girls and this new collection is SO.  MUCH.  FUN.

You will notice in this ATC trio I am sharing today some matching washi tape!!  OMG!

Stamps used:  Scribble One Earring, Scribble Girl Pigtails, Scribble Girl Big Lips, One Human Race, More Pride, More Acceptance, Round Brushstrokes Large, Brush Hatches

These super fun ATC's are created on a piece of gelli printed card stock.

Subtle background stamping and then the girls!!!

Their 'bodies' are created with custom washi tape by Tina Walker and outlined with my trusty Stabilo All pencil.

These new sentiments are perfect for these three!!

And of course they are colored with Posca Paint pens...don't they look like abstract paintings??

Thanks for the visit!

Until next time...get inky!

If Only...

Today I am sharing the last pages in my Scribble Girl journal. I am sad to see it end BUT rest assured you will see more things from me using these awesome Scribble Girl stamps!!

Stamps used:  Tape, Row of Scribble Circles

I think this is one of my favorite pages...the combination of Dina Wakley paints and gloss sprays and the doodling in and around the Dina Wakley stencils mixed with the stamping just CALLS to me.

The boldness of the doodling with Posca Paint pens, ahhhhhhh.

Thanks for coming along with me on my scribbley journey!  I DO NOT see it ending here.  Scribbles are good for the soul whether they are in the form of the girls or just shapes and marks!! 
Scribble your art out!!

Until next time...get inky!

Mixed Media Tag by Elisa Ablett

Hi everyone,

Elisa here from the design team with my latest VLVStamps inspiration for you.

I ordered the Tina Walker Scribble Girl plate a little while ago and couldn't wait to try them out with a lovely colourful background.

I started with a gel plate print on my tag and added layer of inks, stenciling and stamping in tropical colours.

I then stamped Scribble Girl with Earrings stamp on deli paper, fussy cut the image out and added a smidge of colour to her earrings and cheeks using a fine paint brush. 

To finish off the tag I added black water soluble crayon to the edges of the deli paper image and added some water to smudge the edging creating shadows and depth. 

Let's take a look at the products used from Viva Las VegaStamps website:-

Wild Side

Happy Monday all!!  I hope everyone is staying safe during these interesting times.
I have another page in my Scribble Girl journal.  I had picked this page to share today before the world turned upside down.  I think it is very appropriate and Perspective is very necessary for us all to get through this. 

Stamps used:  Big Eyed Scribble Girl, Perspective, Circle Pattern Circle, Striped Pattern Circle

I stamped the images on Dina Wakley tissue and added them with gel medium.  Dina Wakley Gloss Sprays and Acrylic Paint background, Dina Wakley Stencils and Posca Paint Pens to color the stamped images and doodle.

For a little contract I left one of the stamped images uncolored.

If you are stuck at home I hope you are finding some time to make art!  And I hope you are staying safe!

Until next time...get inky!

Don't Be Confused

It is time for another page in my Scribble Girl Journal!  Are you ready??  Well, here we go!

Stamps used:Earrings Scribble Girl, Fuck Head, Tape

I used the Dina Wakley white tape to create my own kinda washi...stamped with archival ink.
Coloring and doodling all with Posca Paint pens.

I just love the bright pink on this page!  And that quote...it ALWAYS resonates with me because I usually know but I don't always say, choose your battles right??

Until next time...get inky!

The World is my Runway

Guess who...???  Yep, it is me again!  AND I have another page to show you from my book, just like I promised last time.

Stamps used: Spiky Hair Scribble Girl, The World is my Runway

This page has the matching scribble girl chip board piece from Um Wow Studio, OMG!  I colored her with Posca Paint Pens.

I love the stamp and matching chip layered!

If you remember from last time I have used Dina Wakley Media Gloss Sprays, Paints and Stencils for the background.  I outlined and doodled on the stenciled images with Posca Paint Pens.

So I will make another promise to bring you another page next month...actually 2 pages for both of my spots for March.  AND probably some pages in April too.  I am in LOVE with these scribble girls!!!  I just can't get enough of using them and I am excited to have an entire little book dedicated to them!!  Maybe is it because they remind me of ME.

Until next time...get inky!

Why Try to be NORMAL???

Michele here with a journal page mixing stamping with collage.

Stamps used: Big Eyed Scribble Girl, Badass

I love mixing stamping with collaging and the Scribble Girls are perfect for that!!

A perfect fit and then a little bit of coloring with Posca Paint Pens.

A little muted BADASS in the background to finish it off...of course I used Brushos for the background color, some doodling and a StencilGirl stencil for a bit of dimension.

Fun right??!!
Until next time, GET INKY!!

Art Journal: Perspective of Time by Cheetarah

Hi VLVStampers! Hope you all are having a wonderful day so far. It's Cheetarah here on the blog today and I have a little art journal spread to share with you made with lush VLVS! The focal point is a wonderful whimsical Scribble Girl designed by Tina Walker which is a new release! Check out the full plate HERE. Let me tell you how I made it and as usual, list of stamps are at the bottom of the post. 

I stared off in my pocket junk journal by adding gesso over some glued down ephemera (dictionary/book pages) and then scraping color with a used gift card until I was satisfied with the blend. I used midnight blue, fuchsia and a sea green acrylic paint for this. To add some more texture I took out my StencilGirl Stencils with some wonky geometrical shapes and lightly dabbed some paint through them. 

Next step I added more texture by stamping some yummy VLVS! texture stamps with Staz-On inks over the painted layer. The sentiment Past Present Future is also from a StencilGirl Stencil. I first used the sea green paint then traced it with a Fudeball pen. Now the base layer is done and went to work with the focal point. 

Tip if you want to use watercolors over acrylic paint layers: I bought this product a while back, watercolor ground by Daniel Smith Artists materials and really wanted to test it out as I love coloring images with watercolors. I applied a bit on the right page dried it with a heat tool to set then I stamped my focal image on it with archival ink. Then heat set it. My image was ready to be color in! Showing you some process shots of the coloring below:

The ground took the watercolors (Jane Davenport brand) very nicely and I was patient with adding the colors in layer and give it enough time to blend and dry until I was satisfied with the over all look of the the woman. Also the ground knocked down the background in brightness and to bring the pages together I stamped the previously used texture stamps over this layer. 

Stamped the word 'perspective' in the middle and splattered some rose gold paint & added a black border and called it done. 

Stamps used: 

Big Eyed Scribble Girl - Tina Walker  

Numbers set 

Row of numbers 

Row of Chevrons

Bubblewrap Texture 

Perspective 

Materials used:

Gesso

Dina Wakley paints

Daniel Smith watercolor ground

Jane Davenport watercolors

Hope this inspired you to take your your VLVS! and have a play with them!

Until next time! 

Have a lovely day.
