Hi everyone,
Over at Imaginarium Designs our theme so I thought
I'd put a touch of Teal tones into some of my March creations in this
months share.
This
month I was really excited about the new products and chipboard our
design team is able to share with you. So when I found there was
stencils I couldn't wait to use them. I had been wondering how I could
use this photo I took of a knight participating in a jousting
demonstration at our Kryal Castle visit a couple of years ago and seeing
the new products ideas began to flow.
The
background was created by using Texture Paste Translucent Matte by
Ranger smeared over one of our new stencils from our 'Mallory Mask and
Stencil set'. When dry I used lots of water and Lindys Magicals powders
'mad hatter mint' and 'tweedle dee demin' to make a water colour wash.
The border was painted with a deep blue from Diana Wakley acrylics
paints and the phrase words 'live each day with heart' with the same
Lindy's 'mint'

My second creation was another
12" x 12" layout, this time using the amazing 'Hazy Days' 7 Dots Studio
papers designed by my wonderful friend Fiona Paltridge. Her papers were
perfect to compliment the style of the chippie I chose for the photo to
celebrate our daughters friendship and of the times spent together which
were filled with love and laughter.
I
used Diana Wakley acrylics to add colour to my page, then painted the
chipboard pieces in a 13@rts 'deep blue', to match a colour that I
pulled from the paper. Using Diana Wakley 'Tangerine' I sponged the
colour over our new 'Hearts' stencil to balance the orange of my
daughters windcheater with the background paper. To finish off I used
white and teal twine to frame the photo and tie the layers to the paint I
added to the background.

I was
wondering what I hadn't shared with you lately and realised when I went
to my card stash I was out of luck, so here's a card to inspire you to
make some for a card stash for those 'Quick I need a special card'
moments we all have.
My
cards' background was some paper I'd made using my gelli plate last
year in of course my favourite colours glued onto white card stock with
gel medium. Using some teal acrylic paint I sponged over our new
'Triangles' stencil, tracing around the edges with a black pen when dry.
I used the left over negative of the 'Love live laugh' chipboard piece
painted 'Teal' as my title, painting behind it in black made the words
stand out, and hand painted acrylic dots in teal filled the sections o
the words that were missing. To frame the title I cut the bottom of 'My
favourite Holiday' photo section off and used the outer edge painted
black for the frame. Adding some paper dies, arrows painted with
graduating colour, a few yellow 'crosses' and a pen sketched line border
around card edge pulled it all in together.
