Zonnebloem in het groen..


I chose to showcase this beautiful sunflower stamp from Inkerbell on a piece of beautiful scrapbookpaper. Green, yes green! 

Vandaag heb ik gekozen om de mooie zonnebloem mooi uit te laten komen op een mooi stukje scrapbookpapier. Groen, ja groen!

12 tags of 2016 - June


 My tag for the June challenge in the 12 tags of 2016 from Tim Holtz!

All stamps, stencil and die are from Ranger/Stampers Anonymus.
I did some faux stitching instead of real stitching! 
In real life the colors are warmer.. a more blueish green and terra and yellow.
The image is from an old diary from Marjolein Bastin.

Art Journal page with a butterfly.


I decided to just play, no DT-work, and then saw this challenge on the Simon Says Stamp challenge: a tic-tac-toe... easy!

I chose stamp, stencil and spray from it.
I used a custom made pearl spray to color the background.

I think I will add some black stamping in the background .... so this might be a work in progress. 


Hope you like it!

Elegant bird...


It's so much fun to just play with color and stamps!
After making the background with a custom made pearl spray, I decolored the image with bleach. I whitened the bubbles with some gesso, and colored the others with a watercolor pencil.   

  

Have stamping fun!

"Dank je wel"..

A card for the Inkerbell DT blog today.. I like how this has turned out. 
The base is a part of an A4 monoprint. I colored the flowers with blue ink.. not happy...  pearlescent creamy and blue Panpastel.... still not happy... I added white accents with an acrylic marker, and added some touches of orange and red watercolor pencil. 
LOVE the effect!



It's really a one-of-kind card, I like that!


The poppy stamp is from Inkerbell Stamps!

Dream and Reality ...

I scraped some gesso over the background - that's why it has some whiter spots in the background.
LOVE these stamps!

ATC delicate

Hebben jullie de mooie ATC stempels van Inkerbell al gezien? Zo handig om te gebruiken bij het maken van je ATC's.
 ATC's maak ik vaak van een restje achtergrond. Dit was bijna in de prullenbak beland, een Art Journal pagina, omdat het papier alle kleur als het ware opzoog, en aan de achterkant er door kwam. Vond het toch jammer om het weg te gooien... en heb het in stukken gesneden om 3 kaarten en een ATC te maken.
Hierbij dus de ATC. Ik vindt het delicate in de kleuren heel mooi passen bij het bijtje!

and the prize is 5 containers of Infusions (as shown). 

 
Infusions are water soluble particles with 2 components: dye colour pigment suitable for paper/ fabric, mixed with Walnut Stain.
The colour powder particles dissolve faster than the walnut crystals, so you can control the colour-to-brown stain ratio!

Many thanks.. you brighten my day!


I had a nice play with a round gelliplate again, and some water diluted Fresco acrylic paint (from Paper Artsy), a blue and yellow. You can see how this nicely blended into a green in the middle of the plate. I achieved that by brayering over the plate before pulling a print.




Have a good (stamping) time!

Delicate leaves on two ATC's ..


The backgrounds have been made with Nuance on the cardstock and misted with water (first one) and by stamping with Nuance on an acrylic block (second one). 
I've stamped on both with inking the bigger leaves stamp with aqua markera and misting with water. The second smaller leave has been stamped with a brown ink. 
I've added extra color with a watercolor pencil, and highlights with an acrylic pen.
The script has been white heat embossed. 


Happy stamping!
