Guest Design Team Member ....

I used a hard cover childhood book to make this photo frame.
PS - This is my daughter, Karlien, when she was 5 years old (16 years ago now) - don't tell her, she doesn't like this photograph! LOL


HOW TO:

Cut out the top 4 pages to create the frame part. Tear off the plastified top layer of all pages, so the gesso will hold onto it. Glue all the pages together, except for the two the photograph has to be attached to. Paint the frame with a layer of gesso. Allow to dry. Add a layer of Viva Terra, and stamp into it with some (Katzelkraft) stamps to get a texture. Leave it to dry. Paint it with black acrylic paint, and while wet wipe off most of it with a damp cloth. Allow to dry. Paint with white acrylic paint, wipe off most of it with a damp cloth. Allow to dry. Buff with Pearl-ex. Mask the photograph and stamp the text (Katzelkraft) over it several times with StazOn timber brown. Use the same text and ink to stamp on the frame as well. Attach the photograph in the frame, and glue these two pages together as well with doublesided tape. To seal it all, spray it with hairspray.  

I am also entering this in the challenge on Make My Monday - anything but a card.

Challenge Art Journey - Anything But A Card! / Alles maar geen kaart!


  

HOW TO: 
The frame
Firstly put doublesided tape in the pendant in the exact circle to cover the bottom of the pendant, Be sure to leave the film that is covering it, on it until you've finished the whole frame.  This will keep the bottom clean......
Cover the pendant with some Viva Terra and stamp in it it to get some texture. Allow it to dry. 
Paint it with white acrylic paint and allow it to dry. 
Paint it with a yellow acrylic paint with a finger, whipe off most of it with a damp cloth, allow it to dry again. 
Then paint it with a dark brown acrylic paint with a finger, whipe off most of the paint, allow it to dry. 
Paint it with green acrylic paint with your finger and whipe away most of it, and allow it to dry. 
Buff it with some gold Pearl-ex, yes, also with your finger. 
Take off the film from the doublesided tape. 
Last step - go clean your fingers!
Plak een cirkelvormige dubbelzijdige plakband in precies de cirkelvorm, laat het beschermlaagje ervan er eerst op, totdat het helemaal klaar is. Dit zorgt dat de bodem van de frame schoon blijft. 
Breng Viva Terra aan op de hartvorm. Stempel erin voor tekstuur. laat het goed drogen, eventueel met de heattool. 
Verf het met witte acrylverf en laat het drogen. 
* Verf het met je vinger met gele acrylverf, veeg het meeste er af met een vochtige doek. Laat het drogen.   Herhaal de stap vanaf de * met de kleuren donkerbruin, en groen.
Breng een beetje Pearl-ex aan met je vinger.  
Haal het beschermlaagje van de dubbelzijdige tape.
Laatste stap - ga je vingers wassen!

The girl
Stamp it with brown StazOn, color it with Distress Inks. Attach it in the pendant.
Heat emboss the circle with clear embossing powder. I did this by tapping some clear embossing onto the circle, and then heated it from the bottom. This way you do not have to use embossing ink, which will smear the distress inks. 
Stempel het meisje met bruine StazOn, knip het uit op de grootte van het cirkeltje, kleur het met Distress Inkten. Plak het in de hartvorm. 
Heat emboss de cirkel met clear embossing poeder. Ik heb dit gedaan door clear embossing op de cirkel te strooien, en het van onderen te heat embossen. Op deze manier hoef je geen embossing inkt gebruiken, want dat zal de distress inkt laten uitlopen.

 Here is the link to the challenge: Simon Says Stamp challenge. 
I made this from a label that has been attached to a new pair of jeans for my 18 year old son!

 Hier de link naar de challenge: Simon Says Stamp challenge. 
Ik heb dit gemaakt van een label dat aan een nieuwe jeans hing voor mijn 18-jarige zoon! 

I stamped the stamps into Viva Terra to get the texture, and colored it, after drying of course, with different colors of acrylic paints.The back I covered with watercolor paper, sponged the edges, so it can be used as a card.

Ik heb de stempelafdrukjes gemaakt in Viva Terra, en het na droging gekleurd met verschillende kleuren acrylverf. De achterkant heb ik beplakt met aquarelpapier, de randen gesponst - zo kan het gebruikt worden als een kaart. 

STAMPS USED: 
Numbers : Stamp-It
