My Creative Monday for Magenta - butterfly collage

I LOVE the two new butterflies in the collection .. to showcase them I added the older little bee to the collage. 

The background is a gelliprint on a round gelliplate with the flowery mask, to which I decoupaged tissue paper. 

I have this tissue paper in my stash; ready to use in any collage. I stamped the butterfly collage, 40.327.N, onto this said tissue paper with a black ink. 

I hope you like it!

My Creative Monday for Magenta - Girl Collage 2

As promised last week: a colorful version of the butterfly collage stamp. 

The background has been made on a Histor sample of a very light blue paint. As it is a watercolor background I could easily remove the color from within the stamped images. I painted parts of the images with a water-diluted acrylic paint, then added color to part of the images. 
I finished the collage by stamping some tiny flowers around it.

Sketchy Leaves ATC's

Hi there, 
Ellie here with you today sharing a fun technique for a large background (masterboard) to be cut up to make several cards and ATC's. 
I will only share the finished ATC's today. 

****

Adhere several smaller torn pieces of colored paper and book paper to a large piece of sturdy paper. Choose the colored paper's colors from a moodboard or other source so they will match the colors you want your background to be when finished.
 Leave to dry.  
Cover the whole surface with watered-down white gesso using a palette knife. Immediately dab gesso away from areas you want to preserve more than other parts with a damp cloth.
Leave to dry.  

Stamp with several background stamps in several colors onto the  background as shown. 
Leave to dry. 
Add extra color (I added light green only) to the background. 

Now cut it up to the size of ATC's and cards. 

For today's post I finished the four ATC's only, I will share the four cards on a later date. 
Enjoy!  

Above the four ATC's I've made adhering fussy cut images and words to it. 

This is such an easy way to create multiple backgrounds in one go.

Hope you like it and got inspired.
