My Creative Monday for Magenta - birdies collage

 

To create strings of structure on a background, I've used white glue and left it to dry properly. Nuance is a gorgeous medium to use to color it then .. as you can see it creates puddles of color around the edges of the dried glue. The birdies are stamped and then fussycut onto cardstock. The words and other backgrounds stamps add interest to the collage of elements.

My Creative Monday for Magenta - Leaf collage

 Another easy gelli printed background card from me today!

I tore the edges of it. 
I stamped some script in the background. 
The image was stamped onto tissuepaper, heat embossed with clear and painted white at the back; when dry adhered to the card with decoupage glue. 

The sentiment finishes it off.

My Creative Monday for Magenta - Mixed Media Card

I LOVE to make cards from scrap pieces of paper. 
The card I've made is one from pieces of gelatine prints, edges of ledger paper other pieces of leftover backgrounds. 
I scraped a little gesso over the background with a palette knife, and finished it off with stamped script and also white accents and doodles with a white acrylic marker.
That's it, lol.

My Creative Monday for Magenta - a daisy

 

Some pieces of cleanup pages from gelliprinting turn out so beautiful, tearing them for a background makes for a beautiful base for a an easy and quite simple card. 

A fussy cut and colored flower (daisy - EllieKnol Designs) and a sentiment finishes it off.

Inky Flower Collages

Using pastel colors in my creations is always such a challenge to me. 

Creating some contrast solved it on these cards and I am aware that we all have our preferences for color and their depth/hue.

Two cards from a single sheet of a monoprint from me today! 

I LOVE how this A4 sheet turned out, with all the stamping into the wet paint.

Guess what I've made with the leftover piece? 
I rolled it to be paper beads; two centimeters wide ones starting it off with a strip of 30 by 2 centimeter of white paper. I like making them like this as now it has a white core, and I don't need a big leftover piece of colorful paper to make it sturdy. They have not been glazed yet and I am sure they will look marvelous then. I might add some script stamped to it still... make them match the background of the cards more.  

As the backgrounds are quite colorful, I just added a fussy cut stamped image, and some words from a sentiment set.

 I colored the flowers with a watercolor pencil, added more of the green and yellow into the background to match the flowers.

Have a nice weekend!
