SPLASHES OF COLOUR

Hello all! I am here today to share my latest creation for Kaisercraft   using this month's 'Workshop' Collection This collection is a grungy, cog filled collection,  perfect for the boys in your life! I have started by making this background page my own. I have used the 'Linear Lines Template' and the 'Clear Stamp Set' , to add some texture to my page. I have used the 'Subway Texture Decorative Die'   to die-cut these awesome subway pieces.  I have then started to build up my layers,  using some of the stickers from the 'Sticker Book' , and some of the 'Collectables' . For some of the cogs, I have used cardboard to add dimension.  I have also layered some of the stickers onto the collectable cogs.  I have added some word stickers and tags from the collectables. I have finished with this gorgeous Curio layered onto some tags. I hope you like what I have created.  Y

Hello all! I'm back today to share a canvas I have created for Bad Girls Couture 'I Choose Happiness' I have started with a balnk canvas I had at home.  I have sealed it with a coat of 'Haute Mess Gesso' . I have then used a stencil and 'Haute Mess Molding Paste' ,  to stencil a pattern onto my canvas. I have then add some colour using my 'Haute Mess Acrylic Paints' in 'Drop Dead Gorgeous' , 'Sweet Candy Kisses' and 'First Crush' . I have mixed them with water to get a natural flow on my canvas. I have then used papers, elements and die cuts in co-ordinating colours, to build up a focus for my canvas. I hope you like what I have created. Until next time!
