Marleen DT - The last few christmas cards..

Hey bloggers..

Once again wednesday and my turn for some inspiration for 

Bee Crafty

Did you see my post last week?? I made some backgrounds with some of the christmas stamps and some paints. Great fun. (Find the post HERE).
Well for today I made some more cards with these backgrounds.

Stamps I used for these projects:

 Yuletide WORDage Christmas set 1
Yuletide Set Holly Swirl tree and border

You can find them in the BeeCrafty STORE.

These 2 cards are A5 and made with the backgrounds I made for last week
(link for last weeks post, above).
I matted and layered my cards blank with black and my backgrounds sheets from last week. I then stamped with versamark and heat set with black embossing powder.

The "Xmas" on the top card is a die from my stash (sorry I dont know from what company)
I diecut it from my gelli plate sheet and also from cheap white card stock 3 times and glued them all together before adding it onto of a black card stock panel.

The "seasons greetings"is indeed a BeeCrafty stamp. Stamped with versamrk and heat set with black embossing powder on a panel of my background paper.

 And that is it from me for today. Thanks for popping by and for any comments left behind.

 Happy Crafting

Hiya and Welcome to my Monday Post for Bee Crafty

Today I am sharing with you a recent make for the Hochanda Show's with Our Bev

 

I used one of the medium MDF Tags which I painted first with white gesso to give a nice surface to stamp and ink onto... I use a brush so I get a nice brush stroke texture.

Next I inked the tag using Spun Sugar distress ink and my Bee Crafty Blending Mat in the middle area working outwards. I then used Scattered Straw distress ink around the edges.

I stamped the Line&Dot texture stamp using a gorgeous purple paint, then the Distressed Dots texture stamp using a lush Teal paint 

I decided to stamp the Inspired by DaVinci Script stamp over the whole tag using archival ink which I love as it stamps so crisp and dark even over paints and inks so it's perfect for mixed media.

To add a bit of an extra textured look I took a few pen lids and straws which I dapped into wet white and black paints to create the circle bubbles this was a sudden brain wave moment for a previous shows samples which I loved so much I had to make some more projects. I love using items from around my home which wouldn't normally be thought of as craft tools/supplies

 

For the sentiment I stamped the Dream Wordage Stamp onto watercolour cards rock that I had already trimmed to size. I then coloured the sentiment first with washes of the same paints from earlier and once dry I inked over two opposite corners using scattered straw distress ink. I matted this onto black cardstock and fixed to the tag using my hot glue gun.

I picked out some paper flowers in similar colours to the paints and inks I used. I dabbed them with black paint and a dry brush to add a darker look to them and fixed to the corners of the sentiment using hot glue gun.

I really like how this one came our as the colours are really lovely and shows mixed media can be pretty too
