Alison CT - Lillius

Hi everyone,  today I'm sharing an art journal page created using the Doodle Art Lillius stamp set and Grande Inkables. I'm also revisiting the palette from week 4.

To begin, create a background using picked raspberry and milled lavender distress oxide. 

Place the Rainbow Dala Grande Inkable over the page and use a baby wipe to remove ink from the page by wiping over the inkable.

Blend speckled egg distress oxide through the Alpha Grande Inkable.

Blended picked raspberry distress oxide through the Bubble Stripe Grande Inkable. 

Add white splats using a white posca pen. Then stamp the grid, from Journaling Essentials 9, using Villianous Potion distress oxide. 

Next stamp the larger dots, from Journaling Essentials 9, using seedless preserve distress oxide. 

On separate card,  stamp the large Lillius using Versafine Clair Monarch ink and coloured using the distress oxides used to create the background. Cut out.

Glue to the page. 

Stamp a sentiment from the Incredible Words stamp set using VersafineClairMonarch ink,  cut out and ink the edges by rubbing gently on to the ink pad. Glue to the page.

Here's another look at the final page.

Sally CT - Moths and inkables journal pages

 

Hi there! I am here today with a journal spread that starts with inkables, so more inspiration for this month's challenge. 

I began by wiping a distress oxide ink pad across the bakewell inkable. I spritzed it with water then laid it onto the pages.

Next I smooshed some Rusty Hinge distress oxide over the top. 

When this was dry, I used the small butterfly easy frame innie to add some walnut stain distress oxide ink like a shadow. 

On a separate piece of card, I stamped the two middle-sized moths and coloured them using ecoline markers before cutting them out.  

I added some stamping using the same inks and the Journal Art Elements 3 stamp set. 

Finally I added the moths to the page using matte medium, along with a wordy sticker and a few white pen highlights to the moths.

To begin,  blend antique linen and victorian velvet distress ink over the page.

Next, blend victorian velvet ink through the circles inkable tag from set 4. Then sprits the inky side of the tag and press it down on the page.

Blend antique linen ink through the wavy lines inkable tag from set 4.

Next, blend seedless preserve distress ink through the butterfly inkable tag from set 6.

On separate card stamp three Butterflies, of different sizes, using Versafine Clair purple delight ink. Die cut them out and then blend antique linen ink over them. This helps to blend the white edges in to the page.

Add some script to the background using the script background stamp freehand with Versafine Clair morning mist ink. 

Glue the butterflies to the page, applying glue just to the body after shaping the wings with your fingers. Use purple delight ink pad to stamp the sentiment.  Inking half of it each time.

Finally add a stitched border using a gel pens and white splats using a posca pen.

Calee DT - Inkables inspiration

Hi , this week for my step by step guide I have some inspiration for Sally’s challenge  , to use Inkables . For this journal page I have combined them with the Cone Flowers catalyst collage papers.

For my colours I chose the  Bee crafty colour palette week 20 . So my first step was to collect together some ink pads and Ecoline pens .

Next I created my background using Picked Raspberry , Cracked Pistachio and Mermaid Lagoon distress inks  . These were sponged all over my page and then some ink removed with a couple of sprays of water and a few larger drops .

Then I used two Inkables and two more inks ,Mustard Seed and Rustic Wilderness to add more layers to my page .

To introduce some white back into my page I then used a third Inkable with some white texture paste creating  3 clusters of circles .

The focal images for this page were taken from the Cone Flowers catalyst collage papers A5 size. Choosing a paper with large flowers I cut them out and added some white highlights and dots with a white gel pen. At this stage I also added some white dots to my background ,drawing my design together and framing it with a white stitched border.

Taking inspiration from the colours and design of the catalyst collage paper  and using some paint pens , a few random circle were added .My finale step was to add a sentiment, for this I used the Wordy sticker 3B,giving each one a white gel pen border .

Thank you for taking a look at my page . I hope it may have given you little inspiration for using Inkables .please remember to share any makes using inkables and of course enter this month’s challenge.

 Happy crafting

Sally CT - A sparkly daisy card

 

Hi There! I have a card for you today incorporating some embossing and some faux bleaching. Here's how I made it. 

I began by blending distress inks across a 6x4" piece of satin finish card. 

I used a dinkable from set 11 to add a little more of the Mermaid Lagoon ink 

Once this was dry, I gave it a wipe with an anti-static cloth before stamping the Doodle Art Daisy in Embossing ink and heat embossing it using white embossing powder. 

I painted the daisy with water and lifted the colour using a piece of paper towel. I also gently spattered across the abandoned coral ink and lifted the colour from there too. 

using the same distress inks I stamped the border and another worker stamp around the panel.

Using some metallic watercolour paints I added some paler colours to the daisy. 

I used the same Dinkable to add ink to two corners of an A5 base card. 

I layered the inky panel on to some coordinating paper and added it to the front of the card. 

Finally here's a close up of the shimmery paint on the daisy.
