Shopping List
Bee Crafty Art Stamps ~ Da Vinci: Blueprint Hand
WORDage Sets: Creativity Words Small
Dinkable Honeycombe
Dinkable Spatter
Dinkable Regular Dots
Distress Ink; Seedless Preserves, Black Soot, Shaded Lilac, Dusty Concord
Distress Marker - Dusty Concord
Versafine ~ Onyx Black

* My card blank measures 5.5" square.
* I inked the Blueprint Hand with Shaded Lilac and then highlighted the shaded areas with the Distress Marker in Dusty Concord, give the stamp a huff over and then stamp. I actually used a stamping press, which meant I stamped in the Shaded Lilac first (press down) and then used my second colour (press down). Using a press does give you a chance to get the colour/shading right but if you do it the first way, you have a one off chance to get it right.
* I used the XL Science of Beauty next, well I used the dotty area just to the right of the top of her head obviously, if you haven't got this stamp then maybe find something to dip into the ink and dot  over in a similar pattern. I used the dotty part with the Shaded Lilac, Dusty Concord and a tad bit of Seedless Preserves.
* Stamp your chosen words across the card, as shown in black ink.
* I then took the Blueprint Hand stamp (held the stamp in my hand) and just inked a small portion of the script using Shaded Lilac and randomly stamped over the card. I inked again with some Dusty Concord and randomly stamped again.
* I took the Splatter Dinkable and inked through, in parts with Shaded Lilac and then Dusty Concord.
* I drew some straight lines randomly in places, using the Distress Marker. If you don't have a marker, maybe you might have a coloured pencil that matches the colours used.
* I took the Distress Marker and randomly drew through the Dinkable Honeycombe and then through the Dinkable Regular Dots.
* Finally, I took some Black Soot and inked around the edges of the card blank. I also inked/smudged in random areas on the card, as well as around the hand stamp itself.

Charlee DT - Time Flies

Morning crafters. For this weeks blog I got out my texture paste and tried mixing it with some lustre luxes. And the results were stunning.

What you'll need:

• 8x8 card blank
• 6x6 white card
• Metal Alpha inkable
• Red Flame Lustre Luxe
• Distress Oxides in fossilised amber and black soot
• Pocket watch stamp
• Time Flies
• Heat resistant acetate
• Texture paste
• Silver embossing powder

Step 1:

First blend the oxides over the 6x6 card. Once your happy on your blending matt, take a small scoop of the lustre luxe and small scoop of texture paste and mix together. Place the metal alpha inkable onto your card and secure down with some masking tape. Spread the texture paste through the inkable. When you've covered it all remove the inkable rinse off with warm soapy water and leave the card to dry.

Step 2:

On the acetate stamp the pocketwatch in versamark and heat emboss with some silver embossing powder. Repeat with the time flies sentiment and then cut them out.

Step 3:

Once the card texture paste is all dry glue the pocket watch and time flies down with some dries clear glue. Then matt with some black card and then adhere to your card blank.

That's all from me for this week. Hope you enjoyed.

Until next week

Jane DT - Nib Notebook

Hello!

For my post on the Buzzy Goings on at Bee Crafty Blog today I thought I would share one of my favourite DT samples that I made for the feathers shows with Sam last week...

I used a notebook die to cut the covers and spine for this notebook from mount board, but wanted it to be quite bright and funky.  To help achieve that I used some of the Dylusions paints, applying them with a small brayer and making sure I had dried each layer before adding the next.  The colours used were lemon zest, fresh lime and bubblegum pink...

Next I used some of the same paint and stencilled with the d'inkable regular dots, then added some white gesso through the d'inkable chevrons.  Black archival ink was stamped on in patches using the ledger stamp.  I then used the heraldic alpha set to stamp out the word 'notes' and cut them out with a circle punch.  A touch of pink distress ink was brushed around the edges.  The nibs were stamped and clear embossed before adding a touch of colour and cutting out...

I love adding a dangly charm to the side of my notebooks so used some clear shrink plastic with the quill stamp to create one.  I used staz on black ink, then coloured on the opposite side of the plastic with a bright pink alcohol pen.  I then cut the feather out and made sure to punch my hole (something I often forget!!) before shrinking it down with my heat tool.  I then created my charm using some beads, jump rings and an eye pin which was attached to the elastic that held in the pages...

 Here are links to the products I used...

* Art Stamps - Quill Feather
* Art Stamps - Nibs
* Art Stamps - Ledger
* Art Stamps - Heraldic Alpha
* D'inkables - Regular Dots
* D'inkables - Chevrons
* Dylusions Paints
* Archival Inkpads

The shows should still be available on HOCHANDA catch up, so if you didn't get a chance to see Sam's demos there is still time!

Thank you for looking and happy crafting,

Jane xx
