PaperArtsy challenge : Joanne Wardle

Joanne Wardle is back with PaperArtsy this week, and I was inspired to try her gift tags.

I used Egg Nog 1 stamps, and coloured them in with distress markers.
I stamped the trees thrice, once on the tag, once on masking paper and once on white card.
I masked the tag to stamp the backgrounds in sepia, and then coloured, cut out and glued on the white card trees.

PaperArtsy Challenge : Liz Borer

Liz Borer is back at PaperArtsy this week, and wow, it is really worth seeing her posts - they are amazing!
I really can't create anything near the wonderful pieces of art she created this week, but I had a go at her second project.


 
I have used Fresco paints Mermaid, Bora Bora, Beach hut, South Pacific, Stone and Snowflake
I used Grunge paste through a Crafter's Workshop stencil (I can't remember which one)
The sail boat is stamped on Crackly Tissue Paper (yes, I still have some stashed away...)
I have used Treasure Brass on the swirls (doesn't show up much in the photo)

PaperArtsy challenge : Joanne Wardle project 2

I decided to do another of Joanne Wardle's projects his week : project #2


I used the baubles from JOFY Collection 03, and the sentiment (which I only used part of to balance it) from JOFY Collection 02.
I used pencils to shade the baubles and stickles to add some sparkle.

PaperArtsy Challenge : Joanne Wardle

The week Joanne Wardle is back at PaperArtsy, with her clean and simple style of card making.
Christmas is fast approaching, so that's the theme this week.
I have followed her first project (although I added some extra stamping and a bit of doodling, sorry Joanne, I just HAD to...)



I have used JOFY Mini 06, Fresco Paints colours Tinned Peas and London Bus, and the sentiments are from JOFY Collection 02.

PaperArtsy Challenge : Liz Borer

The is week the talented Liz Borer is back at PaperArtsy with some fabulous projects.
I chose her 3rd project and created something completely different. Going through her post, at the point where she finished her background I thought : Oriental card!
I didn't have the same stencils (pity), but used what I had to sort of create the background, and add the Lynne Perrella stamp to complete the Oriental look.


I used Grunge Paste through Mini Vine and Mini Birds of a Feather stencils.
The background is painted with Fresco Paints in Inky Pool, Eggplant and Baltic Blue (with a touch of Nougat to lighten bits and for the moon)
I have used Treasure Gold - Brass to highlight the raised areas.
