'Tis The Season

Hi and welcome. Today I have a seasonal card. I am in the midst of lots of deadlines but I have taken a few hours break to make a few more seasonal cards.

I created a textural card using a bauble stencil along with texture paste. I applied the texture paste randomly to give more texture to the design.

I then sprinkled some Infusions 'A Bit Jaded' onto my card and then spritzed with water. I am using a 300gsm card so this can take all the medium that I am applying.

I also added a touch of the Infusions to the inside of my card just to add a little more detail to my design.

I love the touches of walnut in the Infusions, it adds to the vintage feel of the card.

I added some Distress Crayon Salty Ocean around the outside of my bauble and smudged with a finger. I also included a ChitChat Sticker and an Adornment Star embellishment. I added a few scribbly lines around the outside of my card for a touch more detail.

Thanks so much for stopping by.

Dreamer!

Today I have been creating with Trish Latimer's WhimsyGirl Three, one of Trish's newly released stamps, which you can find HERE.

I opted to use Trish's stamp in conjunction with PaperArtsy Infusions to give her a mixed media feel.

I applied Grunge Paste through one of Tim Holtz number stencils and then added the Infusions to colour; layering the colour bit by bit until I was happy with the depth.

I applied Grunge Paste through Tim Holtz Stars Layering Stencil onto her dress and again coloured with Infusions. I added two layers to her dress for added dimension. She is also holding a small wooden star to echo the stars on her dress.

I added white highlights with a white pen and added splatters of white paint to add contrast to the design.

I also added a circle of white paint using an old lid along with a touch of shading around the edge of the Whimsy Girl using Pumice Stone Distress Marker. The circle of paint acts as a spotlight to the image. I added a touch of colour to her face and hair with pencil crayons.

Thanks Trish for the opportunity to use one of your fabulous stamps.
