Natures Garden

Welcome, today I have a card using one of my older sets Natures Garden #71 from AALLandCreate.

I have been having fun with shaving foam and Distress Oxide Re-inkers this time around and I am so delighted with the vibrancy of the backdrop.

I also brayered a piece of white card with Fresco Finish Paints and then stamped my flower onto the brayered background and then cut out my flowers to add a touch more dimension to my design.

I also incorporated some tone on tone stamping using my Border Stamp #34, stamping with Fresco Finish Paint.

A torn piece of vintage book pages ground my flower and I also incorporated some delicate splatters of paint.

I love the vibrancy of this card and I love revisiting some of my older designs.

Thanks so much for popping by. Enjoy your weekend. Tracy x x

Natures Garden

Another card this time around, a little more clean in design. I love experimenting with my card designs.

The blooms from my Natures Garden Stamp Set take centre stage here and really pop against the ore muted colours of the heart.

I began by creating my own torn heart stencil from a scrap of paper and I then blended Iced Spruce and Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Inks over the aperture, blending the colours as I moved around my stencil.

I used my Date It stamp set as a background stamp to add further interest to the backdrop.

A touch of texture is included using Autour de Mwa's Stencil.

I gave my blooms a bold pop of colour to complement the more muted tones of my heart.

A few delicate splatters of paint and my card is complete.

I added a couple of Index Clips for added dimension.

The products used in this card are shown below:

DREAM

Welcome, today I have a card combining my Natures Garden stamp set with lots of texture along with my A4 Layered Grunge stamp.

I began by brayering a piece of white card with Lime Acrylic Paint from Dina Wakley, brayering a good layer to the card. I then added touches of Night and Turqoise to give depth to my design. I then repeated the process to add light layers of the same colours, brayering each colour lightly over the top. The paint was then dried with a Heat Tool.

I am loving these colours together at the moment and I love how each layer is visible and the touches of white lift the design perfectly.

The DREAM and flower heads have been stamped onto a piece of card that has been brayered with Turquoise Acrylic Paint.

I added some texture using Kassa's stencil and once the Texture Paste was completely dry I added further touches of acrylic paint.

I love the shading from the Night Acrylic Paint, a colour I am often afraid to use but I am really pleased with the combination here.

A touch of background stamping and random staples added to my flower stems along with delicate splatters of white paint complete my design.

Artful Blooms

Welcome, today I have a card for you using my A6 Natures Garden stamp set, combined with my A4 Layered Grunge Stamp from AALLandCreate, with a touch of stencilling using Kassa's stencil. You can find a list of our stockists HERE.

I created a background using my A4 Layered Grunge stamp, inking the stamp with Distress Oxides Candied Apple and Faded Jeans.

I added a touch of stencilling to the background using Kassa's stencil, which adds a touch of texture to my backdrop.

I coloured a piece of card with Candied Apple Distress Oxide Ink and then stamped my flower heads onto the coloured card, cut out and added to my background.

I added a few delicate splatters of black paint and also added my 'garden' sentiment.

A touch of hand stitching adds further texture to my design.

Thanks so much for stopping by.

Below are the stamps and stencil I used in this project.

Natures Garden

Wow the end of June, I can't quite believe where this year is going! Today I am showcasing my Natures Garden stamp set combined with my A4 Layered Grunge Stamp from AALLandCreate. You can find a list of stockists HERE, simply scroll down.

I began by brayering a layer of Dina Wakley's Fuchsia Paint across the background of my card and then added a layer of Cheddar, blending the two layers together where they meet. I then used Autour de Mwa's stencil to add further detail to the background.

I also added a touch of random stamping to the background using my A4 Layered Grunge Stamp.

I die cut three circles from white card and then coloured each one with Turquoise paint. I then stamped the Blooms onto each of the circles and then stamped them once again onto a piece of card coloured with the same paints used in the background. I then cut out each bloom and added them to the top of the first stamped image for added dimension.

I added delicate splatters of White, Fuchsia, and Cheddar Paint to the background along with more random background stamping.

I added cotton threads behind each die cut circle for added texture and interest.

I extended the stems on each bloom using a black pen.

I love how the circles draw the eye across the card.

The stamps I used for this card are highlighted below.

Dream in Flowers

Welcome to another post for AALLandCreate showcasing my Natures Garden stamp set.

I loved decorating this Etcetera tag adding lots of layered texture. I began by applying a random coat of Texture Paste to my tag and I then stamped my A4 stamp into the Texture Paste, spritzing my stamp with water first before stamping into the paste. Please remember to clean your stamp immediately with this technique. Once the paste was completely dry, I then applied a coat of Antique Linen Distress Paint to the surface and then dried with a heat tool. I then applied a second layer of paint, this time Vintage Photo Distress Paint, dried a little and then wiped back the paint with a baby wipe.

My A4 stamp set is available from our stockists listed HERE.

I cut out a circle from a remnant of fabric and frayed the edges and then stamped part of my A4 stamp onto the fabric using Acorn Archival Ink. I also added some delicate splatters of black paint and a story stick for added interest.

I stamped my flowers from my Natures Garden stamp set onto the same fabric, cut them out and then added to the bottom of my tag. This picture also highlights the wonderful texture in the background.

The fabric itself also adds further texture to the design.

I also added further stencilling to the background, adding texture paste over Autour de Mwa's stencil. I also added a scrabble tile for added dimension.

A vintage dip pen gives further dimension to the design. I also included some doodling to the edges of my tag with a black pen.

I added some of Dina Wakley's Media Tape and sstamped the text Grow onto the tape using the wording from my Quirky Blossoms stamp set.

I love mixing the stamps sets and using them all together in one cohesive design.

This piece really does have to be seen in real life to really appreciate the texture in the background.

The AALLandCreate stamp sets can be purchased from the Boutique.
