Sketched Mini Book

Welcome, today I have a mini accordion, decorated using my A6 Stamp Sketched Happiness #177 from AALLandCreate. All products are available from our Stockists, which you can find HERE.

I love creating miniature projects and today I have a little accordion book. I began by die cutting my book using Eileen Hull's Needle Book Die from mountboard and I then brayered Dina Wakley Paints onto the background, using Tangerine, Lime, Turquoise and Magenta, applying the layers very lightly to my substrate.

Both the front and back covers were stamped with my quirky flowers from my Sketched Happiness stamp set.

I incorporated an accordion into my book, again adding layers of paint with my brayer. I added stamping using VersaFine Clair Ink and then added touches of colour with Gel Pens.

Torn vintage book pages add a touch more interest along with delicate splatters of white paint.

I also die cut a circle from scrap card and then used the aperture as a stencil, applying Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide Ink over the aperture, giving a further layer of interest.

I love the sentiments on this set and stamped them throughout my accordion.

Thanks so much for stopping by and leaving a comment. Tracy x x

Sketched Happiness

Today I am showcasing my newly released A6 Stamp, Sketched Happiness #177 from AALLandCreate. All the new products are available from our Stockists listed HERE.

There is something about red in a design, I love how it pops agains an inky or painted backdrop. Here I have created a brayered background, adding lots of layers of paint to give depth to the background.

A touch of stencilling in the background adds further layres of interest along with some delicate splatters of white paint.

I stamped the flowers onto a red painted background, cut them out and then added them to my card, adding a couple of stitched threads to act as stems.

I cut out two pots and added the sentiment 'Happiness' which I stapled into place. I added two gold beads to the centre of my flowers for added interest and dimension.

Bold and Beautiful

Today I am showcasing my newly released A6 Stamp, Sketched Happiness #177 combined with my older A6 stamp Doodled Blooms #140 from AALLandCreate. All the new products are available from our Stockists listed HERE.

I began by creating a background with Acrylic Paints, Cheddar, Ruby and Egg Plant, adding layers of colour to give depth to my design. I then placed Autour de Mwa's stencil over the top and wiped over the stencil with a baby wipe to remove some of the colour from the open areas on the stencil.

The majority of this card was created from leftovers remaining on my desk. I had a strip of card which I had added some acrylic paint to with my fingers and rather than bin it I used it in this piece as the colours fitted perfectly. I also incorporated some gold leaf flakes to give a touch of opulence and warmth to my piece.

I used the small hearts from my new stamp set and coloured each one with Acrylic Paints and then cut them out to add dimension to my piece. I also added a few delicate splatters of gold paint.

The strips of card were again leftovers and I also added some random hand stitching for further interest.

I added the flower from my Doodled Blooms stamp set which I stapled into place and also added a few more scraps of card.

Thanks so much for stopping by. Tracy x x
