Hi everybody! I'm almost ashamed to say that this is my first post of 2019! I've had a little break as real life events have needed my attention. I'm now, very pleased to have a bit more time on my hands! Whilst visiting some of my favourite blogs, I noticed that over at 'A Vintage Journey', they were having their 5th week in the month 'Tag Friday'. I love making tags, so I thought I'd join in.</div>

I started off by creating a textured background, using a wonderful little Dyan Reavely stencil and some modelling paste. The stencil was part of a Ranger freebie given away with with one of the craft magazines. As the stencil was smaller than the tag, I re-positioned it couple of times allowing the modelling paste to dry each time. I then used my newly acquired Distress Oxide Sprays to colour the surface. It's the first time I've used them and was impressed by how well they covered the textured surface. </div>

This was how it looked after the first layer of colours. I decided, eventually to use more blue, but was pleased that the amber colour shows through slightly just adding a little glow. I used my favourite bird stamp for the focal image. I hope all the bird watchers out there will allow me a little artistic licence, as I'm pretty sure it's really a Sparrow but has been transformed by the magic of Distress Crayons into a Blue Tit!<br />

The flowers were made using Tim Holtz's Spiral Flowers Thinlits Dies. I love these dies and haven't used them nearly enough! </div>

The letters that spell the word 'Fly', have been die cut in thin copper sheet using one of Tim's Bigz alphabet dies. I then used a soldering iron and covered the surface of each letter with solder. This is a technique I learnt when I followed the 'Wanderlust' course the other year. It's something I will certainly be doing more of as I love the pewter type finish,</div>

Hello Artsy Friends,<br />
I’m super excited and honored to be the Guest Designer for Stamps and Stencils’ December Challenge - It's got to be Christmas! <br />
<br />
My name is Ann Chuang. I live in Taipei, Taiwan and work full-time as a Junior high school teacher. I enjoy playing with stamps, stencils, inks, paints, die cuts, etc. in my leisure time. <br />
<br />
For today’s challenge - It's got to be Christmas! I must confess that I love Christmas theme very much. So when I knew the theme of the challenge, I was very happy. The following is how I made my card.<br />

It's Sue here with you today for the
start of the new challenge but also the end of a journey. The December
challenge will be the last one for Stamps and Stencils, we have had alot
of fun over the three years we have been together but now it's time for
a change in direction. I personally want to thank everyone who has
visited us and those who have participated in our challenges. I also
want to thank the Design Team for producing fantastic projects month
after month and some amazing Inspirational Posts. So now it's time to
share the theme for this last challenge. <b>It's got to be Christmas! </b>Possibly predictive but as everyone
gets busy for the festive season time seems to disappear at a fast pace,
so we're keeping it simple . For this challenge we want to keep it
festive and see your Christmas themed creations, just remember it must
be mixed media and include stamping and/or stencilling.<br />

Hi everyone, <a href="https://argeum.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"><i><span style="color: purple;">Ruth</span></i></a> here with this weeks Inspiration post. Keeping with the theme of Toni's challenge using bright colours I decided to seek out some of the really bright backgrounds from a Gelli printing session that were also a bit 'uninspiring' or 'not quite sure what I'm going to do with those' and use them to make some quick cards; with Christmas fast approaching they also have a seasonal take.<br />

<![endif]-->Hello everyone! My name is Martina Stoycheva. I`m from Bulgaria and live in a small town on Black Sea coast named Burgas, with my husband Stanislav and my 4 years old daughter Ava. My interest in scrapbooking started in 2015. I was making albums for my little (then baby) girl. Almost two years later I found mixed media. It was an instant love. So much freedom to create, so much possibilities. <br />
I was making cards for a few months and then slowly discovered layouts, canvases and off the page projects. I love using paints, pastes, powders, different textures. I like all pretty things and exploring new products. You will see me using flowers often, but then you will see projects without flowers. <br />
It all depends on my inspiration and where it comes from. I really hope I can bring up some inspiration for you. <br />
<br />
Hugs <br />
<br />
Martina<br />

It is Cec here and I am presenting the Inspiration Post this time and have created a very bright heart to share with you. I usually like to make my inspiration posts follow the current challenge but since I live in Canada where we do not celebrate Bonfire Night, I decided this post would be about something colourful and not something directly related to the celebration held on November 5th each year.<br />
<br />
Here is how to make this canvas with the products I used:<br />
<ul>
<li>Using Mod Podge or some soft gel medium coat an 8"x8" canvas board with white tissue paper that has been crumpled up and then opened up again</li>
<li>Cover the tissue with a coat of White Gesso (Liquitex)</li>
</ul>
<br />

<br />
<ul>
<li>Spray the canvas with Lemon Zest, Squeezed Orange, Bubblegum Pink and Cherry Pie Ink Sprays (Dylusions)</li>
<li>Soften the look slightly by spraying the canvas with White Linen ink spray (Dylusions)</li>
</ul>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: "arial" , "tahoma" , "helvetica" , "freesans" , sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">Hi it's Toni here and I've got a 'bonfire night' challenge for you this month. As a child, I used to love bonfire night. My dad would come home from work with a box of fireworks and packets of sparklers. We couldn't wait to get outside and enjoy the show! Fireworks and fire, are used in celebrations all around the world. I'd love to see your art works based on fire and fireworks. Think bursts of colour, let rip with colour sprays, glitter, and paints, in fact whatever you like ! Let's have a bit of fun and brighten up these dark days with COLOUR ! Just remember it must be mixed media and must include stamps or stencils or even both. I'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with.</span><br />

<br />
For today’s challenge - Spooky Fun with an Autumnal twist, I must confess that I’m not really into the spooky things, especially that I don’t have little children around me for some years. Yet I’ve decided to challenge myself to create an Autumnal tag with spooky elements. It’s fun to explore something out of my comfort zone. The following is how I made my tag. <br /><br />1. Stamp text (Stampers Anonymous/Tim Holtz) with brown shadow ink on a watercolor paper tag.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUoHLpB3SwjsuaXT7OMfZRbvrwW52_U1zlIWwZZgwNdupD99pK7lM64R0arbQneH_mD9aOz3kHysQyeMvhuy7v4TW79xDMrAnMygineVs8W_7KmBqERBtPO8iNmSfIdeslURGTehW2A4c/s1600/Autumnal+Spooky+Fun+Step+1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1215" data-original-width="1209" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUoHLpB3SwjsuaXT7OMfZRbvrwW52_U1zlIWwZZgwNdupD99pK7lM64R0arbQneH_mD9aOz3kHysQyeMvhuy7v4TW79xDMrAnMygineVs8W_7KmBqERBtPO8iNmSfIdeslURGTehW2A4c/s320/Autumnal+Spooky+Fun+Step+1.jpg" width="318" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
<br />
2. Apply various Distress Inks on tag.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />3. Die cut several leaves die (Sizzix/Tim Holtz) to create a DIY stencil.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEioSUyjTInZ_y7-MEuiURbNHIZ2VAc6swO7EAF7SUxuqXsTyq34PCZsUnLyR1LmeyD08yKfqOFdnW02UwIRILC1xTI9twtZu1jmnPV1TCqtSV7_q98f67na8hf2mVBLXID9D8QlpsvZM9U/s1600/Autumnal+Spooky+Fun+Step+3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1027" data-original-width="1550" height="212" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEioSUyjTInZ_y7-MEuiURbNHIZ2VAc6swO7EAF7SUxuqXsTyq34PCZsUnLyR1LmeyD08yKfqOFdnW02UwIRILC1xTI9twtZu1jmnPV1TCqtSV7_q98f67na8hf2mVBLXID9D8QlpsvZM9U/s320/Autumnal+Spooky+Fun+Step+3.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br /><br />4. Apply several Distress Inks over the DIY Leave Stencil to create a tone-on-tone effect.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5GGNKD82SL1oJjEbF-gsopS1yvD5bOGmdU2lGxzOUOKytATFlCdy03UfP-NKdDzgapuiKoVnPpGRJlcqQI-y4Xp7-qGe9gNFtvLwp5yYn4WlJMhc8Z1iAln4wSfz2dbMLEva5nka3g9g/s1600/Autumnal+Spooky+Fun+Step+4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1086" data-original-width="1422" height="244" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5GGNKD82SL1oJjEbF-gsopS1yvD5bOGmdU2lGxzOUOKytATFlCdy03UfP-NKdDzgapuiKoVnPpGRJlcqQI-y4Xp7-qGe9gNFtvLwp5yYn4WlJMhc8Z1iAln4wSfz2dbMLEva5nka3g9g/s320/Autumnal+Spooky+Fun+Step+4.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />5. Spread a thin layer of Texture Paste over the Gothic Stencil (Stampers Anonymous/Tim Holtz) on tag.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6WnezwHnvWSCC6E2XKFdeSxPT4mjcp6WNNVzEHFKMush7coJB95D0Br149HkNe_d4wSxoFUToxmCz5lnqkTS-BkT7g2ZEYB06rlamEAqiAFRNnWudStGWV-g2YhI1YFavbYemJp6zHgY/s1600/Autumnal+Spooky+Fun+Step+5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1279" data-original-width="1407" height="290" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6WnezwHnvWSCC6E2XKFdeSxPT4mjcp6WNNVzEHFKMush7coJB95D0Br149HkNe_d4wSxoFUToxmCz5lnqkTS-BkT7g2ZEYB06rlamEAqiAFRNnWudStGWV-g2YhI1YFavbYemJp6zHgY/s320/Autumnal+Spooky+Fun+Step+5.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />6. When dry, the Texture Paste will absorb some of the Distress Inks. Further apply several Distress Inks over the DIY Leave Stencil to enhance the tone-on-tone effect over the raised texture paste pattern.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghxc0qrvF_jNIqm30WFNJqHN9IqBHCUJ0x3JJ9IerpuBM5KzpyeTfo4bmrLRSNi5KBLPIcXf6JH3tHrRrS-1XJ7zI6dYVYvr9rcnFKe3sieEGuAhDUN0zEhhRpv7FOlFT28ji1SVB437I/s1600/Autumnal+Spooky+Fun+Step+6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1553" data-original-width="1195" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghxc0qrvF_jNIqm30WFNJqHN9IqBHCUJ0x3JJ9IerpuBM5KzpyeTfo4bmrLRSNi5KBLPIcXf6JH3tHrRrS-1XJ7zI6dYVYvr9rcnFKe3sieEGuAhDUN0zEhhRpv7FOlFT28ji1SVB437I/s320/Autumnal+Spooky+Fun+Step+6.jpg" width="246" /></a></div>
<br />
7. Stamp Halloween elements (Stampers Anonymous/Tim Holtz) in black, die cut and color. Stamp text (Stampers Anonymous/Tim Holtz) in VersaMark and Heat Emboss in white on a black card scrap.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

It's <a href="http://www.stampingsuestyle.com/2018/10/autumnal-match-box.html" target="_blank">Sue</a> here and today I'm sharing an Autumnal match box. This was a sheer fluke in terms of where the idea came from, I had just finished a box of matches and was about to throw the box away when ......<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWiGRF3cWGIxqVUZKzrpIteugd5Ua5-x74YrZa9obtiMRZNdMauymEXfu7h9e51LtWxjOW6ACEGhAHJZTTz9PjieySEhsEZbNWUzekjy-PnmAbtPeiFckGv_cfrHLtmmMey2C8B_VhFWU/s1600/Matchbox_1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1333" data-original-width="1600" height="332" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWiGRF3cWGIxqVUZKzrpIteugd5Ua5-x74YrZa9obtiMRZNdMauymEXfu7h9e51LtWxjOW6ACEGhAHJZTTz9PjieySEhsEZbNWUzekjy-PnmAbtPeiFckGv_cfrHLtmmMey2C8B_VhFWU/s400/Matchbox_1.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
I had an idea and grabbed the Gesso ! The sun also came out at this point so apologies for the shadows ! <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinTn2oivqAepZsdeaqOyBcasxdYLIj0q9w1HjilFyIg3gy34qkMVFL77F3Ci8AIsX9CAEpl5RvOEDJhnP5QDu8JuFW3B8FTLKwT-J0j8eV4AFquyQMxA4BqsR0DmlSaYVec3tJgmXM-kE/s1600/Babywipe_2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1214" data-original-width="1600" height="302" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinTn2oivqAepZsdeaqOyBcasxdYLIj0q9w1HjilFyIg3gy34qkMVFL77F3Ci8AIsX9CAEpl5RvOEDJhnP5QDu8JuFW3B8FTLKwT-J0j8eV4AFquyQMxA4BqsR0DmlSaYVec3tJgmXM-kE/s400/Babywipe_2.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
I also grabbed my Amsterdam acrylics, which seem to be my go to at the moment. The Gesso creates some wonderful texture and the paint, applied with a baby wipe, really highlights it. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjm64qF-BEUQv_I_RpNSVBYO3EPFhOHzJynR1QzxZJc-VxpSlS5TgkV7FFEKdttufX961TOr1wC8MztCoY00QRQYhlGKcs0LMxCZQ2wI-KemCUEEu_5osfntIBA_kB8JCWqNNM7eEeyAFw/s1600/TH+stamp_3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1237" data-original-width="1600" height="308" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjm64qF-BEUQv_I_RpNSVBYO3EPFhOHzJynR1QzxZJc-VxpSlS5TgkV7FFEKdttufX961TOr1wC8MztCoY00QRQYhlGKcs0LMxCZQ2wI-KemCUEEu_5osfntIBA_kB8JCWqNNM7eEeyAFw/s400/TH+stamp_3.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
A real change about too are the stamps I've used, the above is a Tim Holtz stamp that I've only used once but I do love the script. I've used Amsterdam acrylic to stamp on to the box. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8jKp6Qr_O2i2nHthlBoop1adjC3IpT37PWcNxxnjCV9ZML7ayo-N_azdKcnlQUJzUBvDfDZjet_dZ9RgwP0M3yuaZhS77wrT_VsbA5-Jlg-AKBp5idat9344N7HSoLzTUOVJ6USLKXbQ/s1600/Stencil_4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1321" data-original-width="1600" height="330" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8jKp6Qr_O2i2nHthlBoop1adjC3IpT37PWcNxxnjCV9ZML7ayo-N_azdKcnlQUJzUBvDfDZjet_dZ9RgwP0M3yuaZhS77wrT_VsbA5-Jlg-AKBp5idat9344N7HSoLzTUOVJ6USLKXbQ/s400/Stencil_4.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
Some bits of washi tape are added then some stencilling, using cut 'n' dry foam as the box isn't strong enough to stand me pounding on it with a stencil brush ! <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhEE11-xqk7TKWh0aVxvbCcbFl0qyv8bpo4IkxO9dwXWPDY4kxHFxB2Uh_ubX871U6C-TAThftzG11GCrDe0lCs1f4CUpLWK3_yopb_hSRXlYe1waMujztVWFvIk9CyPSP53c9eYe6yA4c/s1600/White+EP_5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1571" data-original-width="1600" height="392" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhEE11-xqk7TKWh0aVxvbCcbFl0qyv8bpo4IkxO9dwXWPDY4kxHFxB2Uh_ubX871U6C-TAThftzG11GCrDe0lCs1f4CUpLWK3_yopb_hSRXlYe1waMujztVWFvIk9CyPSP53c9eYe6yA4c/s400/White+EP_5.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
More stencilling and stamping, with Tim Holtz stamps and a Wendy Vecchi stamp, all done with Amsterdam acrylics. A little bit of smudging with Gesso then stamping the script stamp again and embossing with white EP. <br />
<br />

How are you? I hope you are well. Time for a new challenge at Stamps and stencils this month ...I would love to see your mixed media makes with a Spooky theme, but if Spooky is not your thing then Autumnal colours also fit the bill ! - you can make anything you like as long as it is in a mixed media style and involves stamps or stencils!!! Enjoy!<br />

My project is very a cute fishy themed card using stamps from Elenazinski at Paperartsy.<br />

Next I added some more alcohol ink direct to the yupo and added some blending solution allowing it to run.</div>
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I then used the felt and applicator to try and pull the green into a more recognisable plant like shape. If you squint a bit you might be able to see! </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Next I got the alcohol lift ink out and my stamps of choice - I figure these stamps are pretty open to be a great choice for the technique but here's what I managed to achieve.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKmkNS9RcNY-IYYmC47ezNS6TzdHAjf25z0ZaxtL7jXjI6F1JmxihWuFMhyQfFHjNEB53xPRMpXlM6pLtbfLqvxxOmFMa0kPjHAQqdMscToRYOaXipp3w8yZGwAVRIR2K8PDEBA53rZ709/s1600/insp5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1038" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKmkNS9RcNY-IYYmC47ezNS6TzdHAjf25z0ZaxtL7jXjI6F1JmxihWuFMhyQfFHjNEB53xPRMpXlM6pLtbfLqvxxOmFMa0kPjHAQqdMscToRYOaXipp3w8yZGwAVRIR2K8PDEBA53rZ709/s320/insp5.jpg" width="207" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I applied the lift ink to the stamp then stamped onto the yupo and off again onto the card. After stamping on the yupo you need to carefully dab any excess ink off. </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Next I used a stencil and some lift ink re-inker and applied that on some clean felt using the applicator tool.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I really like this result!</div>
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Finally I added the cut out stamped images and made it look like an underwater scene, in my mind the fish at the bottom are more ghost like and harder to see then those at the top! I added the sentiment as a bit of a play on my family name.</div>

<![endif]-->Hello everyone, I’m so excited to be here at Stamps & Stencils as Guest Designer for their <a href="https://stampsandstencils.blogspot.com/2018/09/its-been-while.html">It's been a while...</a> challenge this month. <br /><br />My name is Jo and I blog at <a href="https://letsartjournal.wordpress.com/">Let’s Art Journal</a>. I live by the sea in the North West of England with my hubby and I started Art Journaling nearly 3 years ago as a way of expressing my life through words and pictures. I love using mixed media for all sorts of projects, with stamps and stencils often featuring in my designs. I’m captivated by the variety of techniques and materials that can be used to create so many different styles of art. I’ve always been a creative person, and this has now become a passion of mine which I like to share with others.<br />
<br />
<br />

<br />I am often inspired by things I see and do, so my art journal page today is inspired by rainbow colours and sunshine to mark the end of summer. I had so much fun layering all the different stamps and stencils to create my page, I hope you like it!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEig7bHNruWdY4DRetd6oWXHCEbZhzcxdOj7LvgNB3KetBn0Aofxu-tEjBpDTDQJWA_zE7V3AxC1kYBJPLOvylkxGSyTRlb5dSuuojfBRsJcJ4T3TxzND1qZE50s3MF5VApoxOWAPg2jrUQ/s1600/Step+1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="450" data-original-width="600" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEig7bHNruWdY4DRetd6oWXHCEbZhzcxdOj7LvgNB3KetBn0Aofxu-tEjBpDTDQJWA_zE7V3AxC1kYBJPLOvylkxGSyTRlb5dSuuojfBRsJcJ4T3TxzND1qZE50s3MF5VApoxOWAPg2jrUQ/s320/Step+1.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
I started by adding strips of old book pages, washi tape and homemade sheet music decoupage paper to the centre of the page using matte gel medium.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg03V9QS6jEmh4ci78yU0HQv-p-tQhpLpVWR0Dfn2rqAZDyJp007x423O92BJF6508yLgaMsNs2znJ19Oxoap7TmxT5kVqZkdEi9JioNVWCVgTUVZpvNNGSJjyX-iAUbGakNB2xBt0y8bg/s1600/Step+2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="434" data-original-width="600" height="231" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg03V9QS6jEmh4ci78yU0HQv-p-tQhpLpVWR0Dfn2rqAZDyJp007x423O92BJF6508yLgaMsNs2znJ19Oxoap7TmxT5kVqZkdEi9JioNVWCVgTUVZpvNNGSJjyX-iAUbGakNB2xBt0y8bg/s320/Step+2.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
Then I applied Faber-Castell Gelatos by scribbling them onto the page and smudging the colour with my finger which I wet using a baby wipe so they blended together easily. I find that using a baby wipe to wet my finger provides just the right amount of moisture to ensure the gelatos smudge perfectly.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9U-svVI4OOLW23GYxw-HMDMJi774KHjdgcDwDC5At050uh_yMTn0KjCAzYxSxflSGRdt2bL0vaZwEQlvOW5qvcDXfYqbWbuE0o3-E_g9EkLTJr0TG2GOiBpQx2wkFJwqaLShkvLXRKUo/s1600/Step+3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="446" data-original-width="600" height="237" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9U-svVI4OOLW23GYxw-HMDMJi774KHjdgcDwDC5At050uh_yMTn0KjCAzYxSxflSGRdt2bL0vaZwEQlvOW5qvcDXfYqbWbuE0o3-E_g9EkLTJr0TG2GOiBpQx2wkFJwqaLShkvLXRKUo/s320/Step+3.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
I stamped a sponge stamp design from Finnabair and also a Collage Numbers stamp from Gummiapan Stamps using black Archival Ink. Next I used a baby wipe through a dot stencil to erase some of the gelato colour and create the white dots.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3Na6gafizEhoCt_iBSxC2Le2ALasaMlECajbwr7ynOT4dTCYOPqI5woVYe9906r_w2415BmcG6gXkpjr5jOM73rWnsoe0eJ9Wfh5zuwrxY9dnbFWqdZTL4r6u5OlPCSdR2YKGhtMdxmo/s1600/Step+4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="833" data-original-width="590" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3Na6gafizEhoCt_iBSxC2Le2ALasaMlECajbwr7ynOT4dTCYOPqI5woVYe9906r_w2415BmcG6gXkpjr5jOM73rWnsoe0eJ9Wfh5zuwrxY9dnbFWqdZTL4r6u5OlPCSdR2YKGhtMdxmo/s320/Step+4.jpg" width="226" /></a></div>
<br />Then I stamped a circle stamp from Gummiapan Stamps using black Archival Ink and added high density white gesso through a Wheels stencil by Dina Wakley using a palette knife.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYTyV3aSsFaMLmOqyEBef-AYB8g08HlPkBxSX9ZIbIqcml0Df7kAQXzqkqX114_5rNHTXKoZT69QEr5jraeWNCE_s_XFA129ZU0QzMC9nkVhyphenhyphenAhwaCkkv9PEgZHH7qyBKBYl8fuKaqZMU/s1600/Step+5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="760" data-original-width="600" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYTyV3aSsFaMLmOqyEBef-AYB8g08HlPkBxSX9ZIbIqcml0Df7kAQXzqkqX114_5rNHTXKoZT69QEr5jraeWNCE_s_XFA129ZU0QzMC9nkVhyphenhyphenAhwaCkkv9PEgZHH7qyBKBYl8fuKaqZMU/s320/Step+5.jpg" width="252" /></a></div>
<br />
I took an old book page and stamped some butterflies by Graphic 45 from Hampton Arts onto it using black Archival Ink and fussy cut them out.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqNHBSyRto43uIO8lCa79sIimKJ3Z3K1VmrEVVlAg6Tfb9zj3RnqHwRFO-ixhHTlIto1Sf0FN0gltrpLMXXBJs-IhBEXZ21qegDS9iAQ-Ou9o-bG5bLk8Y59KqAIY30WP3IKDO3r5lYO4/s1600/Step+6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="436" data-original-width="600" height="232" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqNHBSyRto43uIO8lCa79sIimKJ3Z3K1VmrEVVlAg6Tfb9zj3RnqHwRFO-ixhHTlIto1Sf0FN0gltrpLMXXBJs-IhBEXZ21qegDS9iAQ-Ou9o-bG5bLk8Y59KqAIY30WP3IKDO3r5lYO4/s320/Step+6.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
The butterflies are stuck in place using matte gel medium and when dry, I added more detail to them using a black Uni Posca paint pen. I splattered black and white acrylic paint over the page with a paintbrush after adding the motivational words which are rub-on transfers. To finish, I outlined the wheels with a black Uni Pin marker so they stood out more.<br />

Hi everyone, <i><a href="http://argeum.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Ruth</a></i> here this week experimenting with a 'Sunprint Kit' that I've had for a while and just never got around to using until now. The kit contains photosensitive paper (cyanotype) which you expose to light. The resulting images can then be used in a number of ways and as this months challenge is <i>'Anything Goes'</i> I thought it would be a perfect opportunity to dabble.<br />
<br />

The kit is fairly readily available and comes in a variety of sizes and the one I've used is the smallest 10x10 cm. It's great fun for children and suitable for 6 years and over...so I thought I would be safe to be let loose with it!</div>

It's so simple, card + paper + object + expose to sunlight and you can use a negative or a 3D object. Here in the UK we have had a glorious summer and I wanted to preserve some of the lovely foliage and flowers that have bloomed in the garden. Yes it took a little experimenting as the sun was so bright I overexposed some of the papers and also wasted one as I didn't separate 2 of them...but got it down to a fine art by the end, 1 minute! Once exposed you rinse in water and dry the paper.<br />
<br />

All 12, 'disasters' included. Some images were very crisp as I used sunlight through a window, but some wafted a bit when I tried leaving them outside but I really liked the variety achieved. So how to use them?<br />

I've recently inherited a huge pack of index cards which I'm really pleased about as I've seen a few challenges recently using them. I scraped glass blue and venice blue fresco paint on to a card.<br />

I brayered some tango paint on and knocked back with snowflake paint.<br />

For the card I wanted to echo the blue again and returned to one of the first techniques I ever tried, versamark stamping and mica powders.<br />

I hope you can see the lovely shimmer, I decided to use one of Lin Browns grasses stamps as a background and keep the decoration simple.<br />

I also used a kraft IC on this card, a little stamping, stitching and silver paint splashes....to be honest they are more like blobs as the paint was far too thick but I rather liked the effect....happy accident.<br />

I know there are other supplies such as toners for fabric and paper if I wanted to step it up a notch but I'm happy enough with these results. I hope you've enjoyed my first experiments and as it's an anything goes challenge, dig out something you've had for ages and just have a play, we'd love to see what you create and there's plenty of time to join in.

Being creative often leads you in different
directions and sometimes it isn't until you start that you know where
you are heading. For this challenge I thought that as we've not done it
for a while it would be good to let your creative spirit wander and have
a theme of Anything Goes. Your project must be mixed media and include
stamping and/or stencilling but apart from that it's up to you !<br />
<br />
The team have created some fantastic projects to get your creative juices flowing ! <br />

It is Cec here and I am sharing an Inspiration post with you. Since there is still a couple of weeks left before our <a href="https://stampsandstencils.blogspot.com/2018/08/industrialgrungy.html" target="_blank">current challenge</a> called Industrial/Grungy ends, I thought I would show you how to make a simple mixed media canvas with an industrial vibe.<br />
<br />
Here are the steps to creating this canvas - the products I used are in brackets but you can use whatever you have available:<br />
<br />
1. Coat a 6" x 8" canvas board with White Gesso (Liquitex).<br />
2. Use a brayer to add layers of paint - Space Cadet. Lake Wanaka and Cinnamon Fresco Finish (Paper Artsy) leaving some bits of white showing.<br />
3. Repeat this on a piece of heavy card stock using more of the Lake Wanaka paint, which is the darker of the two blues.<br />
<br />

<br />
4. Using Watering Can Archival Ink (Wendy Vecchi) add stamping with stamps from Faded Fragments (Seth Apter) and Shine Bright (IndigoBlu).<br />
<br />

<br />
4. Add stenciling with the Watering Can Archival Ink and a stencil called Measured (Tim Holtz)<br />
5. Paint small wood strips with Gunmetal Gray Metallic Acrylic Paint (Folk Art).<br />
<br />

<br />
6. Using Jet Black Archival Ink (Ranger) stamp three gentlemen from Curious Possibilities set (Tim Holtz) onto heavy card stock and fussy cut. <i>These fellows remind me of rich Captains of Industry from the late 1800s and early 1900s such as J.P. Morgan, Andrew Carnegie, Andrew W. Mellon, Henry Ford and John D. Rockefeller. The term often overlapped the term Robber Barons - hmmm!<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"> </span></span></i><br />
7. Ink image with Hickory Smoke Distress Ink (Tim Holtz).<br />
<br />
To assemble:<br />
<br />
1. Using Soft Gel Medium (Golden) glue wood strips to card stock panel to create corners.<br />
2, Add card stock panel to canvas board with dimensional foam.<br />
3. Add image to panel with dimensional foam.<br />
4. Using Soft Gel Medium add a variety of metal embellishments - Gears and Ruler (Bead Landing), Brads (Making Memories), Light Bulb Clip that I cut apart (The Paper Source).<br />
<br />
There you have it, another Industrial/Grungy project. Remember that lots of layers of paint makes for a grungy look and the metals can be anything you have on hand even if they don't match one another - just take alcohol ink, embossing powder or paint to them to unify the colour if that is what you want.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4290520564708396537.post-1067157721427977242018-08-16T07:00:00.000+01:002018-08-16T07:00:04.811+01:00Welcome to today's guest designer, Nikki !

<div class="MsoNormal">
I am Nikki, from <a href="https://frankieeatsworms.blogspot.com/">Addicted to Art</a>. I live in
Hampshire in the UK, although originally from the Midlands. I have been
crafting since late 2013 when a friend introduced me to the world of mixed
media, cardmaking and scrapbooking. My style is eclectic but generally a little
grungy - although I can be found occasionally being a little cleaner and
brighter!</div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Hi everyone, it is a pleasure to
be a guest here today and share a project for the current challenge: Industrial
/ Grungy.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
I decided to alter a coffee tin.
I began with a coat of matt medium and then added Deco Art Crackle paint and
Texture sand paste – quite randomly in varying thicknesses. Once dry I added
some stamping and a little stencilling with texture paste – selecting stencils
that were relatively forgiving as stencilling on a curved surface is
challenging! </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
I used Deco Art Media Fluid
Acrylics to build up my colours. (Blue Green Light, Transparent Yellow Iron
oxide, Quinacridone Gold and Paynes Grey). I stopped after some colour and dried
before lightly sanding the stencilled areas to reveal the white texture paste.
This allowed the additional colours to be bolder over these areas. Once it was
dry I added a little more stamping in archival black ink.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

I've been playing with my favourite recycled tomato paste tubes, to create some fun metal embellishments . If you can't get hold of one of these then don't worry, as small pieces of thin, pliable craft metal will also work. I have two different looks for you, one is smart and somewhat sophisticated using thin copper sheet........<br />

The other using a tomato paste tube is just pure crazy fun !<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
For both projects, I used Tim Holtz's Entomology set of stamps. This is how I got started.......</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Firstly, I gathered together my supplies....</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEja3q6BR8kueTfAxnF14uU4Zg5dKvLbPDytFjMvFv6BLVKMY7Lq0MifE3v_OIrrBe1cTU8DMvLMDwLnoJSiyLVCVz2dUImiUlSy5nXOI4axJbJCHObLV_yoSatpWsKDloYDKOyO6B0WlL3X/s1600/IMG_8294.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1097" data-original-width="1600" height="219" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEja3q6BR8kueTfAxnF14uU4Zg5dKvLbPDytFjMvFv6BLVKMY7Lq0MifE3v_OIrrBe1cTU8DMvLMDwLnoJSiyLVCVz2dUImiUlSy5nXOI4axJbJCHObLV_yoSatpWsKDloYDKOyO6B0WlL3X/s320/IMG_8294.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
I then cut some pieces from the tomato paste tube, as well as some small rectangles of thin copper sheet. As the tomato paste tubes are heavily printed on the outside, I lightly sanded some the paint away so that I would be able to see the stamped image more clearly.......</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
After placing the stamped metal onto a piece of grey board, I traced over the image using the small end of an embossing tool. This is how it looked on the reverse side.....</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhR5G-eHYnZX6Gf7F7Vgd8YqmlygG772SlfAALc_I2KdZrTIrnG1H2K4t-8MzncUPr5qa_-hDiTHi_twLaPCrNlbSGJUK8Lx8XQZnqflanJpr-5rR5YsVx9gMlINjsSF09-sMTZ-eiV368l/s1600/IMG_8316.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1404" data-original-width="1600" height="280" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhR5G-eHYnZX6Gf7F7Vgd8YqmlygG772SlfAALc_I2KdZrTIrnG1H2K4t-8MzncUPr5qa_-hDiTHi_twLaPCrNlbSGJUK8Lx8XQZnqflanJpr-5rR5YsVx9gMlINjsSF09-sMTZ-eiV368l/s320/IMG_8316.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
I didn't try to trace over all of the very small detail as it becomes quite difficult as the metal stretches. I continued to use the embossing tool refining the image until I was satisfied. I then used a small pair of scissors and cut around the shape. I then applied drops of alcohol inks to the surface, allowing the colours to mingle.....</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
I repeated this technique and made several other insect embellishments as well as a couple of leafy flourishes.....</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpeM024nk94JYb1pg0Dos3pKnKHDyhal-5styUJRFJ3fBf9xBo6pW-lPlrzsEEV4h2zsOj3VoNlJ3-S7EVnw5s7OmeZwR7zuM6FF_vDspek-pbl_JVQB4Eic4DN2EcAfG71gi3GNIbLlr-/s1600/IMG_8298.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1293" data-original-width="1600" height="258" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpeM024nk94JYb1pg0Dos3pKnKHDyhal-5styUJRFJ3fBf9xBo6pW-lPlrzsEEV4h2zsOj3VoNlJ3-S7EVnw5s7OmeZwR7zuM6FF_vDspek-pbl_JVQB4Eic4DN2EcAfG71gi3GNIbLlr-/s320/IMG_8298.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
I also embossed the copper sheet in the same way, but instead of adding alcohol ink, I heated it with a cook's blow torch and once it had cooled added some patinating fluid...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
In order to show how these embellishments could be used, I created the two different tags. The heart tag was simply constructed by covering an MDF heart with book paper. A touch of distress ink and a little stamping around the edges completed the base. I then added a circular MDF circle, which had been coloured with Inca Gold paste. I buffed the surface and then adhered the embossed moth, using Cosmic shimmer glue.....</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
The insect tag, was firstly stencilled with embossing paste, then coloured with Deco Art Media paints. I also used, Deco Art Antiquing fluid, and wiped it back, in order to create the cobble stone surface. The Insects were then adhered with Cosmic Shimmer glue.....</div>

I really enjoyed making these little metal insects and can see lots of possibilities for using the same technique with different stamps, I think flowers and leaves would work very well. If you give it a try I'm sure you'll have as much fun as I've had. Let me know as I'd love to see your results, better still, why not use it to rustle up a project for our current 'Industrial/Grungy' challenge. After all Cec did say she'd like to see some metal! x</div>

It is Cec here and I am the hostess for the new challenge starting today. I am calling this one <b>Industrial/Grungy</b> and here is what I have to say about it:<br />
<br />
<i>Create a mixed media project with some stamping and/or stenciling that puts off a very industrial and grungy vibe - be sure to include lots of metal and texture.</i><br />
<br />
Our designers have made some fabulous inspiration for you. To get the details on their creations, just click on their name and you will be taken directly to their blog.<br />

<br />
I also love working with shades of one colour so that's where the thought process started.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbSl0YexU940s0krPzHpY9B7xoyyDaxPOGvSkrhfGXSrnNvE8ZpMrwgvX0DhPdWOjL6TNEdWqCFg6dmiGI8cT1UNC2cYo3KD-t4L100M4O4zXwKrbMc9c-Eig_cUMiEZLZ8Xfpct7B_1M/s1600/White+board_1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1342" data-original-width="1600" height="335" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbSl0YexU940s0krPzHpY9B7xoyyDaxPOGvSkrhfGXSrnNvE8ZpMrwgvX0DhPdWOjL6TNEdWqCFg6dmiGI8cT1UNC2cYo3KD-t4L100M4O4zXwKrbMc9c-Eig_cUMiEZLZ8Xfpct7B_1M/s400/White+board_1.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
I've used Fresco Finish Acrylics, gathering a selection all of varying shades. I started with a piece of white grey board which I gave a coat of matt medium to so it was protected against the liquid I was about to use.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I started with Snowflake working on a diagonal and adding the next shade while the paint was still wet.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhg8Yr02rhaA2hMg1uhyphenhyphenZLVkor-LQsgg70w3C6E30rn6s3XYZFoKbNc9tDN8ZKNO6PXkiSvQgu_dcMn0WLqI3EMw_-qbADXshKVUxKp8fGVxsDBVrNr0Mk_Y3XGVrtUNXtSTeu_0LHgy9E/s1600/Canvas_3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1223" data-original-width="1600" height="305" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhg8Yr02rhaA2hMg1uhyphenhyphenZLVkor-LQsgg70w3C6E30rn6s3XYZFoKbNc9tDN8ZKNO6PXkiSvQgu_dcMn0WLqI3EMw_-qbADXshKVUxKp8fGVxsDBVrNr0Mk_Y3XGVrtUNXtSTeu_0LHgy9E/s400/Canvas_3.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
While the board was drying I used the same technique on 4 small canvases that I taped together while they were painted.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJYmkVG02wWSQumE6HvDkAP9Z9XEnG6k4WMIJ-CVjuy5-Xlxmrp_46qtsRvvba-tI169Dxk2gSqeWypklg89QNwnEe_tJ1OZt237qO0Y6TFXtF8HaDIv2xMN8llihWS-8cJu0kBjQd9B4/s1600/Stencilled+canvas_4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1015" data-original-width="1600" height="252" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJYmkVG02wWSQumE6HvDkAP9Z9XEnG6k4WMIJ-CVjuy5-Xlxmrp_46qtsRvvba-tI169Dxk2gSqeWypklg89QNwnEe_tJ1OZt237qO0Y6TFXtF8HaDIv2xMN8llihWS-8cJu0kBjQd9B4/s400/Stencilled+canvas_4.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
While the canvases were still taped together I stencilled over 2 of them, still keeping to the Ombre technique of starting with a light colour and working towards a darker colour.<br />

Once everything was dry the canvases were mounted onto the board.<br />

The text is another one from an Alison Bomber set, stamped in Watering Can Archival ink. I prefer the grey against more delicate colours.<br />

Using Snowflake as the base for the stencilling allowed the colours that followed to have a subtle shade difference.<br />
