Creations Scrapbook Centrale Creative Team project 2024-Nov-02

 Hi,

It's time for me to share my Creations Scrapbook Centrale fb group page project.  Like most months of this year, I share my planner page as the first project of each month for this group.  Our challenge theme for November is: Hobbies, option of color: Ping/Grey.


This page came together easily, the beautiful Graphic 45 pattern paper Let's Get Artsy did it all!
I hand cut three brushes from a sheet of Alexandra Renke design paper, colored the brush tips with alcohol markers, and add them next to the calendar elements. The butterflies and sentiment are all hand cut from the Let's Get Artsy paper pack.


I also stamped the large butterfly in grey to distress the calendar element.

Thanks for coming over to my blog.  Have a sweet day!

Creations Scrapbook Centrale Creative Team Project 2024-Oct-13

 Hello,

I am sharing a mixed media art journal cover on Creations Scrapbook Centrale fb group page today.


I started by glueing patterned rice paper on the cover.  Then I applied some Primer with a brayer, stenciled with crackle pasted, colored with ink and distress crayon, stenciled with volume paste, and stamped text to build up all the layers.  

My focal point is the die cut paint brush.  I adhered both hand cut and die cut butterflies and positioned them to make it look like they are flying out from the brush's bristles.  



Products used for my project are shown in photos below.



Thanks for coming over to my blog.  I wish you a sweet day!
