Sketchabilities #133 has an awesome mixed media sketch!

When inspiration comes a knocking,

you have to answer!

 

Sketchabilities #133

has inspired

me to answer her

knock

with this

monochromatic

layout.

 

I applied my recent small card technique on a much larger scale which rendered these results. I adore the yummy alchemy of watercolors, micro beads, dry wall tape, tissue paper and glitter. 

 

 

Some more close ups to share with you:

 

 

Now, it's your turn to answer inspiration's call and you have a few more days to do so at Sketchabilites here.

 

 

How could one not be inspired to work with this sketch #133?

 





Sunny in California...another small card

 

Struggling

finding

the

time

to commit

to a large

project,

however,

I'm enjoying

the

creative process

in

crafting small

cards.

 

 

Some close-up of the details. 

 

 

 

 

I'm becoming an alchemist by mixing micro beads, glass glitter, and fine glitters in various color combination with this series of cards where I use the same technique but using different colors and embellies.

 

 

Hmmm...which color should I create with next?

 

Thank you for dropping by.  Once I hone down on the technique, I'll be happy to share it with you.





Hello There....another small card

In the mood

to use my

supplies and

create.

 

 



Feels good to bet my hands inky and use my supplies

after a long absence.

 

 

 

Thanks for dropping by. 

Winter's Muse

 

I found

a lovely

challenge site

that has

inspired me

to create

a

Winter's

Muse .

 

The challenge was to create something with a winter theme, predominately blue, some ribbon

and some medium.  You can find the challenge here at Scrap and Skill. Share some love with the ladies there when you visit. :)

 

I moistened the front of the cardstock with water and scrunched it up in my hands to get a worn tattered look, then when it was dry, it was laid on some puddles of water mist and blue mists and dried with a heat gun. Some stamping, more mist, and then a stencil and molding paste finished off the background work.  Thank you for visiting.

 

Here are some close ups:

 

 



  

 

 

 

 

This card won the Winter Challenge at Scrap'N Skill's Challenge site. 

 

 

Follow Your Art

 

A

happy accident

rendered

this

little

card.

 

 

 

 

The accident was a watercolor mistake. However I liked the colors and salvaged the little creation with some stamping, tissue tape, and micro beads.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The little scroll work featuring the title, "Follow your Art" was wrapped onto a feminine little hanger charm I purchased from the Flying Unicorn Store.  Here's a picture of the hanger, some of the other charms that come in the set are featured on the first picture of this blog.  They're so adorable.

 

 

Thanks for stopping by, and I'm wishing happy little accidents happened to you too.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 



"Just for You" a little card

 

Cardabilities

released a new sketch,

and it caught my eye,

 stirred my mojo,

and

I came up

with this.

 

 

This is what

I needed to

get creative again

after a long

absence.

The petite chipboard

pieces are elements

Circle Flourish - Small

 

Let's see what stirs you when you see Sketch #115. Better hurry, it's due by January 28, 2015.

 

"Frozen" featuring Anna aka Aubree

 

 I was inspired to create this Frozen inspired

layout featuring the adventurous and charming

Anna, aka

Aubree.

 

Here she is decorating her tree in her Anna dress.

 

I realized how long it was

since I last posted anything when

I opened my

light molding paste

and found it partially dry.

 

Some close ups:

 



 

Some yummy texture using a Stencil Girl Stencil

I've got another color palette in mind for my next Woman of Substance journal page and will be
starting it soon.  Hope to see you again when I finish that entry too.
