Choose Happy

Today I created this simple tag for the bloom girl September challenge. I love Jamie's stamps but I only have one of them so far.

 
 
  I used Jamie's awsome Free Spirit stamp to create this tag.

Dreams come true canvas

Thursday 25 September 2014

I have recently been able to get hold of some of the Lindy Stamp gang sprays. I love these. They are my new favourite. The starburst sprays have so much shimmer in them. It is amazing. They are also permanent once dry so you can layer on top of them.

I was looking at the Lindy stamp gang blog and decided to try entering the September colour challenge. Aren't these colours gorgeous?

For this challenge I have created a canvas piece called Dreams Come True. I am not particularly good at this layering technique yet so I keep practicing.



 
I have started by using a Tim Holtz scrapbook paper for the background. I applied texture paste through a circle stencil and then used the Lindy Stamp Gang sprays to build up the background. The photo doesn't show the shimmer this has.
 
 I used the new prima glass glitter in copper and mica flakes in mulberry to add texture. I then added layers using Dusty Attic chipboard elements, Bo Bunny and Prima ephemera and flowers and more sprays to build up the layers. I like how it turned out.

The sprays that I used from Lindy Stamp Gang are:
 
 
I hope you join me in the challenge.

Welcome to my blog. This blog will be following my crafty progress as I learn mixed media, art journaling and card making. I hope to be able to help others to learn these crafts, as I discover new techniques and experiment with new products.
