here's a few photos of an art journal page i completed last week. i used PanPastels and oil pastels and more. it was so liberating to domething random in my journal and i hope i'll have more time to devote to it. it's such a free-form art and i love it.
i used rub-ons to create some of the elements and i love how the flowers i intended to do turned into what i call bubble trees. you can watch the video to see how i did them too.
so, i've been editing videos like crazy and i thought i'd share photos of some the projects i've recently made. most of these are objects of video tutorials on scrapbook centrale's channel and you can check them out here. and you can also watch the vlog related to that post below:
the image on this card is not stamped but embossed with the "beatnik bouquet" embossing folder from sizzix. the way i brought the image to life was by using the big brush pens by faber-castell over the raised areas. the background is just watercolored. love the look!
for project #2, i wanted to mix a lot of patterns. i took a pattern paper from the french country collection by graphic45 and kept the rest of my colour palette neutral. the background is accented with washi tapes. very simple, yet effective.
project #3 - not my favourite... but i like some of the elements. the object for this tutorial was to use the piccolo line of chipboard shapes and embossing enamels. the little boy is from one the pion papers; i changed the color of the shirt with tumbled glass distress ink by ranger.
i am neglecting you so much... i'm trying to catch up but if you miss me you can always find me on YouTube for the latest developments. i thought i'd start posting about projects that i've completed recently. feel free to ask me any questions about them.
angelle showed me how to properly put a 3D card together:
it's an Anton Piek painting that i've cut out by hand and put together with Scrap Dots, a silicone-based glue.
the little dog at the bottom of the card has 3 different layers to it... yup, lots of very small fussy cutting. but i loved every single minute of it.
i've been lagging in my vlogs but i've been busy making stuff :-) i made this card for my friend Kathy's birthday using a whole bunch of inks and stamps.
i really like how it turned out. the background is made with different colors of Distress Inks. some of the flowers were clear embossed and some others were layered using different colors of Archival Inks. i love making this type of cards and playing with shadows and movement.
i also made this card for a tutorial tuesday video for scrapbook centrale:
this card is very clean and simple and i need to make these once in a while. i almost rejuvenates me.
i also made a couple of pages in my art journal but you'll have to watch this video below because i didn't take pictures.
i hope everyone has a happy and creative week.
CeeCee ya later!
last weekend, i had the immense joy of attending a 2 workshops with THE dina wakley. what an opportunity. my head is still filled with images and that i need to put down on paper. here's what i made and what i have to say about it ;-) (hi-res photos at the end).
well i've finally completed a project started last july :-) here are the photos of my Graphic45 Song Bird easel calendar. i love it so much! this line of paper is just absolutely stunning so you can't go wrong with any project you make with it. i'm planning on making a coordinating perpetual calendar book to store cards i want to send to my friends throughout the year. but for now, here's a video of a flip through and some photos at the end (you can view the video for complete set of photos or my Facebook page).
