Vera Lane Studio - Specs Appeal

 

Happy Saturday!

Today I'm sharing my Vera Lane Studio DT project featuring Specs Appeal which is available from the Etsy shop.

I decided I wanted a funny theme so  typed up the eye chart and inserted it into Word. I added two rows of the different specs you get in the digi set and printed it out.

I coloured in the glasses and added glossy accents. I added one of the sets of glasses to the girl and printed her out. I then coloured her with my copic markers. I stamped the circles stamp from Janet's #338 Background Noise in Versamark on her dress and embossed it with WOW white embossing powder. I also added glossy accents to her glasses. I doodled around the edge with my black fineliner and added some of Janet's new Washi tape for AALL & Create. 

Next I added some black and wine paint splatters. I used another small piece of washi tape and adhered the girl on it at the left side. I finally added the sentiment using the SPECS to cover up the "other" word in the eye chart....lol.

It's quite a CAS project but wanted to focus on the girl and the eye chart.

Vera Lane Studio - Aviary

Happy Saturday!

Today I'm sharing my Vera Lane Studio DT project which is an A5 journal page featuring Aviary which is available from the Etsy shop.

 I started by adhering a piece of the Stamperia Blue Lands paper to fit my page. I then used the AALL & Create #37 Cracked Walls 1 stencil and stencilled using Liquitex light modelling paste in the top and bottom left corners.

Once it was dry I went over with a watered down white gesso. Just to tone down the papers and give an even texture. 

Next I used some watered down Paperartsy Fresco paints in Ice Blue, Sky and Double Denim. Starting with the lightest just washing over the  texture paste and working towards the darkest shade. Also all around the outside so the darkest shade was at the edges. Once that was dry I used the Music part from the #75 Vocalist stamp set and stamped some randomly using Versafine Clair Nocturne. Then I stamped the grid stamp from #404 Visual Ingredients around the edges. I finished off the stamping with #304 heartfelt using Salty Ocean DO and added some white splatters with my white paint pen.

 I then coloured in my image and 4 of the birds using my copic markers, added some highlights with a white gel pen and cut them out. 

I added a piece of  #8 Fledgling washi tape and adhered my girl to it. I then adhered the birds. To finish off I added the sentiment and outlined with black fineliner.

Vera Lane Studio - Bunny Kisses

Happy Saturday!

Today I'm sharing my Vera Lane Studio DT project which is an A5 journal page featuring Bunny Kisses which is available from the Etsy shop.

 I brayered my card using Paperartsy Fresco paints in Frosty and Peppermint greens and also Sherbet pink. I then brayered some Snowflake white onto the AALL & Create #116 Tre Fiore stencil by Janet. Next I spritzed it with some water and placed it on the background. I smoothed it down and held it in place for a minute then removed the stencil.

After that I used the circles from the #22 Human stencil and applied some Liquitex light modelling paste which I added some of the green and pink paint to, so it would coordinate. After it dried I used the stencil again and dabbed some Snowflake white paint through it with a sponge.


 When it had all dried I stamped using #304 Heartfelt, #352 Circled numbers and the script from #338 Backround Noise randomly over the page using Versafine Clair Morning Mist. Some white splatters using my paint pen to finish it off.
I added two pieces of washi tape and adhered the girls on them. Finally I added the sentiment and ran my black fineliner around it.
Aren't they just the sweetest little bunnies?

Sweet Stampin' Challenge

 Saturday and time for another 

Sweet Stampin' Challenge

 
The theme from Team Wendy is
Spring Mood Board
 

 I've made a 6x6 journal page using this fab Bee Gnome digi stamp from KLM Digital Designs. I coloured him with my copic markers and cut him out. I added some highlights with my white gel pen.
For the background I added some Squeezed Lemonade and Spiced Marmalade distress oxides to my glass mat and spritzed with water. I then smooshed the card in it until I was happy with it.
I then brayed my hexagonal stencil with Paperartsy Snowflake white paint and spritzed with water lightly. I placed it on the background and pressed down for a few minutes.

I then used the AALL & Create #383 Scripted Haxagons stamp and stamped randomly around the edge using Versafine Clair Nocturne ink. Next up I used my black Posca pen to add some black ink splatters. To finish off I added the sentiment and used my black fineliner pen around it to make it stand out.

Vera Lane Studio - Coffee, Tea And Books

 Happy Saturday!

Today I'm sharing my Vera Lane Studio DT project which is a 6x6 journal page featuring Coffee, Tea And Books which is available in the Etsy shop.

 I coloured Amelia and her pile of books in with my copic markers and fussy cut her out. I also coloured in one of the plants from the Succulents set and cut it out.

I used some patterned paper that looked like wallpaper and cut off a 1 3/4 inch strip. I used the cut off piece to paper piece the cushions from Janet's AALL & Create #461 Have A Seat set. I added a piece of wood effect paper to look like the floor and added a darker strip as skirting. I used one of the script stamps from AALL & Create #338 to add some script to the wallpaper.  I then stamped the sofa from the Have A Seat set and paper pieced it with some hessian look paper. I then used to copics to add some shading. I glued a set of cushions on the sofa and added Amelia. I then used some 3D foam pads to add some dimension.



I added the pile of books with some 3D foam pads too. I added the succulent plant and another set of cushions on the floor. I printed off the sentiment and doodled a frame around it. I then doodled the hanger so it looked like a picture on the wall. To finish off I doodled around the edge with my black fineliner pen.

Crafts Galore Encore March Challenge

As it's the first of the month, today I'm sharing my DT card for Crafts Galore Encore

For March it's another anything goes challenge.

The sponsor this month is Polkadoodles and the prize is a store voucher for £6.75 ( equivalent to 3 digi stamps.)

I coloured up this gorgeous image called Sky's The Limit from our sponsor Polkadoodles, with my copic markers. I used peach and warm grey tones to match the papers I was going to use. I added some dots and highlights with my white gel pen. 

I wanted to use these pretty papers from Poppy Moon Designs as they were perfect. I cut the air balloon paper with a Tattered Lace die and matted it onto the cloud paper. I then cut the image out using the Wrapped Stitched Rectangles from Memory Box.I then adhered it to the card, Next I cut some clouds from more of the patterned paper and doodled around them with my white gel pen. I attached them to the card.

To finish off I added the Tim Holtz adage ticket saying SOAR. It was a perfect sentiment!
