Texture Challenge for Art and Soul Studio

Hey Everyone

This week is my turn to share my interpretation of the challenge over at Soul Sisters Facebook Page where each month we give away 3 vouchers of $50 - one for each category - layout, card or mixed media project so make sure you enter

Also don't for get to check out the rest of the blog for some great inspiration from the rest of the Design Team

I used the Art-C Clipboard I seem to have a thing for clipboards at the moment I used the Heavy Body Gel through the Couture Creations Rosy Stencil

Once that dried I then painted the clipboard with the Art Alchemy Sparks - Unicorn Hair and Dragon's Eye

Then when they were dry I tried to use the Heavy Body Gel to even out the board so if you are to put paper on there it won't be lumpy to write on - it's still a little bumpy but I'm sure I can add a piece of cardboard on top if I use it

Ephemera Cardstock Dies has so many different pieces in them so I used a few here and there - a few feathers, a flower and a couple of tickets

I used one of the Journalling Notecards which I ended up cutting down a bit in the left corner and another for the feathers which is the little square

The Chipboard Stickers gives it a little dimension and I just love this little gold bee

I used some Art Ingredients Glass Beads in different parts on the Clipboard for some more texture

Products I used from the Art and Soul Store

Bloom for Art and Soul Studio

Hey Everyone

It's my turn on the Art and Soul Studio Blog today and I created this canvas around this quote

I like to collect quotes I see on the internet or Facebook and use them for inspiration and motivation

We also have a Facebook Group - Soul Sisters so make sure you check that out for loads of inspiration

I started off with using some modelling paste through a Couture

Creations stencil - Rosy for some texture

Then painted the canvas with black gesso so it added atmosphere of the quote

Then I cut up a piece of 7 Dots Studio Paint Chips Nightshades cardstock into random sizes including one to mount the photo on

Awhile ago mum gave me some pinking shears and I thought these would be perfect with the zig zag in the paper

So I randomly cut one edge of each piece with the scissors

And this is a paper clay piece from mum that she made for me from a Prima Mould (she has the moulds and every now and then if I can afford it I will buy her one to add to her collection not that she needs me too she has LOTS - which in the long run helps me cause I get more patterns to use lol)
