Bling Challenge for Art and Soul Studio

Hey Everyone

This months challenge for Art and Soul Studio is all about Bling and who doesn't like bling 

I love the whole mood board this month it's so feminine, soft and pretty

If you enter the challenge on our Facebook page Soul Sisters you have the chance to win one of three $50 vouchers to spend at the store

The photo is of my chandelier in my bedroom I told hubby when we finally did our room no matter what we are having a chandelier in our room 

It's not a huge grand one it's perfect for the size of our bedroom

I played underneath to take it as it's over our bed

I started off with a timber frame and gessoed it so when I painted it the paint would go on smooth

This is the back of the frame which I painted with gesso as well so I could use the mix of Heavy Body Gel and a fine glitter

I used the mix through the Bohemian Bouquet Stencil

I then used Colour Blast Snow White Embossing Powder randomly on the frame for a bit more bling and sparkle

I had some tulle that has bling in it so of course I had to use that 

I added the stem of flowers and then added some of the other flowers in amongst it all

Then added some plastic bling randomly through out the mix

I had the large blog flower which I love - it fit perfect on this project

As you can see I used a lot of the Rose Gold painting all the metal and paper clay

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
