Twinkle Twinkle for Embellish with Flair

Hey Everyone

This project for Embellish With Flair was a fun little project 

Using one of the flairs from the Galaxy, Moon & Stars set 

I used Little Birdie Embossing Texture Paste Aquatini through the stencil then once I heated it so puffed I went over the whole thing with black gesso

After that I used Finnabair's Art Alchemy Sparks Raven Black paint over the background

 Then brushed some Finnabair's Art Alchemy Sparks Unicorns Hair paint over the embossed area and painted the stars with it as well

 I used Finnabair's Art Alchemy Dragons Eye paint over the metal moon 

I used a Tim Holtz sticker onto to add an extra touch

 Inside you can see the clear plastic stars which are from Memory Maze 

I added some clear gems I had in my stash and to pick up on the blue in the flair I added some Art Ingredients Glass Glitter in Platinum

Here you can see all the bits that make it like a shaker box but it's going to get hung up so it all sparkles

Wander for Memory Maze

Hey Everyone

This time on the Memory Maze blog I created a layout with a photo my son in law took of my daughter at the beach

I love the way he captured her just wandering along 

Make sure to check out the Memory Maze Store because we do custom orders as well

I didn't do a lot to this page as I wanted the photo to stand out

I used the River Pebbles Stencil with sand mixed with 3D Matte Gel

It has great texture and dimension

The Circle Mandala Chipboard I painted with Finnabair Art Alchemy Paint Sparks Unicorn Hair and I brushed a little bit of the paint over the sand for a little shimmer

I used a mould from Prima for the scrolls then used two of the Art Alchemy waxes in the new colours - Old Denim and Blue Lagoon 

I feel like they look a bit like waves and the blue adds some extra colour to the neutral colours of the layout

The quote seemed appropriate for the photo and is from one of Tim Holtz's sticker books 

I used Platinum glass glitter for a bit of extra bling

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
