Lost coast designs challenge "spring has sprung"

 Hello everyone.

Today I want to tell you how I made this art journal card.  First I took a piece of sturdy cardboard and pasted on a page from an old music book.  I kept the music paper a bit smaller than the cardboard so that you can see the edges.After I smeared the paper with Gesso I colored it with Gelato's.

Then I added the diamond's with a stencil and Gelato stick. I drew edges around it with a pencil and scratched it with a knife. I stamped the top edge with Versa magic and the Hearts and Curls Border.  With a brush with water I went over the hearts so that they are a bit lighter in color.

I wrote the text and added the dashes with a Posca marker.

Well that was the background, and then for the beautiful dragonfly stamp from the More Bugz sheet. Take a piece of watercolor paper. Stamp with a waterproof ink.

I colored the dragonfly with Tombo markers, but you can color it with whatever you want. Then here and there some white paint splatters and you're done.

I hope you enjoy this little tutorial.
And join our Spring Has Sprung challenge, its fun.

This is my contribution. A spring landscape made with the beautiful shrubbery stamp. The card is made with pan pastel and stamped with stazon. I stamped it twice to give the impression that the culms move in a gentle breeze. I dabbled with acrylic paint markers. it all looks like small flowers.
Dit is mijn bijdrage. Een lente landschapje gemaakt met de prachtige shrubbery stempel. De kaart is gemaakt met panpastel en gestempeld met stazon. ik heb hem 2 keer gestempeld om de indruk te wekken dat de halmen bewegen in een zacht briesje. Met acryl paint markers heb ik getippeld. zo lijken het allemaal klein bloemetjes.

Promt swap butterfly

Made for a prompt swap. The assignment was, butterfly, black and white, a foam stamp, modeling paste and stamp on fabric.

Gemaakt voor een prompt swap. De opdracht was, vlinder, zwart/wit, een foam stamp, modeling paste en stempel op stof.

Big tag.

There is a lot off shine and shimmer on it and I like that. I have tried to use a real vintage color, and I am satisfied with the end result.

My first post as designer for Lost Coast Designs.

I made a small gift box on a Score-pal. The box is 8x8cm en 2cm high.The name of the stamp is Praying angel. I just love this stamp, look at the expression on her face.

I first put a sheet of paper through some puddles of distress ink, Shabby shutters, Scattered straw and Pine needless. Once the sheet is dry,you can cut and creased the paper. Then you lay it flat and stamp the angel with Jet black stazon.

Then I colored in some accents with pencils with de same colors, no matter which brand.

And than the last thing is some accents with a white gell pen. I really love my white gell pen.

Tip: when you glue the box, start with the bottem. Then you can be sure that the lid closes properly.

Come on over and join the challenge, its fun and you can win some lovely stamps.

(Dont forget to check the rules)
