#Anything goes challenge, a key ring, for lost Coast Designs

Hello everyone, today a key ring.

Years ago I wrote an article for the Art Specially nr 13 page 60. A dutch stamp magazine that unfortunaly no longer exits.

The article was about stamping plastic key rings.

You know, those plastiscs where you can put a picture in.

So, I thought It would be nice to repeat that with the lovely stamp from LCD “Prom night”.

To start, remove the lid from the key ring and paint the key ring with black acrylic paint.

Of course we leave the window free of paint.

While the paint is drying, stamp the Prom night stamp twice with black stazon ink. Color them in, and add some accents with a white gel pen.

With the separate window you can draw around the faces of the girls.

Cut out and color them.

Now you apply the gold flaces to the black paint, leaving some black open so that you get a smudged effect.

Place both girls in the hanger and close the window.

Now you have a personal key ring, which is a very nice gift to give to someone.

Have fun creating and giving away or keeping yourself.

Don't forget to participate in our challenge and have a chance to win beautiful rubber stamps.

SanDee & Amelie's Steampunk challenge

This is one of my favorite blogs.
There is so much inspiration on the steampunk theme to find there.
So I joind the challenge for this month.
This peace of paper was left over from a die cut, Tim Holtz gearhead corner.
But I loved the colors so much, so I made this card with it.

LCD's #105 Anything goes challenge

Hello everyone, Riet here. 

Today a tag with the lovely steampunk pig from LostCoast Designs.

First I colored the background with the 3 oxide and a little water. 

I did this with an A4 so that I can make some die cuts later. 

I let it dry well. 

When the paper dries well I print the text "when pig's fly" in a corner. 

Then I cut out a tag and the text. 

Then I ran the tag through the embossing folder.

With an inkblending tool I just touched the nails and metal edges and the edges of the tag and text with Oxid Aged mahogany.

Die cut the angle with the gears and the loose gears.

Color and cut the pig.

Now you can stick it the way you like it.

Well this is my contribution to the anything goes challenge. 

I am curious what you are going to make, let your imagination work. 

And you know that the more people participate, the bigger the prize gets. 

But most importantly HAVE FUN !!!!

Lost Coast Designs challenge #104, Lets go vegetarian.

 Sleeping Lucy.

Stamps used: LCD Sleeping Lucy, LCD Shrubbery, LCD Florish, CV I am a child of the moon.

Hello everyone,

Today a big card, with the lovely pixie "sleeping Lucy".

I started cutting out a circle, 6Inch / 15cm.

I sprayed the circle with glimmer mist, Carribian blue, Cosmos (pink) and Moonlight.

With distress ink, I sponged some faint mountains and a moon.

And with stazon black I stamped the shrubbery and added some accents with the white gel pen.

The pixie is stamped with stazon black and colored in with pencils.

Stamp the beautiful Carmens Veranda sentiment.

Love this one, it's such a magical saying.

With seedles preserves, I sponge the edge of the top half of the card.

And with black the bottom half. Now for the mat.

I stamped the mat with seedless preserves distress ink and the LCD florish stamp.

The edge is also sponged.

Now another blue mat and you are done.

Hope you enjoyd this little tutorial.

And dont forget to join our challenge, you can win some lovely rubberstamps.

Lost Coast Designs CHALLENGE #104 LET'S GO VEGETARIAN

The stamps I used, Sweater gnome and flower gnome with Florish.

Hi there, here a card from me, Riet.
This challenge is all about flowers, tree's, vegetables and fruits.

Today a card for the gnome love birds. 

I started with an actated sheet. I cut out a heart. 

Then I stained it with distress ink, seedless preserves, spiced marmalade and musterd seed. 

It is lightly sprayed with some water. 

I made a print on the paper with that. 

You can also use a gellyplate. Let it dry well. 

Masked the heart.

With distress micro glaze I made a stamp print around the heart with the florish. 

Then I sponged it with distress seedless preserves. 

I drew a line around the heart with a purple pencil. 

The gnomes stamped on thin paper and colored in pencil.

Cut them out and glue them on.

If you use a mat take white or very light gray. 

I made some stains on the edges with distress spiced marmalade. 

And on the corners I put that extra on. 

I loved making this card. 

I find the gnome stamps so versatile, you can use them for so many things.

For example, Valentine, a wedding, Christmas and just for fun.

You can probably think of a few yourself.

I hope I was able to inspire you.

Enjoy and come on over for the challenge.
