Ula Create Journal Tag

For this Polkadoodles DT project for the 'We Love to Create' blog challenge, I was inspired to use the ‘Ula Create – Life Journal’ digi stamp, which I coloured with Promarkers. Ula is very keen on journaling so she needed to be sat on top of a pile of wonderful, inky and creative art journals. I used the books from the ‘Cupcake on pile of books’ digi stamp to create this effect, which I coloured, fussy cut and decoupaged to create depth and dimension. 

 I cut a large tag shape from 300gsm plain card stock and covered it using a background paper from the ‘Winnie Wonderland Paper Heaven 8’ bundle which has a subtle text pattern. I edged the tag with Craftynotions ‘Pink Sapphire’ jewel enamels embossing powder and stamped one edge with the ‘Queen of Hearts Collage’ stamp. I love this stamp as it has so many elements to it. I embossed it using WOW! ‘Gold Rich Super Fine’ powder. I then roughly tore purple flowers from the ‘Winnie Wednesday Halloween Bundle’ paper pack, edging them with ‘Dusty Concord’ Distress Ink. I applied the same ink to the sentiment from the ‘Ula Create – Life Journal’ digi stamp set. 

 I selected a purple ribbon from my stash which I also stamped and embossed in gold, using the ‘Queen of Hearts Collage stamp’. 

I hope you enjoyed this project and I look forward to seeing your makes this month. 

Happy Crafting!

Winnie in Wonderland – Time is Running Out

 

Hello there, crafters!  Here is my latest make for the Polkadoodles We love to create blog challenge using the delightful ‘Winnie in Wonderland’ collection.   For this mixed media art board I used the ‘Time is Running Out’ digi stamp and the white rabbit from the ‘Let’s Hurry’ digi stamp, colouring with my Copics and Promarkers. 

I created the background by painting the art board with black gesso and edging it with embossing enamel.  I used one of the background papers from the ‘Winnie Wonderland Paper Heaven 8’ collection which I tore to create a textured edge and coloured using distress ink. 

I really enjoyed playing with the ‘Winnie Wonderland Embellies 1&2’ to create the scene and I particularly liked having the white rabbit pop out of a tea cup!  I used Crackle Accents on the large clock face to add shine and texture and included some embellishments from my stash to tie it all together and add extra interest and dimension, including sprocket dies which I covered with embossing enamel for a colourful, rusty look.

Happy Crafting!
