Hex Tex Tuesday- Abstract Wall Art- Fiona Randall

 

Welcome back for another Hex Tex Tuesday.

I love abstract art so decided to create a simple wall panel using the hexagons in a Monochromatic style.

I cut a Panel measuring 8x8ins from a Tando Grey Board Sheet and gave it a coat of DecoArt Chalky Finish in Carbon to both sides of the panel. Once dry I gave both sides of the panel a coat of DecoArt Ultra Matte varnish to seal and protect the chalky finish.

For this project I used 7 of the  hexagons . 

I gave all the hexagons a coat of DecoArt Media Tinting  base and dried with a heat tool.

Once dry I stamped all the hexagons with textures from Chocolate Baroque's Harlequin Fragments Rubber Stamp Set with Black Archival Ink.

I cut one of the hexagons as shown in the diagram below.

I drew a line from corner to corner left to right and then right to left.

As you will see you end up with a cross and have two diamond and two triangle shapes.

Cut along the cross lines with a ruler and a craft knife.

Next up arrange your hexagons onto the panel as shown.

To finish add a sentiment strip if desired.

I chose to go with a Monochromatic theme but this would look just as good using a riot of colour. The possibilities are endless.

A quick and easy project that would look great on any wall in your home or studio.

Spread Your Wings. Butterfly Tag Plaque- Fiona Randall

 

Morning all Fiona Here with another Butterfly Tag Plaque.

I used one of the Tando Long Tags which come in a pack of 5 and are great value for money. I traced around the tag onto a piece of white card stock and cut with a craft knife.

Next up I sprinkled some Lindy's Magical powders ( you can use Brushos too) onto a tim holtz acrylic stamping block. Now this was a happy accident as the block has a grid system etched into it so you can line up your stamps and I sprinkled the powders onto this side by mistake as opposed to the smooth side.. I gave the block a spritz of water and then used the block as a stamp to transfer the now dissolved powders onto the tag. This is where the happy accident occurred as you can see it picked up the grid lines of the block too. What a cool effect. This was then attached to the long tag with DecoArt Decoupage Matte Glue.

Next I applied a coat of white DecoArt Media Gesso to two of the Tando Square frames and dried with a heat tool. I then gave them a spritz of water and applied the Lindy's magicals as a watercolur and dried. I then splattered with a brush another colour from the set of Lindy's magicals to both frames and then inked the edges with black archival ink when dry.

I then gave a coat of DecoArt Chalky Finish in Carbon to one of the Tando Mini Keys and added a chinese coin to the top of it as shown.

I then stamped two butterflys from Chocolate Baroqus Butterfly mind stamp set with versafine ink onto a piece of vellum. Then heat embossed with white embossing powder. The butterflies were then fussy cut out. I added a wash of colour to the smaller of the butterflies with Lindy's magicals.

I then glued the frames to to the tag and then glued the key on top of the frames. The butterflies were then glued and layered together and some black gems added to form the body. This was then attached to the key as shown.

I then stamped the sentiment from the Butterfly Mind Stamp set with black Archival Ink and cut out. I then layered onto black card stock and trimmed before applying to the tag base.

I then cut a piece of Tando Grey Board to size and attached a piece of the same white card stock to create a totally white base. I could have painted this but I wanted the same colour base  as the tag.

I am quite pleased how this happy accident turned out.

Morning all Fiona Here with my first post of the New Year.

I am in my comfort zone for this project with a rusty grungy Tag topped with a metallic effect embossed Butterfly and a cog thrown in for good measure

Layers of DecoArt Media Fluid Acrylic paint were dripped and drabbed onto a Tando size 7 Tag and heat dried between layers until I got the look I was after.I then added some stamping using an Andy Skinner Vintage Background stamp for some extra interest using black Archival Ink. The Tag edges were then inked using black Archival Ink to draw everything into the background.

Texture sand paste was then applied to a cog from The Industrial Elements set. Once dry this was given a coat of DecoArt Media Fluid Acrylic in paynes Grey then swiped with Burnished Brass metallic Lustre once dry. A small washer from the industrial elements kit was given a rusty treatment along with some resist stamping. The same rusty treatment was applied to the bookplate and screw heads and black stamping added. I then embossed and die cut the butterfly using a Tim Holtz 3d Impresslit embossing folder from black 300gsm cardstock. This was then swiped with the Burnished Brass Metallic Lustre to highlight the raised areas. All elements were then layered up onto the tag using offcuts of grey board to give depth and dimension. The tag was then layered onto a piece of Tando Grey Board cut to size to which was painted using DecoArt Chalky Finish in Carbon and two coats of DecoArt Ultra Matte Varnish to seal. Thedges were then swiped with the same Metallic Lustre. A small piece of cardstock was cut to size to fit the bookplate and stamped before attaching and gluing to the base of the tag as shown. Two mini screw heads were then applied to finish.

Kit of the Month, Large Whimsical Birds 2 - Zoë Sanderson

 Well Hello again!  I enjoyed this kit so much that I've made a second set and here they are

As always with me it was all about messing about and trying different things out.  Not a step by step this time but I'll try to talk you through each one.  you know if when you read our posts you have any questions you can always leave them in a comment and we will get back to you.

Cracked up.  After preparing with Gesso the body and wings were sprayed with Media Mister Shimmer Yellow.  Hand painted a flower on the body and painted the head and legs using DecoArt Media Fluid Acrylics .  The eyes were painted white and given flat back gems.  Body, Head and Eyes covered with Media Clear Crackle Glaze.  When that was dry DecoArt Metallic Lustre worked all over to really bring out the cracks, on the body and head, while pink pastel chalk was rubbed into the eyes.  The back board which is also part of the kit had Stamperia Glass Paste smeared over it and before it dried DecoArt Media Fluid Acrylic in Metallic Gold squirted on top and then spread with the same spreading knife.   The result is so textured and really shines, it might be my favourite part of this bird.

Next up Jail Bird.  All the Tando elements here were painted using a traditional brush and paint method.  when the body and wings were dry they were given contrasting blue strips in acrylic paint.  The arrows were drawn on with felt tip pen.  Once again the eyes are flat back gems.   The red painted Tag is also a Tando piece attached with a scrap of red eyelash ribbon.

This time the background is an acrylic pour.  I'm still just getting the hang of this technique.  Did not use enough paint this time so around the edges there were some bare areas there were covered with more of the Metallic Lustre.  It was a very pleasant surprise to see how well the two mediums worked together and when I discovered that the luster rubbed over the acrylic paint could be rubbed away revealing the paint below I was delighted.  Another avenue to be explored in the future.

Finally What the Cluck!   Body and Wings were sprayed again this time with Media Mister in Orange.  Probably because I was quite vigorous in my spraying the finish was not even but happily there were some yellow looking patches.  These inspired me to dot with Cosmic Shimmer Lava paste. This was then blasted with the heat gun to make it expand and puff up, before it was sprayed with the yellow mister.  This time for the eyes I've used a couple of spiral die cuts, the sort you use to make flowers, pulled them out a little to make the eyes pop.  The egg is a left over from an Easter project cut in half and attached with Silicon glue.

The background board has simply just given a covering of Metallic Lustre - Cosmic Blue.  To apply these pastes, waxes, call them what you will I use a cotton make up remover pad.  Pick up a good amount of the medium and with circular movements work it into the board, repeat until the the desired coverage and depth of colour is achieved. 

Have you taken a look around the blog and seen all the different but equally brilliant ways the team has presented these Large Whimsical Birds?  Have we inspired you to create something yourself.  If we have then our job is done and we would love you to show us what you have done over on our Face Book page.

Mixed Media Boards - by Zoë Sanderson

Hi, You will have heard this before and doubtless will again.  Tando Grey Board will take just about anything you throw at it.  Which is what happened this time.

I really enjoy experimenting with different mediums finding new ways to use them.  Tando mixed media boards are a great surface to work on.  Playing with Mixed Media offers so many ideas and opportunities it can be a battle sometimes to edit them down into a cohesive piece.  Another reason to use this little Tando Mixed Media boards big enough to work on but small enough to restrict the number techniques used.

Here are three boards that I've recently thrown all sorts of paints, pastes, glue and things at.  First they were all given a base coat of white gesso.

First the Blue Birds.   This board had a range of Distress Inks blended over with the lightest colours in the middle working out to darker shades around the edge.  Then water hand splattered over it.  My favourite world is Laugh and it is on an old stencil, tried to use it here with DecoArt Crackle Paste, but this did not work out so well, tried it again with Cosmic Shimmer Lava Paste.  This paste sucks up the colour but only with the parts not expanded by heating.  A while ago the waste from a die was saved and then used on another project as masks.  Those pieces we then added to this project using mat gel medium as the adhesive.  

As birds were to be the common theme with these boards Whimsical Birds provided the pair for this board.   These birds are great fun as you get various bodies different sets of eyes as well as wings and legs.  You get to decide how your birds will look.  Kept things fairly simple this time just painting bases Blue and Yellow then colouring the eyes white and gluing them on.

The next board was an experiment with Brusho's Aquawax.  This interesting fluid will take colour with Brusho pigment allowing you to extend these, it will also act as a resist.  Having given the base a colour wash various marks were made with a brush and the Aquawax.  More paint added then baby wiped over, makes for an interesting mottled background.  When dry a Tando Stencil Mish Mash laid over the board and an embossing fixative pushed through, the EP is an old stone effect one from my stash.  More of the die waste dropped on randomly.

The birds this time are from the Tando Mini's Owls 2.  The owls come in parts that you colour and build up.  Once again my Acrylic paints were put to work topped off with gilding wax.

For the third, and final for now, board the Aquawax was put to use again.  This time the fluid was tinted with Brusho pigment and then brushed over the entire surface. While it was still wet more Brusho sprinkled over it although a squirt of water was needed to activate the powder.

The stencil this time was Dotstream and a different crackle/embossing paste.  This paste also sucked up the colour and left to dry.  A section of the board swiped with a pallet knife and some DecoArt Crackle Paste.  I wanted to see how the two crackle pastes would interact the glossy paste filled the area between the stencilled dots but that was all.  When everything was dry the previously painted Tando Mini's Owls were added.

These were great fun to do and and are fabulous little sample boards that I can refer back to in the future.

Halloween Week- Nevermore- Fiona Randall

 

Morning all it's Halloween Week here on the Tando Blog.

Rather than the Traditional Halloween of Scary withches, Pumpkins, Skeletons and Bats I decided to go Dark and Gothic With a Poe themed project.

I started with a Tando Gothic Arch Layered frame and glued together all the frame pieces and then gave it a coat of DecoArt Chalky Finish in Carbon. Then added a couple of coats of DecoArt Ultra Matte Varnish to seal. I then decided to create my background Paper using a gothic Halloween Stamp from Tim Holtz. I used the old technique of stamping with versamark ink adding embossing powder and heat set. Next I inked all over with black soot distress ink. I then covered with a piece of paper and applied a hot iron all over to remove the embossing powder leaving me with a grungy distressed background. I  then cut a piece of Tando greyboard to the desired size and added the background paper and then inked the edges with a Black Archival Ink Pad. I then cut another panel of grey board to size used an edger die to achieve the Ornate edge at the top. I then gave this the same treatment as the frame. The gothic layered fram comes with arch shaped inner pieces and I applied the left over background paper to this also. I then glued the frame to the arch base and inserted the paper covered inner piece. A tando bookplate was then painted and a stamped image of Poe attached. this was then glued to the inner frame. Some Tando Harlequin extra thins were given the same embossing treatment as the background paper. A raven and the title were then stamped and fussy cut. Finally all the layers were applied to the base layered up with off cuts of grey board to give depth and dimension. The title and the raven added to complete.

I hope you have enjoyed this short little tutorial. Do stop by the rest of the week to see what the other Team Members have in store for you.

Vintage Week- Fiona Randall

 Morning all Fiona here with this weeks theme- Vintage.

 

 

I went with a Tando size 9 tag as my base for this project.

 I created an inky background with Distress inks in vintage photo and speckled egg onto white 300gsm cardstock.

 This was then cut to shape and glued to the tag base. Next up stamping with vintage stamps with Watering Can Archival ink.

 The Tando bookplate was  given a coat of  DecoArt Tinting Base and then glazed using speckled Egg distress glaze.

Tando extra thins harlequin were inked with vintage photo distress ink and then stamped with potting soil archival ink

  All elements were layered up onto the tag and a butterfly added.

 To finish some seam binding was coloured using the speckled egg ink and dried and added to the tag. A quote was then added to finish.

 I think I achieved the vintage feel with the colours chosen and stamp choices I made.

Anything Goes Week- Fiona Randall

 

 

 

 

Morning all Fiona here with this weeks theme- Anything Goes.

For my contribution this week I have used one of my Layered Tags produced by Tando.

As most of you know I love Butterflies so decided to use the butterfly layered tag from set 3.

The top tag layer was given a coat of DecoArt Media Tinting base to start. Collage Tissue paper was then applied to the left side and then stamping with black archival ink.The whole  tag  was then given a coat of clear Gesso. DecoArt Media modelling paste mixed with white gesso was the applied through the Tando Dots Stencil to the top and bottom of the tag on the left side only. Once dry I added white gesso to areas to fade out parts of the stamping. Washes of DecoArt Media Fluid Acrylic in Prussian Blue was then added. Drying between layers to build up depth of colour in areas. Washes of DecoArt Media Fluid Acrylic in Carbon Black was then added around the edges th shade and darken. Spatters were then added with DecoArt Media Fluid Acrylic in white. The Butterfly design which is cut into the centre of the tag was embossed with white embossing enamel as was the piece of Tando Diamond Grid. The main Butterfly focal point was stamped onto watercolour paper and coloured with washes of the Prussian blue fluid acrylic adding more concentrated colour to the centre to add depth. A piece of white cardstock was stamped with a text stamp and glued to the base tag. the top layer tag was then glued to the base tag and the edges given a coat of DecoArt Media Fluid Acrylic in Carbon Black. The diamond grid was then glued to the centre and the butterfly attached to finish.

In The Round Week- Fiona Randall

 

 

Morning all Fiona here with this weeks theme- In The Round.

I love circles and use them whenever I can.

 

 

I've used various circles on this tag stamped and given a mystical astrological feel from Tando's Grab Bag of circles. The Tando grey board tag was given a coat of DecoArt Chalky finish in Carbon. Next up some splattering with DecoArt Media Fluid Acrylic in silver and stamping to create the night sky. The Circles were then layered up onto the tag using off cuts of grey board to give depth and dimension.I then added  the little Tando Arrows embossed with white embossing powder on top of the moon circle. Of course I had to add a butterfly from my favourite stamp set from Chocolate Baroque. The tag was then mounted onto a grey board panel. To finish a sentiment was then added to the base of the tag.

ATC Week- Fiona Randall

 

 

Morning all it's ATC week here on the Tando Blog.

 

It's been a while since I made an ATC and it was so enjoyable creating in this mini size so I made a matching pair.

The ATC's were cut from Tando Grey Board sheets and the corners rounded using a corner chomper. They were then spritzed with DecoArt Media Misters and stamped with text stamps using black Archival Ink.

 

 

 

I then mounted the ATC's onto a plaque cut from Tando Grey Board sheets which was given a coat of DecoArt Chalky Finish in Carbon.  Of course I had to add my signature Butterflies..... why not.

some doodling using a white posca paint pen to the edges and a word chip to finish.

Anything Goes Week - Binder Step by Step

Morning all,

I have a Step by Step on Di's Binder from Hochanda last week for you today,  the way I have decorated the outside of mine.

Make sure you lay the kit out, and work out which hinges fit which side to line up with their corresponding stitching holes, and your book covers are the right way up.  Continue to work on them as you have laid them out so you don't do any stamping/stencilling etc upside down. (if you choose stamps that need to be the right way). I'm talking from experience on a previous project here :)

Step 1.
Using Di's long tag Numbers stencil, put Structure Paste through onto the book covers in random areas.  Then take Crackle Paint, and using a palette knife, add random patches all over the two covers, and then more on all the hinges to cover (not the bendy spine).

Step 2.
Paint the whole book in white Tinting Base, paint or gesso, your preference, it won't make much difference to the finish.

Step 3.
Dry Brush everything, using Carbon Black paint.  This brings all the little crackle to life, and highlights the numbers.

Step 4:
Stencil using Quinacridone gold, through the coffee stains stencil, in random areas all over. 

Assemble the book, using pegs or clips if needed to hold the hinges in place while drying, I did one side of the book then turned to do the back.  Once all glued, you can stitch through the holes, giving extra strength and character to the binder.  Use Ribbon or Elastic, or you could stitch a button to the back latch and use as a hook from the front.  (I haven't stitched mine yet).

You can still purchase your binders, and get Di's online workshop with this link.   It's well worth it, and Di's folder is beautiful and easy to follow.  (I did the workshop myself :)

Best Wishes,

Nikki K
