June Colour Theme Tag

Hi there!
The colour theme for June are these gorgeous colours:

I collected together some materials in these colours and grabbed one of the large size 9 tags. I started off with a base coat of Whisper chalk paint with a little bit of the honey colour brushed through it. Then I stippled, mono-printed and stencilled with the darker colours to make my background. I used some of the Tando mini stencils for this.

I was starting to get some Mediterranean vibes so I thought one of France’s lizard stamps from Creepers and Crawlers would work well here. I stamped him with Versamark and sprinkled a few different sand coloured embossing powders over before heat setting. Then I cut a piece of the ‘wire’ extra thins and coated it in a verdigris powder (Wow Sea Of Tranquility by Seth Apter) so that it looked like a bit of old wire fencing. 

Here’s my finished tag.

Thanks for stopping by!

Texture Week- Mini Book by Monika Maksym

Hi all!

It's last day of Texture Week and here the project I've created for you.

I love mini books and I'm trying to build a small collection of them :)

This time I wanted to create something with a shabby twist. 

To start with I've embossed greay board sheet and cut front and back cover and glued them on.

Using Tando mini stencil and Decoart Modeling Paste I've added some texture on both covers.

I've paited them with Chalky Finish Paint in Everlasting. Once dry I've repeated the step using shade Serene.

I've applied DecoArt Media Antiquing Cream in Medium Grey all over and using wet tissue wiped back the excess. I've run sanding paper over the stenciled area to reveal white paint underneath.

Crown embellishment was painted in Relic and highlighted with Metallic Lustre Wax in Silver.

I hope you like my inspiration.

See You next time
