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.

Thanks for stopping by today,

do come back throughout the week

 to see what other delights the creative team have in store.

Stay Safe

Stencils week by Dee

Hi everyone Dee here with my make for the stencil week here at Tando creative. I hope you are all well and keeping safe. My husband has just found out that he is back to work on Saturday next week and my son is moving back to London I think I will feel a bit lonely I have got used to the house being busy.

For this one I chose the lovely Andy Skinner Retro set which contains five stencils. I used 3 of the greyboard tags which I then applied texture sand past through 3 of the stencils. 

I followed with acrylic paint using an assortment of techniques just playing really.

Some close ups.

The top tag was varnished with a gloss varnish the other 2 were finished with ultra matt varnish. These really are a great little set of stencils to have in your stash.

Cheers Dee x

Stencil Week- Fiona Randall

 

 

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

 

 

 

I've used one of my favourite go to stencils from Tando- The Long Flourish Stencil on the large circles and also the Tando Dot Stream stencil in the background. Teamed up with Chocolate Baroque Butterfly and Text Stamps. Love how this came together with just a few simple supplies.

 

Do stop by the rest of the week to see what the other Team Members have in store for you.

Stenciled Square

Hi there!
Celia here, and this week our theme is stencils. I’m a bit obsessed with stencils so I thought I’d just let rip on one of the Tando greyboard squares. First I put down a quick background of DecoArt chalk paint in Escape and Vintage.

Then I started layering up with some blues (Tando 4x4 ‘distressed diamonds’ , stitches)

...and some purple (4x4 ‘distressed sequins’ , Andy Skinner ‘Whirlpool’)

...and some green (long stencil ‘rings’ ) and some numbers in black (Tando 4x4 ‘numbers’)

...and then some circles with the Chalk Paint (Tando 6x6 ‘Grid Round’). Then a bit of crackle paste and Andy Skinners ‘Baroque’ stencil, which I painted with a wash of Prussian Blue when dry.
Here’s the finished background. You can see that by layering up the stencils you can obtain a very complex looking background.

Then I painted my embellishments with gold and silver, and used embossing powder on the heart. (Small clock, Hearts Grab Bag) before sticking it all together.
And here’s the finished piece.

I hope you manage to get creative with stencils this week!

Thanks for stopping by,

Stencilled Card

This week the theme is stencils and I've made a very quick card:

The stencils are perfect as a background for a stamped image, keeping it clean and simple.

I've inked thought the Giraffe Mini Stencil, which is one of my favourites for a simple background.

All that is needed then is a focal point and a greeting.

Houses & Butterfly's by Dee

Hi everyone Dee here with the beautiful houses that Di has made they were on Hochanda on Monday when Di launched them they are fabulous. they are 3D houses with outers I didn't use them but some of the team used them as a book there were some fabulous design's.

I gave them a coat of gesso them a coat of matt medium, crackle paste was applied and collage paper once happy and the paste was dry I followed with another coat of matt medium. Distress crayons were used to apply the colour once I was happy I followed with resist spray.

I added butterfly's to finish off the possibility are endless.

Anything Goes- Wall Art- Fiona Randall

 

 

 

 

Morning Fiona here with my contribution for this weeks theme- ANYTHING GOES-

 

I have had this kit in my stash for awhile now and thought it was about time to finally complete it to hang in my Kitchen. As many who know me all know, I have a bit of a thing for Butterflies and use them in my projects at every opportunity LOL..

So these new Butterflies that Di showcased on her Hochanda show yesterday have also made an appearance here too.

 

 

 

I love how this project turned out.

Do stop by the rest of the week to see what the other DT members have in store for you.
