Find Joy In your Journey - With Bee Arty!

 Hi Lovelies!

Today I have a scrapbook page to share with you made using lots of amazing products from Bee Arty in particular the  new Fearless Brave Free Collection designed by Fiona Paltridge.
 
 
I'm playing along with the September creative challenge "Use Pink and Yellow from the Bee Arty Logo". We would love for you to join in with this challenge and be in the running to win a Bee Arty store voucher. You have until September 30 and you need to upload your challenge here.  

 
To start with I create a background on a sheet of Chance patterned paper from the Fearless Brave Free Collection. I wanted to add more mixed media to the already watercolour look design. I painted some Slipper Colour Artist ink onto the Free Hand stencil then stamped it onto the background in places.
 

 
Next I applied Tangereen Dream Colour Paste through the Directions stencil to the page.
 

 
Then I added splatters of Citrus, Cider and Slipper Colour Artist inks across the page.

 
Next I added stamping using the Making your mark stamp set, and Memories stamp set.

I cut out some die cuts using the Frame die and Abstract Circles dies using Strength paper.    

I also coloured white gauze with Citrus Colour Artist ink.   

 
Here is my finished page.

 
I used the Frame die cut around my photo then added the coloured gauze, Butterfly effect diecut and Sweet Floral metal diecut. 
 
 
I also added words cut from the Seeker paper from the Follow Your Dreams collection


  
In the bottom right corner I added more diecuts, coloured gauze and a title.

 
Thanks so much for stopping by

Graduation - With Scrapping Clearly!

 Hi Lovelies!

Today I have a scrapbook page that I created using  the Heidi Swapp Color Fresh collection available at Scrapping Clearly!

I started by creating a watercolour background on white cardstock using Prima Watercolor Confections. I used a painting with plastic technique then added additional splatters of each colour.

Here is my finished page. 

  Underneath my photo I have layered a number of papers from the Heidi Swapp Color Fresh collection - these designs are so pretty.

  In the bottom right corner of the photo I have added an embellishment cluster that includes a paper foilie, die cuts, paper flowers and chipboard stickers from Vicki Boutin Wildflower & Honey collection.

  
 
In the top left corner of the photo I have added a similar embellishment cluster. 

  Along the left edge of the page I have added more strips of paper from the collection and a card cut from one of the pages - perfect for journaling on!

 

Thanks so much for stopping by!

She Is Drama - Art Journalling With Scrapping Clearly!

Hi Lovelies!

Today I have an art journal page that I created using lots of fun products available at Scrapping Clearly!
 
 
This page is created in my Black Square Dylusions Journal. I start by creating a Distress Oxide background using a painting with plastic technique. I use Wilted Violet and Broken China Distress Oxides. Distress Oxides show up so well on a black background - I love the effect. 

Next I created custom texture pastes using a mix of Heidi Swapp ColorShine Teal and Amethyst mixed with whipped spackle. I added this through a stencil as a feature on my page.  
 
 
To finish my page I found this image on Pinterest and printed it out on photo paper. I added coloured gauze and white diecuts on two corners of the photo. I also added some Tim Holtz Idea-ol-ogy Small Talk Word Stickers and a Heidi Swapp Sugar Chic Buzz Word.

Here are some close-ups of my page.

Acetate Tag - With Bee Arty!

Hi Lovelies!

Today I have a tag to share with you made using lots of amazing products from Bee Arty!
 
I created this tag as part of last weekend's Great Australian Craft Show and you can see a video here

  

I've created the tag using some plain acetate/transparency and the new Fearless Brave Free Collection designed by Fiona Paltridge. 

My tag is 8cm wide by 16cm long. I stamped along the left edge and bottom of the tag using Stazon and the Fearless stamp. Then I applied Deep Water Colour Paste through the Directions stencil also along the left and bottom of the tag.

I added some ribbons to the top of the tag and an embellishment cluster along the bottom. The cluster included papers from the Fearless Brave Free paper collection, Black die cuts from the Abstract circles metal dies, white gauze and a flair.

Junk Journal Part 2- With Scrapping Clearly!

  Hi Lovelies!

Today I have part 2 of a junk journal project that I created using lots of fun products available at Scrapping Clearly!

 

 I'm using a Scrap FX junk journal kit LACE . I used my 8"x10" gel press and a variety of DWM acrylic paints and Dylusions paints to create backgrounds on the pages of this kit before I stitched them together.

Here are more pages of the journal.  Element clusters have been added along with splatters of DWM gloss sprays, stamping, and Tim Holtz Idea-ol-ogy Small Talk Word Stickers. I also used some old bottle caps to stamp in gold paint on the pages.


  

This element is cut from a sheet of Scrap FX funky Folk Snarky cardstock

 














I'm half way through this journal and want to do something different with the rest of the pages. When I have finished I will show you more.

 Thanks so much for stopping by!
