Hi Crafty Lovelies!
Today I have a scrapbook page and an ATC to share with you made using the
Blooming Gnomes collection available from
Bee Arty.
I'm playing along with the colours in the April mood board and have been inspired by the sketch. We would love for
you to join in with this challenge and be in the running to win a Bee
Arty online voucher. You have until April 30th and you need to
upload your challenge
here (please follow
challenge rules).
I created a mixed media background on a sheet of
350gsm Heavy White Cardstock. I was inspired by the background of the sketch so I used a pencil to mark some background squares, then I added a wash of colour using Espresso, Thunder Blue, and Emerald
Mica powder inside each square. When dry I added splatters of each of these colours. Then I used my sewing machine to stitch around the edges.
Here is my finished page.
I've been inspired by all the Artist Trading Card (ATC) swaps I've seen on social media. Although I haven't been part of any groups, I have created some for myself. They have a great small size of 2.5"x3.5" so are an achievable project in a limited time. This card was created using leftovers from my Blooming Gnomes projects :).
Blooming Gnomes is a romantic collection with quirky vibes, and is designed by the talented Karen Yates. You will love this collection - the stamps, stencils and dies are not to be missed! You can subscribe to the kit here. Kits come with a paper pack, stencils, metal dies, stamp sets, embellishments and full colour kit instructions.
Thanks so much for stopping by
