Ponies - With Bee Arty!

 Hi Lovelies!

Today I have a scrapbook page to share with you made using lots of fabulous arty products from Bee Arty
 
 
I'm playing along with the March mood-sketch challenge. 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 March 30th and you need to upload your challenge here (please follow challenge rules). 

 
I was initially inspired by the butterfly in the sketch so I took a sheet of 350gsm Heavy White Cardstock and used the Fairy Wings A5 stencil (from the Whispering Woods collection) and some Deep Water  Colour Paste.

 
I used a painting with plastic technique to add Deep Water and Jungle Mica powders.

 
Then I added splatters of Deep Water, Jungle, Lemon Zing, Steel, Polar and Olive Grove Mica powders. The colours were inspired by the moodboard and the pattern was inspired by the sketch.


I added stamping using the Mapped stamp from the Road Trip collection, and the Memories (script) stamp and Black Archival ink. I created a title using the Uppercase stamp set from the Fireworks collection. I also added splatters of Midnight Shimmer Dust. Then I used my sewing machine to add stitching around the edge of the page.
 
 
Here is my completed page. 

 
I've matted my photo on layers of paper offcuts from the the Road Trip collection. The leaves and cups are fussy cut from the Road Trip Collection Cover paper. The words are cut from the Vacay paper, also from the Road Trip Collection. I've added a flower diecut from the Calendula metal die set (Bohemian Bliss collection).
  
   
 
Lastly I've added journalling using a fine black Life of Colour paint pen.

Roses and Iris's - With Bee Arty!

  Hi Lovelies!

Today I have a scrapbook page to share with you made using products from the new Fireworks collection from Bee Arty
 
   
I was inspired by the colours of the February mood-sketch challenge. 
 
I created a background on 350gsm Heavy White Cardstock by painting an 18cmx18cm square using Grape Colour Spray mixed with water in a paint palate and a large flat brush. I've created an ombre effect being darker at the bottom and lighter at the top. 
 

I mixed 4-6 drops of Grape Colour Spray with 1-2 tablespoons of heavy gloss gel then used a palate knife to apply through the Fireworks stencil from the Fireworks collection.  
 

I applied more of the Grape / gloss gel through the star section of the Fireworks stencil in the top right and bottom left sides of the page.   

Once dry I added splatters of Grape Colour Spray.
 
 
 Here is my completed page.
 
 
 My photos are 7cmx7cm including a white border. I've matted these with 8cmx8cm Sparkles paper from the Fireworks collection then adhered to the page. I've used diecuts from the grass die from the Forest Favourites metal die set and the Sweet Floral metal die. All die cuts are created using 250gsm white cardstock and are painted using the Grape Colour Spray.
 
 
I've used words cut from the Colourful paper from the Fireworks collection and alpha stamps from the Uppercase stamp set. Lastly I've outlined my page using a fine black Life of Colour paint pen.

The Best Memories - With Bee Arty!

  Hi Lovelies!

Today I have a scrapbook page to share with you made using the Road Trip collection from Bee Arty.
 
 
I'm playing along with the January mood-sketch challenge. 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 January 30th and you need to upload your challenge here (please follow challenge rules). 
 

I have been inspired by the colours of the moodboard and also the sketch (turned on the side).
 
I used a painting with plastic technique to add Oasis, Calypso and Mermaid Colour Artist ink to some 350gsm Heavy White Cardstock, then I added splatters of each colour.
 
I used the City Nights A6 stencil from the Road Trip collection and Deep Water Colour Paste to add dimension to the page.  

 
I added stamping using the Mapped stamp and the Making Tracks stamp set from the Road Trip collection, and Black Archival ink.  
 
 
 Here is my completed page.
 
 
 I've used a sheet of Road paper and cut matts for my photo using different designs on the front and back of this paper. My photo is 9cmx12cm printed with a white border. I've added 5 different patterned paper layers, some book paper, a kraft tag, and torn cardboard layers.   
 
 
 I've fussy cut elements from the Spy paper as well as leaves from the Road Trip Collection Cover paper. The words are cut from the Vacay paper, also from the Road Trip Collection.  
 
 
 Lastly I've added some orange enamel dots and outlined my page using a fine black Life of Colour paint pen.

Authenticity - With Bee Arty!

 Hi Lovelies!

Today I have an art journal page to share with you made using lots of cool products from Bee Arty.
 
 
I'm using a calico page in my DWM art journal. I start by using a pipette to put droplets of Royalty Shimmer spray on the page then using some plastic packaging to "smoosh" it across the page. Once dry I added drops of Berry Colour Artist Ink and repeated the process. Then I added some Passion Colour Shimmer Dust mixed with water. I also add splatters of each of the colours.
 
 
I added stamping using the Bokeh stamp set from the Grateful heart collection, and black Archival ink.

 
I used the Lined Stencil with Snow White Colour Paste to add some stencilling across the page.  


Here is my completed page. I found a picture on Pinterest and printed it on photo paper and added to the page.

 
I've embellished with papers, fussy cutting and word elements cut from the Untangle collection papers.  I've added white cardstock diecuts created using the Honeycomb metal die. I've added some torn music paper that I sprayed with the Royalty Shimmer spray. I've outlined the words using a fine black Life of Colour paint pen
