Helloooo,
Happy Weekend everyone,
Can't believe it is here again, where
are the weeks going....
May tomorrow, that's scary.
This week we are featuring the
fabulous Woodware stamps.
Today is Dawn's turn,
This is what Dawn has to say....
Hi crafty friends,
I've made some bookmarks this week,
thought they would go with the recipe
book made a few weeks ago. I've used
the same stamp but in a difference
way by cutting up the elements. This
is what I love about Woodware stamps,
each stamp can be used multiple ways
and they really are quality clear stamps and
affordable. So do check them out.
To make the main bookmark pieces.
On
A4 card, use distress inks to colour all over.
Then take the Liquid Pearls and squeeze
some on a brayer and roll onto the inked card.
Repeat all over card with both colours. Then
brayer over this with a light layer of
white gesso. Let dry then repeat with
Liquid Pearls as before. Let dry.
Cut into strips to make bookmarks.
Next use the Sequin Waste Mask and
the orange from Neon Ink set to
stencil parts of the bookmarks.
Then using the little Happy wording from
Flowers In A Row stamp set, stamp with
red Stazon ink across the bookmarks. Edge
the bookmarks with green pen.
Mount the bookmarks onto a larger
pieces of Orange card.
Next using the Woodware Baking
Sampler Stamp,
stamp the whole image once and then just
the word part another five times.
Colour in with alcohol pens. Then
cut out each section.
Stick the coloured images to the bookmarks.
Then finish with dots of white gesso and the
wrong end of a paint brush around
the bookmarks.
Wow, thank you Dawn, these
are so colourful! I think these would
make a lovely gift!
If you want to have a go,
this is what Dawn used -
Distress Inks - Squeezed Lemonade, Twisted
Citron, Marigold.
Liquid Pearls - Daffodil, Key Lime
That's all for today,
I'll be back with......
Challenge Day!
