In the Meadow at Stamps and Stencils
Hi everyone, time for our next challenge at Stamps and Stencils and this month the lovely Rachel has chosen the theme which is all about meadows...
'Meadows are such amazing places - lots of different grasses, wild flowers and wonderful wildlife. Let your imagination run wild ...and use stamps or stencils too! Enjoy!'
What a lovely topic, time for fresh spring colours and I created some journal pages which is something I've not done for a while.
I like working on Kraft card and scraped gesso and some of the new blue paints from Seth Apters winter set, think Venice Blue, Steel Grey and Double Denim are making an appearance today. Floral and square stencils used on the first layers.
I've used one of my own hand carved stamps here as it matched in quite well with the geometric elements.
More layering and stamping with a little Toffee and Caramel paint.
Glass Bead gel, Treasure Gold and Decoart White Crackle paste.
Sleight Blue and In the Navy infusions on glossy card stock before die cutting with Tim's Wildflower dies.
Isn't the effect pretty?
I used the waste as a stencil too.
White textured 'earth' for the flowers to grow out of.
I do like texture..
Love the contrast of the glossy flowers against the background.
Hope you're inspired to join in, hop across here for more inspiration from the design team and as always thanks for stopping by. Ruth xx
