Potion Master - an assemblage
A process video showing how I made an assemblage with some molded embellishments, gathered twigs and chipboard elements.
I start by painting several elements using acrylic paints - the chipboard shapes and the previously made molded elements. I then treat them using ink to make them look more weathered and worn. I also add a touch of wax to some items - golden wax to lightbulb shapes to make them shine and black chalky wax to add worn effect to the chipboard door and base. I then make a bunch of leaves using dies and inks to add some autumn feel to the piece. Next I then start making the composition. I start with the flatter, bigger elements and then continue with the more dimensional item...

Tea Treat - a set of makes
Просмотров 99День назад
A process video showing me create a bunch of tea bag inspired little bits. Even when they are done I'm not sure how to call them! First I color a piece of cardstock to be used as a master board for the pouches and a smaller strip to be made into tea bags. I use dye crystals and watercolors to color the cardstock. I then cut the master board into strips and add patterns on top. I use stenciling,...
Empowering women - an art journal spread
Просмотров 10214 дней назад
A process video showing me create an art journal spread I titled "Empowering women". The inspiration is from a paper napkin with motifs from Kalevala Koru, a Finnish jewelry company. The jewelry is based on archeological finds. I start the spread by collaging a paper napkin to a piece of cardstock. I use that as my background but also collage some extra elements to be used as embellishments in ...
Marmalade Blooms - a set of cards
Просмотров 8721 день назад
A process video showing me create a set of flower cards. These are my take on the "clean and simple" - so not clean and not even that simple, lol! I start by stamping the focal flowers using watermark ink and a stamping tool. That way I can easily go back if I miss a spot. I emboss the flowers using black embossing powder. I color the blooms with brush tip markers and then add a bit of shine on...
Danse Macabre - an altered vinyl record
Просмотров 113Месяц назад
A step by step styled process video showing me create an altered vinyl record. The vinyl holds "Danse Macabre" by Saint-Saëns - thus the name of the piece. I start the project by adding a dimensional stenciled layer on top of the record. I use modeling paste to create it. I then make a dimensional composition using different elements like metal embellishments and chipboard pieces. I use a heavy...
The Metamorphosis - an art journal spread
Просмотров 146Месяц назад
A process video showing me create an art journal spread I titled "Metamorphosis". I start the page by painting a sheet of cardstock in inky blue tones. I then add visual texture or a pattern on top using a stencil and wax crayons. Instead of applying a medium through the stencil I make a rubbing of it - a frottage. I then make some layering elements using a floral stamp, watermark ink and white...

A step by step styled process video showing me create a set of ATCs. I make four cards with a forest theme. I call the set "The magical forest".

A step by step styled process video showing me create an art journal spread I titled "Quest for Curiosity". I'm starting the spread by adding two colors of acrylic paint on top of a cardstock sheet.

A step by step styled process video showing me create a reversed canvas using Halloween ephemera and elements from my paper stash. I start the canvas by adhering pieces of previously made mixed media papers to the back. This is an easy way to add a mixed media touches to the first layers without having to use a lot of time!

After drying the paint I then add some stamping on top using watermar...

I then add a ...
Giddy-up then! - an inked card
Просмотров 892 месяца назад
A step by step styled process video showing how I created a card combining a stamped horse and die cut flowers. I start by stamping a horse to a piece of Fabriano cardstock. I'm using a stamping tool as I'm not that good of a stamper and I want a nice, crisp image. The stamp I'm using is actually from a winter themed set, but I wanted to combine that to some florals and bring it to summer. Afte...
