LuMania Urban Blue Denim

Hi everyone today I'm sharing an art journal page created using the new LuMania range from Ciao Bella. For this page I've ussd the Urban Blue Denim mixed media book.

To begin, I used matte medium to glue one of the vellum papers to the page. As the matte medium I used was quite wet, I got several wrinkles in the vellum, but I'm not worried about that as it adds another texture to the background.

I then chose the ephemera I wanted to use from the Urban Blue Denim mixed media pad and cut it out. The bird came from one of the papers in the pad and I kept some of the bits of paper that I cut from around it.

Now the matte medium was dry, I applied ground espresso distress oxide through the Enigmatic Essence stencil and fadd jeans distress oxide through the Beaded Curtain stencil to add depth to the background.

Finally I added the ephemera to the page using matte medium.

I hope you like what I have created and here's a list of the products I've used.

Friends are Always There

Hi everyone,  today I'm sharing a step by step guide to creating this quick and easy card using Timestamps Creations newest release.

To begin I cut a piece of kraft card to 2.75 x 5.75 inches. I then pushe a small lucky clover ink pad directly onto this piece of card.

I spritzed this with water and dried it with a heat gun.

Next I chose the groups of people from the stamp set and stamped them and the sentiment with Versafine Clair nocturne ink. 

I then used a black pen to edge my piece of card.

Finally I glued my piece to a 3 x 6 inch card blank.
