Deli-cious

I had an ATC Swap this past weekend with the theme- use Deli paper.  I experimented a bit using the Gelli plate and Sweet Stamps stencils.

And


And

  I made prints on cardstock and the Gelli Paper using Acrylic Paints. I used the Delli paper as Faux Washi and as the die cut on the butterfly on the 1st two sets, and on the flower stems for the third set.

  I experimented on the 2nd set by adding white inks in various ways- one I added the ink directly thru the stencil, one I traced the stencil pattern in White ink pen and the third I added white paint with the tip of an eraser. I added the Tulip stencil 1st on the under layer.

 On the third set, I added shimmer with a Spica Pen- it is very hard to see in the picture, and dots with the White Paint Pen.

Supplies I used from the Sweet Stamps Store:



Happy Mother's Day to all.  I hope you all have a Blessed Weekend.

Thanks for stopping by!

Birds on a Wire


The background for the birds was created with Tim Holtz Distress Spray Stains.  After adding all the color I spritzed with the white Picket Fence and blew some of the spots with an airbrush.

The bookboard birds were heat embossed with 3 coats of Vintage Black powder to create dimension and round them out.  The piece was attached to the card with Aleene's tacky glue.
