Themed Thursday - Card Set

Hi there sweet friends. Marie Johansson here today showing you a card set made with the Tea Time July Nesting Components Mixed Media kit. Let me first tell you a bit about myself. I live in the north of Sweden with my partner and our two kids (10 & 6 years old). I have been scrapbooking since 2004 and my style has developed over the years to now days more fit under Mixed Media Scrapbooking. I love to use different mediums on my projects mixed up with various sorts of embellishments. You are very welcome to visit my blog to see more of my creations.

Both card has a brown cardstock as it´s base. I choose to use different patterned papers from the paper pad that comes with the kit. To match the cards I choose to use leftovers from one card on the other card. I also used the same ribbons, paints and gesso.

For this card I used one of the pictures from the clip art sheet. I have distressed it a bit on the edges to create texture. I don´t like my cards to flat. The ATC chipboard frame from Um Wow Studios made it´s way up on the top of the card. It´s partly covered with gesso. The Swirl stamps turned out nice stamped and embossed with white embossing powder. I have used the same techniques on the card below, gesso on the chipbard, embossing and splatters of mist and paint. It looks totally different though even though the material is the same.

After finishing my card I had some paper strips left. Instead of throwing them away, used them for a set of tags. I used the same materials on these as on the cards.

 I had a lot of fun creating this layout and had fun getting a little messy with some Lindy's Stamp Gang!  I started out with  plain white cardstock to create my layout.  I used the Prairie Wildflowers from Lindy's Stamp Gang and sprayed my non-stick craft sheet with all three of the sprays that come in the set.  I made sure to spray it all over my craft mat and a lot of it!  I then took my white cardstock and placed it on top of my craft mat gently pressing down onto the cardstock to pick up the color.  Next I carefully lifted it up off the craft mat and let some of the ink run off before setting the cardstock right side up to dry.  I love how it turned out and the pink in this Sidekick set is beautiful!  Once my cardstock was dry I used some black gesso and a stencil to add the dots to the corners of my layout and stamped out a couple images using the Art Textures stamp set. I used alot of product from the March Mixed Media Kit to build up my layers in this layout.  The ATC sized paper pack that comes in this months kit worked out perfect to build up layers and I also used a piece to create a tag.  The printed text layer was created by taking a piece of white cardstock and using the Text Melange stamp set to stamp out the script.  I am a big fan of creating my own background!  I also pulled out some left over Cosmo Cricket brads from the Creative Girl Nesting Components kit!  We still have one of these kits available in the shop and for the rest of March you can pick it up for 25% off using the promo code MADNESS at checkout!  Here is a look at my completed layout!

Mixed Media Mondays:Spread your wings Bottle frame

Hello my dear friends and welcome to our Mixed Media Monday! 

 Irit is here today and this time with another Mixed Media project.

My project this time is an altered chipboard Bottle frame from Tando creative, but then it is full of our gorgeous PWP stamps, cut image and all possible mediums too.

It's an easy project to make even for not experienced MM crafter: all the work is done over the solid cream cardstock and  then embellished over the frame.

The cardstock is cut to the basic chipboard shape and then I added a few parts of one single stencil (TCW)  with gesso only. I made it pretty much around the frame as I wanted to leave space for the cut out  image  and for some stamping too.

I used  Build a Shrine set of  stamps- the upper one with an angel  and a part of the Celtic knot here and there. Then I added a few splashed of Textures  stamps and then, as it happens with  frames, the Angel was suddenly all covered. So we need to be creative and I just added it over the frame and over the heat embossed with red powder heart. All inside of the frame was misted with a mix of Nantucket mists set ; 

so was the cut out Angel head.

The girl from Summer clip art sheet was hand cut and glued  over the background. 

Then I stamped a pair of wings from Wings set over vellum and heat embossed with gold embossing glitter. The cut out wings were glued over the  image back and now she became an angel too.

Anything else was just embellishing: golden leave, vintage flowers, some pearls, a bit of lace and the cap, heat embossed with the same glitter as my wings.

This is a lovely vintage piece that can be a great gift to a teen girl who adores fairies and angels, pearls, flowers and golds.
