Paperartsy - Masterboards

Hi ya, wow didn't December arrive quickly lol.  I thought I had better post my first Christmas Card before January comes :-).  Today I am playing along with Paperartsy and their challenge is Masterboards which I have really become to love.  I have so many different ways and most of this years cards are done this way, totally in my style, lots of painty mess :-).  Each day this week I shall be posting lots of Christmas creations, plus today I have a tutorial showing how I made my masterboard.  All the products I used are at the bottom of the post :-).

 I used the masterboard panel and added some script stamping with very light

silver, some dots and silver embossing powder.

I stamped the sentiment in black, then added some bubble wrap stamping.

I also embossed a postmark.  The chipboard bauble was covered with the tissue

and then a script embossed with silver.  The Noel was cut out and added

with some silver string.  Some scribble lines completed the card.

Tissue for texture

The tissue left over from underneath the patterned tissue.

I used sprays to give some shine.  Underneath is a piece of mixed media card

so I can make another masterboard for more cards.

I literally stuck my fingers in the paint and spread with my hand.

Next brayer snowflake

Used bubble wrap

then some fruit covering

not sure where I got this from but it makes lovely little diamonds.

Next I used hologram embossing powder

you can see here how subtle it is.

Some stamping on the tissue

Why do we end up working in such a small space lol

This is the start of the masterboard from the spraying the tissue.

Did another one in green.  Really love the pattern the tissue makes.

Thank you so much for visiting, I shall be back tomorrow.

Happy Art :-)

Funky Flowers Journal Page

Good morning, I know it's been over a week since I blogged.  Mum was rushed into hospital and when she came out Aunt Tensy who I look after was rushed in. Mum is out now doing well and Aunt Tensy at 97 is doing fine and hopefully will be out next week.  So Today I am here with the other side of the Journal page I showed you HERE, the page that had mop up on it.  As you can see from the pictures it started rather messy, it then went through some more messy before ending up complimenting the journal page next to it :-).
I would like to enter the following challenges -
Our Creative Corner Challenge - Topsy Turvy (this page definitely went through several Topsy Turvy moments.  The 4 pics after the first one shows them lol)
Addicted To Stamps and More Challenge - Anything Goes
Rhedd's Creative Spirit Challenge - Anything Goes Mixed Media or Altered

I used the same verse as it seemed appropriate for both pages.

The above is the right hand side page which was a mop up page of the

original left hand side page. (ok that sentence sounds topsy turvy lol)

Today over at That Craft Place Challenge Blog it's mixed media anything goes, so why don't you add your creations, it would be great to see them.  Thank you all for taking the time to visit.
Happy Art :-)

Good evening, hope your all well.  I am popping on to show you all my ultra messy workspace, I have a few projects on the go and the mess is everywhere.  My Sister thinks it's funny, she is the one who is messy and I am always organised.  But since becoming addicted to mixed media I am mega messy, everything else might be organised but seriously my art room isn't.  When I am in the zone I literally zone out lol.  I usually end up working on a small space as everything else is covered, including the floor lol.  Why am I showing you my workspace?  Today is Wednesday and since I am back to blogging, I really have to join in with WOYWW (what's on your workdesk wednesday) where everyone shows their creative space and I have really missed it :-).

Lots to look at, the girl I am in the middle of is for Lifebook workshop I am doing,

the paints out are for that and another page I am working on.  The mini canvas top

left is for a DT piece I am doing.

Collage papers and tissue waiting to put on another journal page I am about to start.

The rest are mop up pages.

This is the next thing I am working on, the top page is for a card and underneath

is a start of another Lifebook page.

The middle box is full of mop up papers and bits of collage ready to punch out

to send with swaps or add to ATC's.

The sun girl is a lifebook page I have just finished and shall be 

blogging about over the next few days.  Underneath that another Lifebook

page that is almost done.  New stamps and rub ons.

A journal for Donna Downey's Inspiration Wednesday just finished and

a non stick varnish from Decoart is drying on it, (brilliant stuff, takes all the

sticky feeling away and your pages don't stick).

The stamps are for a postcard swap, the colourful pages are more mop

up pages that I worked on to make a bit nicer for collage.

Right that's me done.  Hope you like my creative workspace.  I shall be back with a journal page in a few days.  Thank you so much for taking the time to visit.

Happy Woyww :-)
