Queen of Hearts meets Old Roses


Hello Everybody,

On February the 11th 2020 the new stamps from IndigoBlu will be shown on Hochanda by my dear friend Helen.

For the designteam i made serveral projects. This is my mixed media scrap-layout with the Old Rose.
I really wanted to show you that you can use stamps and stamping in a totally different way... for mixed media projects. 

I stamped the roses on Mica sheets and on paper in 3 different colors. Fallen Leaves & Acron from Versafine Clair and Stazon Jet Black ( for the mica sheets). And is have stamped the old rose with Flitterglu on paper so i could add Megaflakes.


To make the backgrond i had stamped the Bubble Wrap stamp with Versamark clear and than used the lucious powder. I had mixed some luscious powder with structure paste from IndigoBlu and used the Circle dot stencil (ind0548). After the structure paste was dry i stamped with the Acorn and Fallen leaves from Versafine Clair several grunge Dragonflies on the background. The finishing touch for the background was made with the Chicken Wire stamp, flitterglu and flakes.

Than i let it all dry very well and started by cutting out the roses i had stamped. Some of them completely and some of them just the flower or the branches and leaves from the roses.

To give it  more grungy look i painted some gaze with IndigoBlu in the colours of my layout. Let it dry and twisted it around the `branches`.

After that i made a composition with some branches on the right and bottom side, made from rolled cardboard. I put some flowers beneath the branches, and some on top or between them.


All of the items were glued with the Super Thick Slap it on. You can use also the ultra thick gelmedium of Talens. The picture of Ilunaneko as Queen of Hearts really fits to this layout. On top of one of the right  `branches` i have placed a dragonfly stamped on mica and flakes on the backside. 

I really hope you love it. Please leave your comment below.

Love Mo

Just Always Friendship Art journal pages.


I started this new year with 2 new pages in my art Journal.




The firstpage is some of the new Indigoblu stamps vintage flowers IND0588. I coloured the stamp with my tombow ABT markers.  And after i coloured the stamp is sprayed it with a little water. Than is stamped it on waterart papier. 

It gives a wonderfull vintage result. After that is stamped some dots and some extra flowers. The dots i stamped directly on the paper but the extra flowers and the text i stamped on another piece of paper. Than i cut out the flowers. The waterart paper was glued on the corrugated paperpage in my art journal.... the text and some extra flowers gave it a lovely result....


The second page i wanted to be a bit related but absolutely not the same.... which would not be possible also because the second page is a burlap page....


So i stamped the flowers and the circle on tissue paper and glued it on the burlap with the slap it on. medium....this is a matte medium...

And when it dried i put some clear gesso over it....

When it had dried over night i put some colour on the page with versamagic... .my favourite vintage ink.... To give it more depth i draw the flowers with ablack fineliner.... And the finishing touch was made with the chipboard text from 13@rts.


It is always such a pleasure to work with the products of my favourie brands.... IndigoBlu, 13@rts and Snipart....


I hope you like it... please leave your comments below....

Love
Mo
