Mixed Media

I have only really ventured into the realm of mixed media once before and after today I can see the attraction.

Using an old cover from a catolougue I had a rough idea of what I wanted to do and generally just went at it.  Here are a few photos.

Used: 

Dylusions stamps, DCWV Collage Stack, PITT Big Brush pens, Gelatos, black PITT pen, white Sharpie, Claudine Helmuth multi Matt, Tim Holtz Spltter stencil and stamps, rough collage paste and Gesso.

Great fun and will definately be doing this again.

Happy Thursday to you all.

Gelatos and Inktense Pencils

Faber Castell Gelatos and Derwent Inktense pencils.

This week I have been having fun using some new art mediums as a means of expanding my creative skills.  I have never used watercolour pencils before and having watched many hours of amazing and very talented people using Gelatos I had to have a try.  So here is my first effort.

I covered some watercolour paper with the gelatos blended them with water using a wide brush and once dry I stamped on top with this really cute stamp using Versafine ink in black.

I then went about colouring in, what a joy.  Fantastic fun.  

I adhered it onto a slightly larger piece of cardstock which I had inked with Tim Holtz Distress Inks, in Broken China, Tumbled Glass and Faded Jeans.  I then adhered this onto my white card and distressed inked around the edge with more Tumbled Glass and my ink blending tool.
