Another month is over, April already, where is the year going, although i am pleased the clocks have changed the nights are lighter, its warming up, the garden is coming alive.
APRIL that means i am the guest designer for louise at
thank you Louise for letting me play.
I got to chose what i wanted to play with and i chose the time to dream paper pad and ephemera , sooo much to play with.
so my first project was on the alice in wonderland theme, although it didnt have to be you could use these papers without the theme just as well.
also using a prima doll stamps (as alice)
there was so many elements to play with in the paper pack and the ephemera pack, firstly i inked, painted, stamped and stenciled the canvas.
Alice was stamped, then coloured in with promarkers, then stamped again so i could colour and layer her dress and headband and the bow to make her 3D.
i fussy cut lots out from the papers, the playing cards, flowers tag and drink me bottle.
inked lots and layered everything up using 3d foam pads and 3d gel, and adding some wooden elements, the heart and key, i always lay and move things around a bit first to see roughly where i want it all, nothing is flat, the main flower has several layers to give the canvas height.
the black leaves are from a leaf string from another of Louises kits.
oh and cant forget the splattering.
a fun project and great way to practice lots of techniques, fussy cutting, the background, layering and colouring skin tones.
