Hello everyone and welcome back! As you might have guessed it's time for a new Challenge over at SIMON SAYS STAMP...and, as usual, it's another Art Journal Spread!!!
Tra poco sarà il nostro Anniversario di Matrimonio...17 anni volati in un attimo...quindi ho deciso di decorare queste pagine utilizzando una foto che ho fatto recentemente e che mi piace molto. Poichè il tema della sfida del Lunedì è 'WE'RE GOING AROUND IN CIRCLES' ho appunto aggiunto vari cerchi, utilizzando stencil, timbrate e fustelle...inoltre è stata l'occasione perfetta per continuare la mia sperimentazione con i Distress Oxides!
In few days will be our Wedding Anniversary...17 years flown away in a heartbeat...so I have decided to make a Journal spread using a photo that I love. Since the new Monday challenge theme is 'WE'RE GOING AROUND IN CIRCLES' I added different kind of circles using stencils, stamps and die cuts...plus has been the perfect occasion to continue my experiments with Distress Oxides!
Per prima cosa ho coperto le pagine con il Gesso Bianco, poi ho provato ad utilizzare la tecnica 'Resist' di KATH, usando il Distress Crayon Picket Fence attraverso uno stencil...perfetta!
Poi ho utilizzato i Distress Oxide Vintage Photo e Cracked Pistachio con lo stencil 'Specimens' di TCW.
Ho incollato dei ritagli di carta e del pizzo per creare della texture, poi sempre con lo stencil di prima ho aggiunto anche della Modeling Paste.
Ho diluito in acqua i Magicals della Lindy's Stamp Gang Tibetan Poppy Teal e Drop Dead Gorgeous Green ed ho iniziato a spruzzarli sulle pagine, Poi con il Distress Blending Tool ho steso prima il Distress Ink Antique Linen e poi il Vintage Photo...e poi via con lo SPRITZ & FLICK!!!
Ho voluto provare anche a timbrare con i Distress Oxides e sono perfetti anche per quello!
Per le timbrate ho usato D.O. Broken China e Vintage Photo.
Ho fatto cadere qualche goccia di Magicals qua e la e ripulito le zone dove avevo steso il Distress Crayon con una salviettina. Ho aggiunto delle fustellate per creare i cerchi (anche se irregolari, ma danno sicuramente più movimento alla pagina) la scritta 'Together' l'ho tagliata usando le Thinlits 'Handwritten Love' di Tim Holtz ed il cuore con il Mini Love Struck Set Movers&Shapers sempre di Tim. Entrambi li ho dipinti con i D.O. Cracked Pistachio e Broken China. Poi ho aggiunto qualche tocco di Distress Ink Ground Espresso.
Ho infine aggiunto alcuni chipboard che ho poi dipinto con Opal Magic Acrylic Paint Aqua-Rose di Finnabair/Prima.
First thing I gessoed the pages, then used the 'Distress Crayon Resist Technique' explained by KATH in her blog...just perfect!
Used Distress Oxides Vintage Photo and Cracked Pistachio with the 'Specimens' stencil by TCW.
Glued some paper scraps and lace to create some texture and using again the Specimens stencil, added some Modeling Paste.
Diluted Lindy's Stamp Gang Magicals Tibetan Poppy Teal and Drop Dead Gorgeous Green in a bottle with water and started spraying on the pages, then with the Distress Blending Tool added first Antique Linen Distress Ink, then Vintage Photo...and...on with the SPRITZ & FLICK!!!
I wanted to try to stamp with Distress Oxides and I have to say that they are perfect even for this!
I have used D.O. Vintage Photo and Broken China.
Flicked few drops of Magicals here and there and clean with a baby wipe where I have used the 'Resist' Technique. Added few die cuts as circles (Though very 'unconventional', they definitely add something to the spread), the word 'Together' is cut using Tim Holtz Thinlits 'Handwritten Love', while the Heart is from Tim's Mini Love Struck Set of Movers&Shapers. Both have been painted using D.O. Cracked Pistachio and Broken China, then added a touch of Ground Espresso Distress Ink.
As final touches added few 'bubbly' chipboards which I painted using Finnabair/Prima Opal Magic Acrylic Paint Aqua-Rose.
So this is it...I submit this project to the following challenges...
- SIMON SAYS STAMP MONDAY CHALLENGE: WE'RE GOING AROUND IN CIRCLES
- SIMON SAYS STAMP WEDNESDAY CHALLENGE: ANYTHING GOES
Alla prossima...
See you next time...
Kisses&Hugs!
Simo.
