GD Berry Bleu 71

 Hi everyone,
I'm very happy and honored about this new GD by
Berry 71 bleu
thank you very much for invinting me :-)

- Books are friends -

a new art journal page in altered art style.
In background I worked with a napkin (books), 
then I used a lot of stencils and stamps.
I love 3D and special effects, here I stamped a face. 
In the upper part I made a cut, used a die for the tag and swirl.
So you can enter in minds of the lady :-)
and my page!


























 

 for this page I used for the first time Decoupage Antique as glue 
and Antiquing Cream Titanium white and I must say I was thrilled about the result, you can see a really good aged effect.
The cream is fast drying but can easily be wiped back from undesired areas.



Challenge
Simon says stamp Monday Challenge 
 No ordinary paper (old book paper, napkin + natural gift paper for the tag)

Happy crafting!!

Inspire

Hi everyone,

today a new project from the experimental laboratory ;-) it was my first try with a chalky finish paint. 
What should I say I was thrilled about the matte look in vintage style. I used an old wood hanger, because Upcycling is my second name ;-) .
 Just get started and try out :-)




Supplies



+ distress inks Walnut stain , Faded Jeans
+ chipboards from Creative embellishments
+ Staz on Spiced Chat
+ Viva Decor stamp ''At the seaside''


How I made this:

1. undercoating with Fluid Acrylics Blue green light + Cobalt Teal
2. painted on upper edge with Titanium White
3. after drying, primer with chalky finish Timeless
4. apply crackle glaze -results based on thickness of application
5. after drying use a stencil and stamp
7. use spray paints - here Distress Ink + water + mini Mister
8. finally glue on chipboards


                                                         
 with my first nautical knot ;-)




             crackle glaze -results based on thickness of application
 use brushes or a palette knife
