Nature’s Daydreams by Lynne Moncrieff

PaperArtsy recently released many fabulous new stamps (and stencils and other goodies!), something for all tastes and the launches continue, I wonder what else they have in store!  Keep a check on That’s Crafty’s website to see what new PaperArtsy stock they have in store.

I inked up some recent releases from Eclectica Lin Brown with a That’s Crafty! MDF tag as a substrate.

Supplies

                 Eclectica Everything Art EEA02

That’s Crafty! Surfaces MDF Tag #10

Staz-on Jet Black

Infusions

White Gesso

Gel Medium

Idea-ology Tim Holtz Tiny Attacher

Mister Bottle

Extras:- Calico, various scraps:- sheer fabric, vintage laces, mop-up/under paper, wood slice

Instructions

After a base of white Gesso, apply Infusions to the MDF tag, misting with water. Allow to air dry. At the same time as staining the tag, stain calico and various scraps, I used a variety of vintage crochet lace scraps. I like to leave them to dry on an absorbent surface such as kitchen paper.

Create pattern and texture onto the tag, stamping various ELB and EEA stamps. For the piece of stained calico, stamp the ELB stamp, with additional stamping surrounding the focal. Adhere calico to tag. To bring more texture to the stamped focal, adhere the teeniest fragments of stained vintage crochet lace. 

Stamp word onto scrap of mop-up/under paper and sheer fabric. Layer onto a wood slice, also layering more stained lace. Adhere, near to bottom edge of tag. Finally, attach more stained laces to upper corner. 

Until next week,

Wishes
