Hi everyone. A
little change of style from me today! I recently bought the new special edition
Tracy Scott PaperArtsy Fresco paints so decided to have a play. A friend also
lent me some older JOFY stamps – so I have combined the two to make a few
cards.
I started with
some backgrounds using Prawn, Butternut, Tangerine Twist and Chalk Fresco
paints. Some swiping with a credit card
– building up layers, another background using a paint brush and one spritzing
the leftover paint and building up a splattered background.
Next I started
stamping, cutting and punching – I used the flowers and butterfly from JOFY 32.
The cut out flowers are mounted on kraft card that I have added some gesso to.
I use an acrylic block for this – paint it with white gesso, turn it over and
lay on the card. I love this effect.
I had lots of my
backgrounds left – so made a couple of other cards too. The swirls are from Tracy
Scott’s stamp sets – ETS01 and ETS08. A little bit of doodling with black and
white paint or gel pens adds some highlights where needed. The birthday
greeting is from my stash.
See you next week!
Nikki
