Creative Team Boys Cards

Creative Team Boys Cards

By Creative Team member Linda Drynan

You Nailed It! 

Supplies:

Avery Elle “Stoked” stamp set AE1606 and matching die set
 
 

Instructions:

On your non stick Teflon sheet, apply a little vintage photo distress oxide ink and lightly spritz with water.  Dab a piece of white smooth card stock measuring 6 x 4 inches (15 x 10 cm) into the ink randomly. Clean your sheet and dry card stock with heat gun.  Then repeat this process with each of the following colours - aged mahogany, broken china, fossilised amber, wild honey.
 
 
Once you are happy with your coverage, dry card well.  Trim the card to measure 3 ¾ x 5 1/2 inches (9.5 x 13.5 cm) keeping the longer piece to use later!!  Then, using a finger dauber, edge the card with Distress ink pad vintage photo.  With the stencil included in the Dylusions brick work stamp, and the finger dauber, apply some vintage photo through the stencil to give random brink wall markings on the card.  With the large star stamp in the Avery Elle Skatebord stamp set, and using the clear VersaMark stamp pad, stamp and emboss with the Verdigris Opaque embossing powder from Stampendous.
Matt this piece onto a piece of black card stock slightly bigger than original piece. Then adhere to the front of a piece of folded A5 smooth white card stock.
Cut a piece of black card stock ¾ x 5 ½ inches (2 x 14 cm), attach the piece you cut from the original starting piece of distress background and trim to length. Then cut a piece of blue card stock ¼ x 5 ½ inches (1/2 x 13.5 cm) and matt again on top as shown in picture.
 
 
Using jet black Archival stamp pad, stamp out the skateboarder and words from the Avery Elle stamp set. Colour the image using ink from the distress oxide stamp pads as this ties the colours all together.  Apply a small amount of each oxide pad to your Teflon sheet.  Using an your water brush, pick up the colour and paint the image.  Candied apple was used for the skateboard. Cut out skateboarder with matching die and foam mount to card.  Trim words to appropriate size and mount onto blue card stock then attach using foam mount.

Creative Team Butterfly Greetings Card

Creative Team Butterfly Greetings Card

By Creative Team member - Linda Drynan



Supplies:


Small pieces of green coloured card stock (three different greens for leaves)
Small 2mm adhesive bling

 

Instructions:

 
Cut piece of white card stock 4 by 5 7/10 inches (10 cm x 14.5 cm)

With your sponge applicator, randomly apply the 3 distress oxide colours over the card.  I always start with my lightest colour eg spiced marmalade and progress to the darkest. Cover the entire piece of card.

Then take another piece of white card stock 3 9/10 by 5 ½ inches (9.7 cm by 13.7 cm) and die cut the filigree butterflies in the upper left position and bottom right area retaining the die cut butterflies.

Fold your green card base in half and attach the dioxide coloured piece on top.  Then take the die cut piece of white card stock and attach on top.  Apply glue just to the abdomen of the die cut detail butterflies and replace in the space from whence they came.  Die cut 3 pieces of the swirl part of the Crafts 4U 10152 butterfly swirl die in the three variations of green card stock.  Trim just before the butterfly and attach to the card.  Add some 2 mm crystal bling to the tips of the antennae of the butterflies and a couple of groupings of three around the card.   Finally, glue the wooden Happy Birthday greeting on to some of the dark green card stock, trim and attach to the card.

Creative Team - Flying High Mixed Media Project

By Creative Team Member - Linda Drynan


Supplies:


Pre primed board, canvas, thick cardstock, art journal etc  (I used a 6 inch square MDF panel)



Pages from an old book

Black texture paste (or white with a bit of black gesso added works!)


Needle and black thread






Baby wipes


Glue stick

Paper towel

 

Instructions:


 
Tear some strips from the book pages and adhere to the board.  Using the sponge applicator apply gathered twigs, worn lipstick and antique linen randomly over the board. Spritz water onto finger tips and flick onto board and dab off with paper towel.  Draw a couple of circles and a heart using your choice of distress crayons and smear with baby wipe.  Then stamp the shapes over the top of the crayon drawings.  Using Vintage photo, go around the outside of the panel to add some depth and contrast.  Select the person you want use and stencil them in the corner with the texture paste.  Let dry!!  Layer a couple of pieces of the book pages and die cut the full heart from the die set. Giving you lots of cut heart shapes!

Using a paper piercer, put holes through the middle of multiple layers of the paper hearts. Then thread the needle with double thread and stitch the hearts leaving long threads to show and to reach to your stencilled person. Stick hearts onto board and glue threads to a hand on your person.
