Club Scrap Artist Team Challenge: Bouquet

Hello!

Here we are with anothe Club Scrap Artist Team challenge.

This month all of us received a sheet of unmounted rubber stamps

to play with:

The 2016 Reatreat stamps called Bouquet

and you find them here.

The start of the blog hop is on the

Club Scrap Blog

or did you come here from Pam's Blog

and enjoyed seeing her projects. 

A few weeks ago I played in a color challenge. As I am not

very good in coloring, I came across this fun and easy technique

that I want to share with you. Works great with these beautiful

flower stamps. One can have never enough flower cards, for

they are great for any occasion.

1. Start with coloring your panel with a color ink.

I used Club Scrap lagoon.

2. Pick a stamp and start covering your panel fully

with this stamp. Do not stamp full inkted, but stamp

it off on a piece of paper befor you stamp on the panel.

3. A second time use the stamp fully inkted on the panel.

Cover all of the panel.

4. Dry the panel after stamping, maybe use a emboss budy.

Now you stamp the flower with versamark and emboss

the flower with white embossing powder. Stamp as

many flowers as you want. I stamped a horizontal line of flowers.

5. Now the flower is colored with a blue aquarel pencil.

Color heavy around the lines and next take a waterbrush

to fully color the flower.

6.  Stamp the flower on a piece of post-it and

cut it out with scissors.

7. Cover the embossed and colored flower with the cut

out post-it note. 

8. Take a flower stamp with a stem and with black

ink you stamp this over the flower.

9. After stamping it looks like this. Remove

the post-it note and put it on the next flower and repeat.

10. And this is how it looks after all the flowers have

a stem. Now it is time to finish of the card.

Here a version in red (fuchsia ink) and red pencil.

And a version in sandstone ink and yellow pencil.

Every month with the new Club Scrap box

one finds an online magazine to download

with wonderful new inspiration 

on what to do with the newly received box.

As you all know I am a technique Junkie, so sometimes

I send in an idea for a technique to Tricia Morris

owner of Club Scrap. She liked it so much and

made it into an article in the Scrap Rap magazine.

You see the printed page below.

So for techniquie of the month at the Club Scrap

forum for September, I thought it would be

fun to see what others would make of this technique:

"Acryl Paint Background"

A fun technique for cards, art journaling and scrapbooking.

This is what you need:

acrylic paint: white and colors

paper, white and black

brush, water, scissor

Club Scrap bookbinding glue

masking paper

you can use a stencil

fashion magazine

spray paint, like glimmer mist

white ink pad

stamps

white and black marker

(tip: for white these white correction pens

work wonderfully!)

1.  Start with white and a color of
 acrylic paint.

Color all of the page.

2.    While the paint is drying, 

find a magazine and cut out a picture

You can also use your own photo’s. 

3.    Glue the magazine cut out 

on black paper and cut out together.

4. Take a white inkpad and stamps 
to cover the cut out shape 
on the black paper side.

    You can use words 
or abstract stamps.

5. Take the masking tape to cut out stars
or cicles or flowers etc.

Stick all the stars (or forms you cut out 

from the masking paper) on the dried

    painted background and find a matching spray ink

 (a little darker).

6. Spray on your paper in a pizzabox

7. Take the stars off the background 

and glue your cut out form to

the painted background. 

I did this with bookbinding glue 
and even added a layer on top 
for varnish effect.

8. Finished artwork: use white and black crayon

 and white and black marker to doodle

and stamp some wordart and other 

decorations to finish your artwork.

This is the page in the Club Scrap magazine.

 If you click on the picture

you can see a larger version. 

Hope you give it a try 

and share your artwork in the Club Scrap forum
