Scetchbook and a bookmark for Scrap FX


Today I have a couple of projects using a mix of old and new products.
Firstly is this little sketch book that I have made to keep in my bag.  Perfect size for when I need a creative outlet on my meal breaks.
It's some card that has been gelli printed.  I then scored it into 3 sections.  The front and the back and a little flap for in the middle.
The page has been stamped with the Scallop Borders stamps and the Petals and Leaves stamp.  The circles were drawn on using the Circle stencil.
A bit of doodling in black and white onto the elements stamped and drawn on the book.
The title on the cover is from Art Words transparency and has been adhered with matte gel medium.

My next sharre is a bookmark.
This one started with some alcohol inks on yupo.  I tried to match the colours down in a sunset, shadow and grass colour theme.
I traced a circle with the Circle stencil that was the same size as the Tree Shadows.  This was used as a template to cut out the yupo which was then adhered to the back of the Tree Shadows.  I cut these slightly larger to allow a bit of room for the border.
The background has been stamped with some Build a Flower stamps and coloured with Copics.  This was all messy stitched together and some tassels added.

Family layout for Scrap FX

Welcome to my September share.  Today I have a very "Springy" page for you.
This one started on a gel printed background from my stash.
I used the Botanical Stencil small and some gel gloss medium to create a little hub for my focal point.  I heat dried this and then added some water colours.
I've then used 3 different colours of embossing powders and heat embossed the Family Flower large chipboard piece.  I've then done the same to the white Fresh Flowers.
A couple of butterflies from the Butterfly transparency have been added under my photo and I have stamped some Scallop Border stamps to the top and bottom edges.
