Merry Christmas

Some quick, very last minute Christmas cards lifted from Shari Carroll for Simon Says Stamp!  The sentiment is embossed with white powder and the pine bough strip is covered with distress glitter.

Santa Says You Were Naughty - Unity Planner Journal

I'm on a roll!  A 2nd page for December in my Unity Planner Journal and I love how this one turned  out!!

More washi tape and a checkered border :). I'm loving the challenge of decorating the pages.

Art Journey - Mixed Media Page

Hello!!  Yes, it's been a long time!!  So although the date for this post is December 2017, I'm actually editing and posting it in March 2020 (during the COVID 19 isolation).  It seems as good a time as any to try and get some updated posts on my blog :).

This was a project I did, using a tutorial from Tiffany Solorio.  She has pretty much inspired me to try all the things with Finnabair and like products. The tutorial for this page is here in case you want to give it a try!

This was a lot of fun, and I was able to substitute products I had in my stash.  I think my favourite part of this was using different gels, pastes and mediums to create the texture in the background.

Adding texture paste through a stencil on a gessoed background.

Adding some transparent 3D gel and some crackle texture paste various areas.

I didn't have any Lindy's Gang sprays yet so I used some prima mica powders and a Heidi Swapp spray I had on hand.

The finished page - you can't tell but it is really shimmery!!  I love the stamped sentiment :)

Thanks for looking!

Merry and Bright - Unity Planner Journal

A December page for my Unity Planner Journal - coloured with copics and a simple border.  You can't see it, but there is some Wink of Stella on the poinsettias.
