Video Tutorial: Altered Vintage Phone and new stencils 'Wild and Free'!

 

Driiiin driiin!! I had so much fun altering this vintage phone from the 70'...well this one reminds me of my my childhood, ages and ages ago :-D. Back to present, you can watch how I gave new life to it in my brand new video tutorial: useless to say, you can apply this technique to almost everything in your home, everything! Enjoy :-) 

I love it can't help it!

And here the stencils I used in the video, already available in my Etsy shop:

Video Tutorial: Gel Printing on Jeans and new stencils 'Wild and Free'!

Hello everyone, I am super excited because today I start to showcase my new line of stencil 'Wild and Free'! The last big release for this year (I think...): 6 new designs made especially for gel printing but also perfect for cardmaking and MixedMedia. I started with a minialbum made out of an old jeans (don't fit anymore, aaargh) with tips and tricks about gel printing on it. I hope you enjoy it!

On the left I gel printed on cardstock, on the right straight on jeans:

For the back cover I glued  a large piece of lace used as texture plate for gel printing a while ago

Jane Davenport Galore: Mermaid Mini Album

I am a huge fan of @janedavenport and a while ago I finally got her latest book 'Marvelous Mermaids'. I literally dived in!! The last part, full of gorgeous projects to make, inspired me to make my own mermaid album: I pushed my boundaries, I tried new things and I totally love what I done. A really FIN-tastic book!😊

I used old watercolours, I drew every single mermaid:

I started with gel printed backgrounds and adhered every single elements to them:

This mermaid was so challenging to colour!

Dream Stencil Week 3: MixedMedia Collage Stencil by Laurie

Welcome to the last post of this week dedicated to Dream Stencil: this one is my favourite of this bunch, a MixedMedia collage stencil envisioned by Laurie of @scrapwithLaurie.

I used it to alter a book cover:

I just scraped out black embossing paste through the stencil and highlighted with mica powder:

Here I sponged Distress Oxide over a gel printed background:

I got a lovely velvety look using DecoArt SoSoft fabric acrylic paint on the Gelli plate:

And here we are with another Dream Stencil: this 'Chic Christmas' one is made out of a wonderful collaboration with Mansi of @mansiMakes; even if I am not a huge fan of Christmas stuff I really enjoyed using this one. Here a card with an unusual colour combo, made sponging Archival ink pads:

Here I used one of the Christmas bauble in a different way:
