Mixed media flower card


Hello all

I have a mixed media card to share today.


Start off by mixing Scarlet and Rose Red in a bit of water to make a watercolour ink. Next take a paint brush and paint the first colour on stating from the edge of the card. once the first colour has dried you can then paint over another colour until the first layer is finished.



Next use different texture stamps and stamp around the edges. Use black ink for the first layer and then brown ink on the second layer of stamps. Use the Black Soft Form paste and add a stencil mask to the edges of the card and allow it to set.


Rubb a bit of the Soft Form paste around the card to make it more grungy. Next ink the stem on the flower stamp and stamp it directly onto the white space on the card. Colour theis with Leaf Green Brusho Powder. Then stamp the flower  head and leaves onto white card and colour it carefully using Brusho powders. Cut them out and line the flower head up with the steam and glue it down along with the leaves.
Finish with a sentiment

Without Change Gelli Printed Art Journal


Hi all

I  have been using my Gelli Plate again. I find covering everything in paint very relaxing and i have been using the new Premium  Acrylic Paints by DecoArt. They work really well with the Gelli Plates because they are a nice consistency so they spread well without being to watery. 




I applied Hansa Yellow Medium to one half of the plate and then Cadmium Orange Hue to the other half  with a little Primary Yellow in the middle. I then used a brayer and spread it all out to create an ombre effect. Stick your blank page over the top and give it a little pat, this doesn't have to be perfect.


Next i took an alphabet stencil and placed it on the Gelli Plate before rolling some Quinacridone Gold over the top.It has a lovely rusty red colour so i use this one for distressing things. Peel the stencil off and pat it over the journal page. You can use a brayer to get a sharper print.


Once it is all dry, i took a mini stencil and added some Titanium White to the page with the brayer. I added the texture stamps and some hand written words along the edges of the page.


Next i picked out one of my favourite butterfly stamps from Gummiapan and then applied Paynes Grey to the plate and used the brayer to roll it out. I then stuck the stamp to an acrylic block and pressed it into the paint and then stamped it onto another gelli print i had created earlier. This gives you a distressed stamp effect. I cut out the butterflies and added them to the page with a sentiment.
