Messy Magical Creativity by Tracey B

 Happy New Year!

 I hope everyone has a fabulous creative year.

I've been inspired by this month's fantastic mood affirmation and created this using lots of goodies from the Aliferous Foundations pack.

I started by tearing the Design paper & taping that down.   I then sponged on some Dina Wakley paints (Aloe & Olive) through a couple of TCW stencils (Petal Splash & and Flourish Tile).

I then spritzed the dirty stencils and pressed them onto a small piece of Design Base paper as the start of my tag.

I then used Art Anthology Sorbet dimensional paint (Leaf) and scraped through the Petal Splash stencil with a palette knife.

Love these paints - they have a really lovely shine and shimmer. (And they're on sale!) 

I used a compass and pencil to draw a half circle for the placement of my title (although a dinner plate would work just as well) which I carefully rubbed out once my title was down.

I fussy cut the butterfly from the Design paper and die cut a couple more from the Base paper.

I used a little of the washi tape, a stamp from the stamp collection, a reinforcement, lace from my stash (which was a perfect match to the lace frame on the paper - happy accident!) and my clunky typewiter to finish off my tag.

A little stamping using a script stamp and Kaisercraft permanent black ink and some more reinforcements finished off the page.

On my bucket list by Tracey B

 Hi everyone

here's a follow on from last week using similar photos as I'm working on an album for Dominic 

This came together really quickly as I used a waste-not page and added some Distress Oxide (Mermaid Lagoon) using the packaging kiss technique to bring in the aqua as a nod to this month's mood sketch. 

other products I've used include

WRMK patterned paper (Crush - Best Friends)

Heidi Swapp fabric bow

49 & Market Spectrum Sherbet chipboard

Vicki Boutin Wildflower & Honey chipboard

Tis the Season by Tracey B

 Hi everyone

Although my go to base is white card stock I couldn't go past this sweet Pink Paislee Citrus Bliss Bloom  for this layout based on this month's mood board.

Love the addition of aqua to the traditional Christmas colours.

I added some impasto paste through a circle-ish large floral stencil and when dry drew around the shapes with a couple of stabilo pencils and then added water with my water brush.   I added a bit more colour with Prima water color Confections.

I matted my photo with WRMK patterned paper Crush (Best Friends & Twittered pated)

I used the elastic from a Jane Davenport charm set (couldn't find the charm!).   Initially I braided it but didn't like it so unpulled it and stapled it on in a rough circle using my longarm stapler.

I added some Heidi Swapp chipboard and some Kaisercraft Pocket stickers.

Hop you enjoy this moodsketch and get lots of time to play.

cheers
