Scrap Fx Australia #2 March

-

 Hello everyone,

and welcome to my second blog post for the company Scrap Fx Australia.

My favorite month of the year is almost over, that is a little bit sad :(

But with the next month there comes the first real spring sign

and that puts a smile in my face.

But anyway..

I have for you an abstract mixed media scrapbook page on the new paper from 13arts

combinated with the beautiful products of ScrapFx.

Exception.


A closer look to my page.




My photo image is from the 2021 Vogue Netherland
Which I  altered a little bit with  Distress Glaze embossing powder and Distress Crayon.



My second inspiration is a page in my fabric/facepainting altered book.
Years ago I started this altered book,after looking a tutorial from LorriMarie Jenkins.
She is an USA mixed media artist.
All my acrylic face paintings in this book are from my vacation in Australia.
I really love to paint in my vacations.


A closer look to the fabric/chipboard page.
I started my page with adding Archival ink directly to the page.
I dry each Archival ink layer.
My last layer was adding Distress Oxide to the stonework stencil from ScrapFx.
After that I started layering my fabric,collage-paper, chipboard and transparency layer.




I used from ScrapFx:

Live Your Life

 Good morning everyone, how are you today? The last few days, we had wonderful sunny days here in The Netherlands. Perfect for a summer scrapbook layout in mixed media style, right? I played along with Tim Holtz snapshot photos, a couple on a beach. The yellow color on my page stands for the sun and the blue watercolor for the sea. Don`t we all want to live our lives as we please? Since I no longer have obligations as a designer in design teams. I am free for my other hobbies, so as gardening, reading and fitness. I am busy converting my garden entirely to a permakultur garden following the method of Ruth Stout. After three years of a warm and dry summers I can see and feel the climat change in our garden. After that, I would also like to grow more of our own vegetables,  new plant beds had to be created. What a beautiful way to spent the time outside. But anyway there is also the new book of the "Seven Sisters" waiting of me to read it. LIVE YOUR LIFE... I created this layou

 Hello everyone, and welcome to my second Guest Design project for the company  Shimmerz Paints . Once again I played along with the May release called "Flower Power Honey" This is such a beautiful Kit in soft pastel, brown and orange colors. The Kit includes also Vibez, Blingz and Shimmerz- fussy cutting paper, and decoration elements. If you like the vibe of the seventies this is your paper collection. Pauls Class... A closer look to my background work: For my background I used two of the beautiful paper sheets. But I shortened 2 cm from the top paper sheet,  so that the bottom paper sheet looks out at the edges. This is such a beautiful frame as well. Next I used two layers of clear Gesso on the front side and one layer of clear Gesso on the back side from my background paper. After my Gesso was dry, I added gel medium to a stencil and then I sprinkled randomly embossing glaze on the wet gel medium. After my embossing glaze was heat embossed I played along with the Shimmer
