KRAFT + CHALLENGE JULY

I completed this layout a few weeks ago but life has got in the way - however in the nick of time I have managed to post it for the Kraft+ challenge  :)

This is a photo of our car now and our car when it was raced in the 1970's.



I started by applying gesso to the areas that I was going to colour.  I then applied Kaisercraft and The Crafters Workshop stencils with texture paste. I have used Dylusions Paint - Lemon Zest, Tattered Angels Glimmer mist - Marigold, Lindy Stamp Gang - Yellow Roses of Texas.  I have also used embossing powder - Lindy Stamp Gang - Scotch Breem Yellow with a Kaisercraft stamp.


I have used a Tim Holtz die cut - gadget gears and coated them with black paint and clear embossing powder.   Onto these I have added Steampunk gears and a Tim Holtz Idea-ology arrow.


I have applied washi tape behind the photos and a kaisercraft clear stamp with the embossing powder and black ink


Thanks for stopping by and until next time Happy Crafting :)

LETS GET SKETCHY DT REVEAL JUNE WEEK 1

This weeks sketch challenge is by Bev Code and a great one for mixed media.  I have scrapped a layout of my friends furbaby "Karma-Jane"



I have used paper from the Prima Collection - Bella Rouge.  Such a beautiful collection.  I have also used the pieces from the Chipboard and More Bella Rouge Collection.

Here are some close ups:


I have cut and placed strips of paper in the background, applied gesso and then some Lindy Stamp Gang Magicals - Grab a Guy Gold, Bells of Ireland and Silks Paint - Love Struck


The beautiful Prima Flowers. Chipboard has been embossed with Lindy Stamp Gang Embossing Powder - Oakleaf Olive.


The background was completely covered with gesso to dull down the brightness but maintain the pattern.
