Card .:. using Frank Garcia Capri collection .:. by Prima Marketing

Sometimes I like to take a step out of my comfort zone and today I did it double. Firstly I do not make that many cards, I do not feel like that is my first strength and secondly I do not often create scabby Chic/pretty flower pieces. However, the Capri collection by Frank Garcia for Prima is so beautiful so how could I not give it a try?!.

I have tried to make the beautiful sentiment be the focal point of the card and framing it with lots of pretty things. I like how it turned out for sure.

Right  now we cannot travel to beautiful places around the world due to the Corona virus,, but we still can in our minds.

Ibland gillar jag att ta ett steg utanför min komforten och det har jag gjort dubbelt idag. Att göra kort är inte min starkaste sida och inte heller att skapa Shabby Chic/vackra blomsteralster. Men, med den vackra Capri-kollektionen från Frank Garcia för Prima Marketing var jag ju tvungen att prova.

Jag ville att det vackra citatet skulle vara i fokus för ögat och har ramat in det med de vackraste detaljerna jag kunde hitta. Känns det inte som om jag lyckade ganska bra ?!

Just nu kan vi inte resa till vackra platser runt om i världen på grund av Corona-viruset, men vi kan fortfarande drömma oss bort.

Using Moulds -Rusty and Patina with Finnabair

Here I have made a project on cardboard. It is so easy to cut in any shape you want. Black gesso for the first layer and then rust paste and patina paste to create the grungy look. My decorations are made with moulds from Redesign and Finnabair- Prima.

Här har jag använt kartong som min bas att jobba på. Så enkelt att klippa ut i vilken form man vill. Svart gesso i botten och sedan färg från Rust Paste set och även från Patina setet. Mina dekorationer är gjorda med silkonformar från Redesigm och Finnabair- Prima-

Layered tags using .:. Simple Vintage Garden District by Simple Stories

Do you like layering and mixed media? I do! On these tags I have been working with lots and lots of different layers. Sometimes when I do that I hesitate to cover up a previous layer because I want it all to show but this time I challenged myself. The two tags differ a bit but this is more or less the receipe:

The first layer on the tag is just some color brush strokes. Then I added a few stripes of pattern paper from the Simple Vintage Garden District by Simple Stories using matte gel. Then I added gesso. Next step was stamping. On top of the stamping I used some acrylic paint and a stencil to pick up some of the color. On top of that color through another stencil. Then heavy weight gesso through a third stencil. Then I used a fourth stencil with some distress ink on one tag and distress oxide ink on the other. I added some more gesso with a palette knife. After that I filled a Fine tip Glue Applicator with black gesso mixed with water. I used this to draw/paint the black stripes on the tag. I let the tag dry between all layers. I added some Simple Vintage Garden District decorations and then as a finish I used some organza ribbon and a decorative brad on the top of the tag. So in the end I used 12 different layers and it was so fun!

Gillar du lager på lager och mixed media? Det gör jag! På de här två taggarna har jag arbetet med massor av olika lager. Ibland tycker jag att det är svårt att arbeta med lager på lager eftersom jag tycker att det är synd att dölja de enskilda lagerna. Men den här gången bestämde jag mig för att utmana mig själv att använda massa av olika lager! De två tagsen är lite olika men detta är mer eller mindre receptet:

Först penslade jag på lite färg på vit cardstock. Sen har jag applicerat mönstrat papper från Simple Vintage Garden District by Simple Stories med matt gel. Sen penslade jag på tunt med gesso. Nästa lager består av stämpling. På det har jag använt akrylfärg där jag torkat bort en del av färgen genom en stencil. Med nästa stencil la jag på mer akrylfärg. Jag använde heavy weight gesso genom en tredje stencil. På den fjärde stencilen använde jag distress ink. Sen mer gesso som jag la på med en  palettkniv. Efter det fyllde jag en Fine tip Glue Applicator med svart gesso blandat med vatten och ritade linjer. Jag lät taggen torka emellan de olika lagren. Jag dekorerade med dekorationer från Simple Vintage Garden District-kollektionen. Till slut använde jag organza band och brads på toppen av taggen. Det blev 12 lager till slut och det var så kul!
