Oh happy day - A layout with Karine

Hi,

I'm up today with a layout made with my new favorites products: Inklingz and Creameez. I first applied a thin layer of gesso on a portion of my background paper. Then, I applied
Inklingz in Gosh Garnet and in Beets Me along with Creameez in Get Glowing. I applied the color with a paint brush and while it was still wet, I used a plastic packaging and patted it over the color to spread it. Next, I loaded my brush with paint to make drops of colors on my layout. All that was left was embellishing with Prima flowers and wire thread, and a Creative Embellishments chipboard.

I just love that shimmer!

A small canevas with Karine

Karine here today to share with you a quick project done with my new Creameez! I just love this stuff! I wanted to create a small canevas to go in my future new craft room. It came out so quickly that I think I will make two more to create a triptych. Here it is.

The starting point of the canevas was this light (a car light, I was told...). Next, I found that metal ornament to put just underneath. After a coat of gesso, I layered two Creameez colors: Power to the Purple and Ride the Tide.

I used some modeling paste and a stencil to create the paper under my metal ornament. When dry, I used Berry Hot, My Clementine, Ride the Tide and Get Glowing to add color.

After that, I was pretty aware of the final look it will have, so I was able to decide what to do with the background. I used a stencil and some modeling paste.  I glued two metal ornaments and gave a light coat of gesso. Next, I applied the colors: Green Acres, Ride the Tide, Get Glowing, My Clementine and Berry Hot. I also did some splaches of color with my brush loaded with paint in the same colors. A few dots of black Ink, and voila!
