Balancing Bright Colours

 This card was a CASE from the catalogue, and I love how the colours have been used to bring balance to what could have been a very bossy colour scheme. A small touch of bright goes a long way. 

In this case there is plenty of white to balance those joyful pops of neon. The design is simple yet makes a statement. I love this composition.








Have a glorious weekend.
Happy crafting,

Glamorous Healing Hugs Card. Stampin' Up!



This get well card uses the new distINKtive stamps from Stampin' Up!


Here you can see how I created dimension by only adhering part of each flower and leaf, then curling up the edges with my fingers. 

The silver embossing matches the shimmer on the layering piece. This is brushed silver, which is a retired card stock, but we managed to re-create this effect in class using Smokey Slate card stock with a border of wink of stella around the outside.
  


The inside looks really pretty with the silver embossing and stamped background to match the front.
Have a fantastic weekend.

Stamp Art Journal "Helena" Easy Mixed Media Art.



I love art journalling. In this process video, I take you step-by-step through the creation of "Helena" in this double page spread.  It's an opportunity to experiment and play with lots of messy textures, colours and techniques. My favourite part of this piece is the gold paint splattered in the background.
