Creating With Susan K Weckesser

Hello Folks! Peggy here, today I would like to show you my card design with Susan K Weckesser Paper and Stamps. I loved coloring this little stamp.

I chose background paper from the Susan K Weckesser Color Burst Collection  and the Live, Love, Create Collection
 I fussy cut flowers from the Live in Color Paper Collection
My sweet girl is from the Love Ya Whole Bunches Stamp Set.. Is she not the cutest!.
I stamped her using Memento Black ink so I could color without my image bleeding into the colors. 

love-ya-whole-bunches

I colored my image with Copic Markers  . I just love this card.. and the details in the stamp images make coloring these images a pleasure. 

I placed all my paper pieces on black cardstock.

eBrushed Paper Tiffany Lamp

Hello! today I would like to show you my Tiffany Lamp. 
Supplies used today are: 
Spectrum Noir Markers
SVG File /Cutting machine
Vellum
Cardstock
Wet/Dry Glue Tape

First I cut out my lamp pieces and vellum pieces so I could color them. I used my lamp pieces as a guide as to where to place my color.  I found I had a vibrant color if I sprayed both sides of the vellum but both options look great. 

 Here are my pieces ready for glueing. As you can see you do not need to be precise. I colored red dots according to the lamp design and smudged it with a yellow spectrum noir marker. Then I sprayed the entire piece with yellow.
 These pieces are a lighter shade of green and yellow lower middles. After each piece was sprayed and colored the way I liked I glued them into place. The larger tabs I used double sided tape and for smaller areas I switched between crystal lacquer and a glue writing pen.
 Next it was time to put the entire top of faux glass together. I used grips to hold them in place.

 Here is my finished product! I hope you like it! .. I just love tiffany lamps.. my fav!






Have a great day Thanks for looking!!

Susan K Weckesser Papers & Stamps Oh My!

Hello fellow crafters! I hope you're having a fantastic day! Today is my first post for the Susan K Weckesser Inc. Design Team and I am in love with her products. I am showing my journal cover that I have been waiting to do until the journal was filled so it would lay flat while I was working on the inside. 


First I covered the edges of my journal with white gesso. Then I cut down my paper to fit inside the white painted lines and taped down my designer paper with double sided tape.  Any edges that were lifting I squeezed in some glue for permanency.

 Next it was time to go to town on the stencils. I used acrylic paints as well as gesso with my stencils.
I painted the words Live In Color with all the colors of the rainbow.  I like to doodle as well so I took my pen and doodled to my heart's content.

I used Stazon Ink to stamp my image several times on different papers and fussy cut them out.

 Below I decided to try something a little different. I recently purchased some shrink film and I used Stazon inks to stamp some images on. I used a heat tool to shrink my pieces and I adhered them to the cover using lacquer medium. You could also use clear glue.
 Below shows the difference in size.
Here it is all put together! I had so much fun just letting the creativity flow without overthinking!
This was so much fun, I love the papers and stamps. The focal house is a fabulous stamp



I hope you enjoyed my journal cover! Head on over to the store and have a look around!
Warmly, 
Peggy
