Hi there, its Riet here with a new tutorial.

Door and window set.

Versafine onyx black

Distressink

Broken china

Scattered straw

Spiced Marmelade

waterbased markers in the same colors.

thick black marker

15cm x 21 cm watercolor paper.

Start by stamping the three collage stamps in black.

Mask them off and continue filling the empty spaces with the other stamps.

We color the background with water and the distress ink.

We fill in the empty spaces further with the smallest script stamp from the Pieces of Calligraphy.

We do this with Distress Ink Broken China.

For the dictionary stamps, take a piece of paper and color it with the distress ink.

Stamp the dictionary stamps with versafine black onto the paper

 

Color the stamps with the markers.

Cut the words to size and trace the edges with a black marker.

Matt the card with black.

And then the card is finished; it also makes a nice Art Journal page.

I invite you to join the challenge.

There is a prize to be won.

Are you kidding me? : Two baby flower faces

Welcome back to Lost Coast Portal to Creativity where Lost Coast Designs and Carmen's Veranda collide to bring you twice the inspiration and double the fun!

Hi lovely people! Today I would like to show you a small card with two baby faces. Last week I was trying out marbling paint together with our oldest granddaughter Lorèn, we had so much fun! Sometimes we had to clean the water with a piece of paper and this background is one of that cleaning scraps. A happy accident!

 

I stamped the faces and the texts on the card and  I finished the it with white gel pen, colour pencils and charcoal. 

Stamps used: 3 Flying Flower Girl faces,   ATC misc. 6 set, Music border, 

HERE you find everything about this challenge Are you kidding me. Give it a try, why not!? 😀

Hope to see you next time!

Winter blues: Merry Christmas!

Welcome back to Lost Coast Portal to Creativity where Lost Coast Designs and Carmen's Veranda collide to bring you twice the inspiration and double the fun!

I think blue is the perfect color for Winter/Christmas! And so is our Winter Blues challenge! I made this card onto a glossy card, I started with an alcohol ink background and using black StazOn ink,  I stamped Lycaonia, the text (party words) and I stamped the Music border 4 times at the edges. I highlighted  the image here and there using white Color Box ink and a q-tip. I finished with the white, yellow and blue gel pen for some accents.

Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and a happy creative and healthy 2021!!
