PaperArtsy Scrapcosy new stamps 'Tag Tea Book'

Hi everyone, Today I’d like to share with you ’Tag Tea Book’. Although we usually use a fixed shop or tea  brand for green tea, but I buy various brands of black tea.

So I decided to create Tea Book and Baked Textures of the theme using a new Beautiful Raquel' stamps and stencils.

And I made the texture of pottery with embossed powder as she had done to Raquel 's fabulous tea cup stamps.

This book used 10 Tags and every tags was distressed with Vintage Photo Oxide.

First I used embossing powder Gold for ESC 09 frame, ESC 16 quote and tea branch and made a front cover, also I used clear powder twice on the quote.

First pages, paste the tea bag who drunk at that time. The background I used grange paste on the stenciled PS106 by Vintage Photo Distress Ink.

Where opened the tea bag page, I layered many leftover and put on the ESC 15 teacup for the focal point. Teacup : I panted Vintage Lace Fresco and stenciled PS106 by Peach Nectar Fresco then I used Esc15 teacup by gold embossing powder. When teacup and tea flower dried I used clear embossing powder twice. Next I stamped Esc15 tea details in the margin by Vintage Photo Ink.

Second pages are almost the same as first.

Used Esc16 tea branch, tea names and PS108 stencil.

The ESC16 teacup and flowers corner embossed by gold powder on the painted Pine Grove and Snow paper, after fussy cut I embossed clear powder twice too.

I embossed Esc16 stamps tea flowers, spoons and words' by Princess gold on the left page. I stenciled PS108 by Grange Paste on the teabag background. Stamps used for facing page : teacup, spoon and butterfly, ESC16, ESC04. 

 Last Pages : Stamps--ESC16, Esc15  Stencil--PS107

The back cover embossed tea branch and crown by gold powder.

Finally I made the ring with fabric piece and some beads.

Raquel's new releases are absolutely beautiful and flexible, I enjoyed making very happy. 

Thank you so much for stopping by, see you soon!!

PaperArtsy Challenge Blog Topic#14 Baked Textures 'Tea time'

Hi friends Today I'd like to share with you Seth's fabulous Baked Textures using Raquel's beautiful new release. on PaperArtsy challenge blog which you can see Here.

I wanted to use his powder which can make grunge techniques since Seth announced this texture. 

previous powder so far is almost matte, I did not use it much for the work of mixed media. 

This powder melts into the surroundings and creates an interesting texture so it is a lot of fun. I have not done a lot of experiments yet, but please enjoy it.

First decided to make a little panel with Raquel's new stamps and stencil. In the background I made pieces using some Baked Textures and collaged it. Photo Frame and Teacup at Focal Point.

What looks black is Rocky Road - Transparent, uneven and very glossy. Dirty Sand on the black dark tape on the right and on the brown paper below it is Ancient Amber. Stamps are ESA09 set.

I made Baked Texture Skins, although his film was smooth, but my film was many holes. (Left of the photo)

The photo frame I used  Raquel PS106 stencil with Ancient Amber. Since it cooled down I used Vintage Beewax once on it. And finally I used Rocky Road at the edge.

Beautiful Raquel tea cup Esc15, I tried to use Baked Textures but I could not make delicate lines and when I used Vintage Beeswax on top it got blurred.---That was my choice wrong.

I used Twilight Fresco on the base and stamped by some gold embossing powder and clear powder.

I was a lot of fun to play with this powder, and Raquel's beautiful Tea Time series has plentiful stamps and stencils that can make a variety of works.

Baked Textureshas a lot of possibilities and it is interesting to devise it, Please everybody try this challenge, I'm looking forward to seeing it!! 

Thank you so much stopping by!!!
