At the Tracy Scott workshop part1

 Hi everybody!! 

Tracy' (Tracy Scott Creative Cafe-Facebook)s work and her products are something I've been really into lately. I've known about her products for a while, as they are available from PaperArtsy, but I've been a bit put off by the intensity of the colours. However, once I saw the Free tutorials I was impressed by her amazing talent and became addicted to the variety of her stamps and stencils. So I decided to take 'Tracy Scott Art Journal Class' workshop class using the first recent products. This is what I made along with that class.

I had a great time in this class, which included a lot of techniques including composition and a great technique to bring out the shapes from her background. I haven't done this review yet, but I will do it soon.

Thank you so much for dropping by,

PaperArtsy blog project Topic #10 My Favourite Colour

 


Hi everyone, it's Etsuko My favorite things with you today, and I'm here to share with you Infinity Flip using fabulous Lynne Perrella  stamps.


This time I tried to make a little old style flip card. The theme is My Favourite Colour, so I made the card in one of my favourite colors, blue and yellow. Detailed instructions on how to make an Infinity card can be found on Nicole Fenimore's site.




The first step is to make the base of the card using PaperArtsy Smoothy (Heavyweight) A4 white card and lightly color it with brayer in Fresco Chalk Acrylic (Snowflake), (Cerulean) and (A Bit Fish).


Cut 4 pieces at 6 x 3 inches. Score both pieces at 1 1/2 and 4 1/ inches.




Apply glue to the bottom layer where the hatch marks indicate. Then align and glue the blue hatch marks on top of the red hatch marks.


Create two color papers as a base by gel-printing, used Fresco Chalk Acrylic (Cerulean), (Deep Sea), (Sargasso), and (Blue Oyster) on the blue paper.


On the other yellow paper. used Fresco Chalk Acrylic (Yellow Submarine), (Lemon Meringue), (Persimmon) and (Cerulean). Then I stamped halfway down the paper with Lynne perrella set 28 (LPC028) and Jofy set 09 (JOFY09) by Ranger Archival ink (Saffron and Forget-Me-Not). I cut both base into the small squares shown below. ★ 2 3/4  x  2 3/4  (2) pieces ★ 5 3/4  x  2 3/4 (3) pieces ★ 2 3/4 x 1 1/4  (8) pieces ★ 1 1/4  x 1 1/4 (8) pieces.
