Hello Friends and a huge welcome to my new followers.
Today I am sharing a project made with one of the newest stamps in the AALL & Create range (you can see the whole range HERE).
I was not sure at first how to showcase this beautiful stamp, I wanted to bring out all the elements in the stamp so I went for bold colours and then mounted it simply onto a 5" x 7" canvas base.
I didn't think the background was bold enough so I added more of the blue paint (Paper Artsy - Glass Blue Translucent Paint) and then decided that the dark background mat was too dark.
I kept adding paint until I was happy.
I placed the coloured (and dried) tissue onto a white canvas base, this really showed up the beautiful blue colour. I added a small amount of stencilling to the bottom left and top right to balance the project.
For the calendar element I used a purchased 2019 calendar and for my 2019, on the cover, I traced the numbers from AALL & Create Stencil #30, cut them out, painted them and then triple embossed them before adding them to the calendar.
This beautiful stamp #141 is featured on Hochanda TV today (13 December) by Autour de Mwa from AALL & Create. If you didn't catch the live shows you can always watch them on Rewind at www.Hochanda.com
I am pleased to have a calendar to add to my craft room wall. If you would like to see the whole range of stamps and stencils by AALL & Create, they are HERE and you will find worldwide stockists.
As always, thanks so much for your visit, I really do appreciate it.
Hugs, Anne xx

Wow - amazing colouring on this stunningly intricate stamp. Love the effect of the colouring from the back - makes it somehow even more vivid. A great showcase for this new release. She'll make you happy every day in 2019.

ReplyDeleteOh Anne this is fabulous, it's not an easy task to paint onto tissue but you've mastered it magnificently. What a fabulous idea to turn it into a calendar. It's the first year in many that I have not acquired any of those little calendars.. it's a pre-school habit I can not seem to shift!!
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing this super creation you've showcased those stamps with perfection and flair.
Hugs for a happy weekend Tracey xx
Your calendar is beautiful Anne, adding more layers of paint on the back of the stamped design has resulted in a stunning finish to the design. Have a wonderful weekend xxx
ReplyDeleteLovely Anne, I am colouring her right now having just finished the big one with the map on. Mine is not as vivid as yours so I might have to tweak it as I love your bright colours.
