Hello Friends
My project this week for AALL & Create includes stamps and a stencil by Olga Heldwein - Kings & Queens, Edison Game and the Geometric Grid stencil.
The two stamp sets work together perfectly and I used them to create a card in a colourful collage style. I think the shapes work beautifully together.
I started by painting three colours of watercolour paint onto watercolour cardstock. On a second piece I stamped and partly coloured the image.
I placed the stencil on top of the watercolour paper, holding it in place with my fabulous new Wendy Vecchi Stay-tion and used Distress Inks to add stencilled detail.
I also stamped extra pieces, coloured them and fussy cut them to add to the finished card.
To finish off I added all of the pieces to the watercoloured and stencilled background, raising some of the elements up to add more detail.
You can find details of the stamps and stencils I used here at AALL & Create, where you will find a full list of worldwide stockists.
Thanks so much for your visit, I hope to see you again soon.
Hugs, Anne xxx

Anne, wonderful, love the colours, blue and yellow such spring colours. Love the stamps and how you have used them. Axx
ReplyDeleteEvery time I see one of your AALL and Create pieces, I am in awe of how you pair these wonderful stamps and stencils! This card is a contemporary work of art, and the colors are so unexpected from you. The fussy cut and raised light bulbs add the perfect amount of dimension and interest to that beautiful background. You are such an inspiration to me, Anne!
ReplyDeleteThose shapes absolutely work beautifully together, Annie! My jaw dropped when I saw this one on FB! And those colors together just warm my heart!! Happy Easter! Hugs, Darnell xxoo
ReplyDeleteLove the mix of stamps on this and the pastel background. That stencil goes so well with the industrial collagey feel of this. Gorgeous. Happy Easter Elaine xx
