Tracy Evans' New Release for AALL & Create

Hello Friends

I was so thrilled to be able to create some projects for Tracy Evans with her latest release of stamps for AALL & Create.  I am continuing this week with another of Tracy's beautiful new stamps,
Wild and Free (#238), to create a journal.

I die cut one of Eileen Hull's Notebook Journals for my base.  The mountboard was given a coat of Gesso to give me a good base for watercolouring.
I coloured the flower with watercolour paint, let it dry and then spritzed the journal lightly and just dribbled paint in sections over the cover, letting them blend and dry naturally.  I mixed in a little Iridescent medium into the paint to give a light shine.
This is a close up of the finished cover, you can see a little of the Iridescent shine.  I coloured a second flower and decoupaged this up on the cover and added an elastic closure.
For the inside I created a small notebook and also a writing block.
For the cover of the writing block, I used a 'tissue' technique that Tracy showed in one of her Hochanda demos last weekend, I was quite pleased with the result!  I painted it with watercolours.
You can find a list of stockists for the whole of the new stamp release HERE, including countries around the world.  Whilst you can purchase direct  AALL & Create advocate the use of your local stockist to purchase the stamps and stencils.

Finally, I am sharing a few of the samples that I made for Tracy's recent shows,
it was lovely to see them on TV!

Thanks so much for your visit, it is much appreciated and I hope to see you
again soon.

Hugs, Anne xxx

  11. wow, Anne! You have been a busy girl! I love your journal with the bold flower atop the shimmery water color background. I'm so curious about the technique you learned using the tissue--looks great! And all of these samples are just gorgeous, perfectly made and diverse. If I had to choose a favorite, I think it would be that thistle on the purple background--love the colors! Sending hugs!

  14. That's a lovely journal, Anne - the bright pop of the yellow flower against the blues and browns is great. Lovely version of Tracy's tissue stamping too - I saw it over at her blog and thought at first she'd been stamping into texture paste - it's a cool effect and looks lovely in blue and brown! Fabulous samples for the show - it's easy to see you've been having lots of fun with the gorgeous new stamps.
