Alpha Dictionary Letter F

 
 
 
Hi everyone! How are you all? Today I'm sharing another Journal page over at The Craft Barn. The letter was F but with a twist...the twist was that we had to add a heart somewhere onto the page! So I made a pink ombre background using a brayer and the sprayed some hairspray onto it and sprinkled some glitter onto the page to make it sparkle but it's quite hard to see. Next I used some overlays and put a corner one obviously in the corner and a couple of other ones for a bit of decoration. I die cut a fairy and put her as if she was stood on one of the flower overlays and the made it look like she was holding a hanging heart. I then stamped out the letters to spell out fairies and then instead of stamping out the whole definition I stamped out the words, Small, Supernatural and Magic because I thought it described fairies pretty well. I'm really enjoying these journal pages so far!
 
Thanks for visiting my blog and i will see you soon!

Alpha Dictionary Letter Q!



 
Hi everyone! How are you? Today i'm sharing my second journal page for the Alpha Dictionary challenge over at The Craft Barn. Every fortnight, the craft barn gives us a letter and we're free to choose whatever that letter stands for. The only thing we have to do is add the dictionary definition. This fortnight's letter was Q. As soon as my mum told me, I knew exactly what word i was going to pick! QUOTES! I love quotes! So i was so excited to get started! I chose a quote card from my stash that I really liked and trimmed it down a bit. I started by mixing pink&purple paint with a brayer and added bits of stencilling. I doodled around the edges, stuck the quote card in the middle. I then stamped out the letters to spell out quotes onto a piece of plain paper and cut them out separately. I stuck them onto the page and wrote the dictionary definition. I enjoyed doing this page SO much!

Alpha Dictionary letter B!

 
 
 
Hello everyone!
Today i'm sharing with you a journal page that I made for the Alpha Dictionary challenge over at The Craft Barn! Every fortnight, the Craft Barn gives us a letter and we're free to choose whatever word that letter stands for.  All that they ask is that you add the dictionary definition of the word. You can make anything! An ATC, a journal page, a tag etc. So I decided to make a journal page, the first letter was B so I chose the word Believe and I started with a base of Dylusion spray inks. Once that was dry, I doodled a black and white border around the edge using Posca pens. Then I stamped the word Believe from a Visible Image stamp and then heat embossed it, the die-cut butterfly was embossed the same way. I wrote the dictionary definition using a black Copic fine liner and finished with a sprinkle of gems. I can't wait for the next letters!

best marble effect!  I found this technique from one of my mums craft
