My Own Kind of Beautiful

Hi there!

Last week while helping my son find some inspiration to make a collage for his school homework and... an idea grew on my head. I had never used magazine cut outs in my art journal before, but... I decided to give it a try and this is what came out.

What you think??


In this spread I used: 
Old book pages, gesso, watercolor effect crayons,  white gel marker,  swirl stamps and black ink pad. 
Magazine cut outs, printed quote, posca pens, medium gel, PITT black markers.

Virginia in Christmas Again

Hi there!

Did I mention before that I had several Virgina's half coloured from when I did this no-line colouring tutorial for Copic Spain?? Well... I do, and I'm planing to use them in this year's Xmas cards. I'm happier with this one than with the one before =)

Hope you like it

Getting Started with Chrismas Cards

Hi there!

This year, the beginning of the school year has been hectic. I haven't done any colouring, crafting or anything. The other night I saw a card from the fantastic Deborah Deruyck at Deborah's Shining Cards, and I thought I'll try to scrap lift her, to see if I get into the mood of Xmas cards. This is what came out. I just need to remember that for some reason I don't like golden foiled paper.

Nuff said =P

Sweet Rose Day

Hi there!

I've had some beautiful Paperbabe Stamps sitting around during the summer for lack of time to play with them. This weekend I finally managed to have some crafty time to make this simple card, and apart from new stamps I also used some new techniques (new to me) that I was looking forward to try (white embossing and distress watercoloring).

Hope you like it =)


In this card: Rose Border - Paperbabe Stamps
Distress inks, washi tape.

Pansies t-shirt

Hi there!

KIds are back on school now, but is still very hot around here. So, I am still on t-shirt mode. After doing one for my mum, I couldn't let the summer finish without making one of this for myself.
If you are interested on this technique, there is a tutorial here.

Hope you like it
