Summer nights by Zoe

Good morning Lovelies, I'm back with my second post this month for our Summertime/Sunshine theme.

I've gone for a hot summer night theme on my first project and used Alcohol Inks on Yupo paper with Blending solution, once it was dry, which only takes a minute or two, I used an Anti-static bag and stamped using Black Archival inkpad, the stamps sets I've used are - Floral Edges the birds are from Landscape Edges the tree and tiny flowers from Orchard Trees set the flowers I stamped using different colours of Archival inkpads.

I've created a Mixed Media canvas for a second project, using spray inks for the background and subtle stamping in the background using scripts and clocks from Eccentric Edwardian and flitter glu with gilding flakes on Harlequin Fragments I also used the script on my die cut leaves to create more texture and the die cut clock I used Modern Textures. I stamped the beautiful Harlequin Bouquet onto tissue paper and coloured using Distress Crayons and a water brush, once dried I adhered using a collage medium, the butterfly is from Tangled Garden and also water coloured using Distress Crayons and fussy cut, my die cut elements were coloured using spray inks, I used a harlequin stencil and texture paste to create some texture directly onto the canvas and covered with a sparkly copper embossing powder, I left this to dry over night then careful not to disturb the powder once dry I heat embossed it, I added all my elements and stencilled the words and a few more Harlequin bits, some coloured enamel dots and voila!

 

Thank you so much for visiting, I hope you like my projects? have a wonderful day xx Zoe xx
