Spectember day 30- Final day...

Yeah I made it... I played all 30 days of Spectember and today is the final day and the theme is Over the rainbow.... So as Fairies are my favs I ended this fun month of coloring with the rainbow fairy. This is Fay the fancy Fairy from Oddball Art stamps. I colored her with the Spectrum Noir Illustrator markers TB5-GY3-CG4-TB4-DG3-OR3-PL2-PL3-PL5-CG3-DR2. Triblend markers in Fairskin enhanced with the Colourblend pencils.Background is made with the Spectrum Noir Reinkers BT7-DG3 and TB1 and Crafter's Companion gold foil (the rubbing one not the one for the Foilpress.)

Spectember day 15- Mix it up...

 Well this was a hard one for me as I am not doing much real Mixed Media so I tried my best on this one hahahaha. I made a new Coloring clipboard for myself so I can hold my images better when I am coloring them up. I first colored the clipboard with the Spectrum Noir Harmony Water reactive inkpads: Midnight, Damson Wine, Plum Jam. I used the same colors on a A4 sheet of the white stamping card and colored it all.  On the wood of the clipboard it is much lighter, might be due to the gesso I put on it first. I glued it on the clipboard and then when it was dry I used a clear varnish to protect it. After some drying time I started to stamp onto it. The first one was the Majestic butterfly and sentiment with Spectrum Noir Finesse Alcohol proof inkpad. Then I used some scripture stamps from the Flutterby Collection with the Silver Midas inkpad. Last one I did with the Spectrum Noir Opaque White inkpad.  I colored the Majestic Butterfly with the Spectrum Noir Illustrator markers DP4,3-VB3,2 and the purple Metallic marker from Spectrum Noir. 

----

Nou, dit was een moeilijke voor mij, want ik doe niet veel echte Mixed Media, dus ik heb mijn best gedaan op deze ene hahahaha. Ik heb een nieuw kleuren-klembord voor mezelf gemaakt, zodat ik mijn afbeeldingen beter kan vasthouden als ik ze aan het inkleuren ben. Ik heb eerst het klembord gekleurd met de Spectrum Noir Harmony Water reactieve stempelkussens: Midnight, Damson Wine, Plum Jam. Ik gebruikte dezelfde kleuren op een A4-vel van de witte stempelkaart en kleurde het gehele vel. Op het hout van het klembord is het veel lichter, misschien komt dat door de gesso die ik er eerst op heb gezet. Daarna  lijmde ik het vel op het klembord en toen het droog was, gebruikte ik een heldere vernis om het te beschermen. Na enige droogtijd begon ik erop te stempelen. De eerste stempel die ik gebruikte was de Majestic butterfly en het sentiment met Spectrum Noir Finesse alcoholproof stempelkussen. Daarna gebruikte ik enkele scripture stempels uit de Flutterby-collectie met het Silver Midas-stempelkussen. De laatste heb ik gedaan met het Spectrum Noir Opaque White stempelkussen. Ik heb de Majestic Butterfly gekleurd met de Spectrum Noir Illustrator markers DP4,3-VB3,2 en de paarse Metallic marker van Spectrum Noir.

Ik wil graag meedoen met de volgende challenges....

Spectember day 14- get your bling on...

day 14 who is with me still??? so today it is Get your Bling on.... And I picked the Spectrum Noir Midas Platinum as my bling for today....

Look at how beautiful the Midas ink look when it is just stamped on vellum with a sentiment from the Parisian collection.

I decided to stamp my basecard and I used the Spectrum Noir Harmony Pale fig and Oasis for it combined with the Platinum again. I used the butterflies from the Flutterby collection. First stamped the silhouette butterfly in the Pale fig. Then I used the detailed butterfly stamp and used the Platinum on it. The foliage stamp is from a Crafter's Companion set called Rose buds. First I stamped it with the Oasis and then I stamped again over it this time with the Platinum. Totally love how it looks.

For the main piece on my card I first colored some white stamping card and colored it with the Spectrum Noir Harmony Midnight, Damson Wine and Plum Jam inkpads. Then I used the Crafter's Companion 3D embossingfolder In the garden and did the Letter pressing technique with it. So you ink up the folder and then add your paper to it and then put it thru the Gemini machine. It comes out so pretty.

And this is the total card.
