ooooo....inkygeliness on a journal page


I carried on playing with my gelli plate and inks for this week's Stampotique project.  What is great about colouring a page with dye ink pad inks is that you can use a journal with thin pages and they don't need gluing together to make them thicker or gessoing!


This time I brayered some inks onto my gelli plate, then placed a stencil on it and brayered some ink through that before placing my journal on the plate and taking a print.


Stamping onto the gelli plate then taking a print off it makes the stamped image look slightly different (and reversed!)


I turned the gelli plate over so I could see where I was placing my reversed stamped image.....


....then added some more 'shrooms' stamped on text paper, and repeatedly stamped 'each life needs it's own quiet place'.


'Owlseeyou' is enjoying his own quiet place!  I gave the page a bit more 'zing' by adding some colour from my ink pads using a sponge.

Over on the Stampotique blog post I have a question for you!

Happiness is ...


Yesterday was International Happiness Day so I decided to theme this week's projects around happiness.  Stamping and playing with paint AlwAys makes me happy!!


A while ago I made up a collection of cards and tags using scrap background paper from my table and decided to use these for my backgrounds.


After mistakenly using 'stamp n bond' I finally found my detail white embossing powder to lift the dark background.  I've not heat embossed anything for years!!  The heart has glossy accents on to add shine to the card.  There's another happiness themed project over on the Stampotique Designers' blog today.  Thanks for coming by, that makes me happy too!!!
