JULY CHALLENGE IS UP!!

This month's challenge is up on the challenge blog! The theme is Dreamy Nights. Click the link to join us!! There will be a prize!!

Here is what I made for the challenge.

I started with my Gelli Plate (the best tool in the universe!!) to get the black paint on a cardstock tag. I glued some gauze to the tag so it would look like a cloud. Then, I used the collage sheet Once in a Blue Moon to put the full moon on top. To get the glitter and silver on the tag I used a Wink of Stella pen. This is AMAZING!!! I got that wonderful silver AND that lovely glitter on the bottom from the same pen!! Not 2 different sides, one pen, one brush side, all in one!! Here is what Jean Moore, the Altered Pages.com owner, had to say about it:

"They REALLY WORK! Perfect for writing AND adding controlled glitter to your projects. The Nylon brush tip produces thick and thin lines allowing artistic freedom. Archival Quality"

The store has 4 colors to choose from, Gold, Silver, Orange and Purple. They are AWESOME!!

Finally. I added the stamped sentiment about dreams.

I hope you will join us this month!! And don't forget to check the store for all of your artsy needs!!

Handy Tip for Artists, Recyclers and Neat Freaks! I have a follow-up to the Citra-Sol method for creating fabulous background pages and collages. I bought a big bag of navel oranges and realized I had the ingredients to make my own solvent! Simply take a clean glass jar, peel the rind from the oranges and place all the rind/peels, without the pulp (tangerines, oranges, navels) into the jar. Pour enough vinegar over the peels to cover them. Allow the jar to sit for a week or two and VOILA! You have made your own solvent for literally pennies. You will notice the liquid getting a bit thicker than the plain vinegar and it does not smell bad!!! I now have a HUGE jar on the window sill! Be careful and only use this after testing on a safe spot.

Full Circle

Hi all! Becky here today! I have been in a circle-mood lately & have been doing circles on everything! So why not do some circles with some of my Gelli Prints??? Here's a simple little card I made using 4 different circle punches, a black pen & some previously made Gelli prints! Hope you're enjoying Springtime in your area! Cheers!
