Skellie Card Front

Skeletons are perfect birthday card fronts for special people; like this one for Betty.

Here are the items I used for my creation:
Lost Coast Design Stamp
Gel Print
Paper
Ink and Paint
Embellishments
Collage Images and Text
Stencil
Using one of my gel prints with a lot of texture...

...I stamped the image with Stazon ink.

Using a stencil I layered Pan Pastels:

Using the fabulous images AlteredPages.com has, I inked a quote and cut it up and trimmed around another transparent image:

Then I layered everything from mediums, paint, inks, paint pens, etc...

Finally finishing off with embellishments and Stickles.

I had so much fun with these great rubber stamps from our Product Partners this month.

Show us what you created!
Ciao for now,

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!
