Rustic Inspirational Tags

Good morning too you all.  I am beyond excited to share this project with you that I made for Gypsy Soul laser Cuts. 

I was playing around with some very special paints and a very chemically active spray. I loved the look and threw together some tags.

As I didn't get to take photos of my process believe me I will have one coming up in the near future on how I got my barb wire to look so rusty and my stars to have this amazing patina look. 

Now both tags got the same background treatment of a stencil I used with heavy gesso and some spray. While that dried I painted the birdcages. 

Here you can see and up close look at the star and birdcage. 

Look at how rusty the barded wire looks!!

The second tag I used a different bird cage but replicated the other tag. 

The birdcages also got tiny pieces of cardboard stuck underneath so they had dimension. Then I finished the tags off some with some trim and a Tim Holtz Chit Chat sticker.

Have I Gone Mad?

Hello chipboard lovers. I have an art journal spread to share that I created for Gypsy Soul Laser Cuts. I decided to take a break from Halloween creations.

I created an art journal piece with some Alice in Wonderland pieces. I really didn't know what I wanted to do but I seriously wanted to use these pieces. 

*Gypsy Soul Laser Cuts provided me with some product to create this project. This post also contains affiliate links. The opinions I share are solely my own.*

For the first side of the spread I used gesso, stamping, and sprays. 

For the chipboard piece I painted it black then used a Prima rub-on and foil rub on to add the design to my Mad Hatter.

The second page I used different colors of sprays. I also used a different rub-on and foil for the Alice piece. 

Last I added some black paint around the sentiment and some shadowing around the chipboard to give some extra pop. 

I hope you have fun with your chipboard pieces and remember to have fun.

Tombstones

Hello to you all. I am here with more Halloween fun that I created for Gypsy Soul Laser Cuts. I really loved creating texture on these pieces.  

*Gypsy Soul Laser Cuts provided me with some product to create this project. This post also contains affiliate links. The opinions I share are solely my own.*

I altered these from the Tombstone Stand Ups Shape Set.

 I started with painting the tombstones black. Then I got this idea for texture because tombstones have texture. So I created this paste and had to spackle it on the tombstones. Then I had to let it dry.

Once it was dry, I dry brushed with chalk paint so you could see the texture. 

Then I went on to personalize the headstones. 

The first one up got a spider wed and spider. The web is just white gesso. The spider got black paint and then some glossy accents so I could add some super fine glitter and rhinestones.

Then I glued some die-cut alpha letters to the headstones. 

Here on this last headstone you can see the texture created from this paste I made. I really had fun with this one. 

Don't forget to get your Halloween chipboard orders in.

Halloween ATC's

Hello to all you out there. I made some ATC's I created for Gyspy Soul Laser Cuts as a little Halloween inspiration.

*Gypsy Soul Laser Cuts provided me with some product to create this project. This post also contains affiliate links. The opinions I share are solely my own.*

I have this pile of gelli prints and got my inspiration from one of them. 

I cut the paper up into ATC size pieces, added some splatters, stamping, and rub-ons. 

The chipboard pieces got a coat of gesso and the pumpkin got colored like a pumpkin. 

These are really fun and great to tape a piece of candy to. You can hand them out to friends, co-workers, or maybe use them as party invites. Have some spooky fun!
