Watercolor Card by Tonya Gibbs

 

Hi everyone, today I have a simple little card to share. I decided to create my own background using various Tattered Angels sprays.   I thought it gave an impressionistic effect.  

 

 

 

To create the background I removed the nozzle from the sprays and splattered them all around the page.  Then  I took a paper napkin to dab up the extra. I used a soft lavender colored cardstock as my base to give a nice soft base to the splatters.  

 

I love the effect of the watercolor background. The Flowers were cut from the Tattered Flower Garland Decorative strip die.  I then painted them all with the Tutti Fruity Glimmer Mist.  This was such a fun card to make.

Recycled Heart Card "love"

Recycled Heart Card

Today I am sharing with you all, my recycled heart card...

With Valentine's right around the corner I am trying to get a head start on the Holiday!

I first took a 61/2 x 5 size card base.

Using a Heidi Swapp Heart Stencil and plaster created the heart 

background textured.

Using my Tattered Angels mists...I used them like water color effect.

Along with Tim Holtz stencil Dot Fade and gesso for even more texture.

I cut a heart out of old cardboard, ripped the top layer off.

Painted some gesso over the heart.

Did the same water coloring on the Petaloo flower...with glimmer mist.

Added a little embellishment cut out 

of Mad Tea Party paper collections by Marion Smith.

This Makes Me Happy - Layout by Tonya Gibbs

Hi everyone, today I wanted to share with you a layout that I created of my newest niece and I.  I finally got to meet her this past weekend, and couldn't wait to add her sweet photo to my album.

 

 

My only photo was a small Instagram photo. To keep from over powering the small photos,  I wanted to keep the design simple, yet girly and elegant.    I reached deep into my stash for a few scraps, and some odd and ends products. 

 

 

Since the label on the right mentions "...moment with you"   I decided to frame a Prima Romance Novel Clock inside a Prima Resin Frame. Then flanked it with soft Prima Roses.  It still needed a little something so I went DEEP into the hoard vault and pulled out a Say It in Pearls spray and framed it around the flower cluster.   I wanted my journaling to blend into the layout, so I wrote it along the boarder with a pink pen from Zig.

 

Sometimes the simplest projects are really the most powerful.  I challenge you this week to make a layout with a small photo, and keep it simple.  Share your samples with me on Artsy Addicts Facebook page.

 

Thanks for stopping in today,
