Weekend play...

Yippee! I actually got to play this weekend...soooo good!

I had recently purchased the new 'Collage Paper Pad' and some stencils from Kaszazz, so was very keen to create with them. I love the Type stencil...I've always been a fan of everything letters or numbers.

All the products you can see here can be purchased from Kaszazz and my Webstore, which you can find HERE. They also have the new Dylusions paint with the flip-top lid...absolutely loving that! So much easier to get a small dollop of paint out than those old jars.

Here are some close-ups of my art journal page...

Thanks for stopping by. Hopefully you too had a crafty weekend.

Happy crafting!

October Kraft+ Challenge - Crazy about Chalk!

 This month over at Kraft Plus Challenge it's all about chalk, with their CRAZY ABOUT CHALK!

I think chalks was one of my very early scrapbooking purchases...too many years to think about ;) While I didn't actually still have those on hand, I did have some in my stash! 

I created a blackboard like background using black gesso, chalking a little bit around it and colouring in some new collage paper from Kaszazz, with the idea of cutting out the flowers for my design. Let's say, I didn't have great success following the instructions on the chalks. Blending with your finger didn't lay down much colour at all, so I ended up pulling the chalks out of the pack and used them as you would a chalk or pencil, blending afterwards with a soft paintbrush to remove excess chalk dust and blending them out. I sprayed with hairspray to try and limit further mess, but decide to not play with the piece much more, so didn't cut the individual flowers out, leaving the piece of paper as it was.

Here is a close-up...
