ArtStack share...

Hello, I'm here today to share some ArtStacks creations...

For this page, I've used a combination of a few ArtStacks packs, including the most recent "Wings and Things"...I'm seriously in love with theses wings, they are all so beautiful.

From the 'Anemones & Friends' Pack, I cut a scallop border. Layering a leftover piece of the 'pianola paper' from the 'Homemaker' Pack and a manila tag.which had been stamped with Natalie May stamp. I cut out a figure from Deb Weiers Wonky Background. Adding the red wings from the most recent pack.

Deep inside you there is Magic.

Hello, I hope this finds you well.

I'm here to share more gorgeous designs from ArtStacks Designs products using the new packs...

"All Dressed Up" and "Wings & Things"


I've used a combination of both theses packs, they mix so perfectly. Also with the addition of some pieces from Lisa Oxley's Floral Fetish pack. 

After creating a background with paint and stencils, I layered a tag over the background so the winged boy didn't get completely lost on the background. Layering an leftover stripe from the Floral Fetish pack, as well as a piece of rippable paper from the same pack. I loved this boy, the sheer happiness on his face, so also cut out the toadstool to add a bit of fun and quirkiness. Adding the title, as there is always 'magic' as a child. How gorgeous are these wings, who doesn't love wings, especially as gorgeous as these.
 

Here is a close-up of the winged boy...

August Kraft+ Challenges

 Hello all! How beautiful is this sun, it feels like Spring is in the air...well certainly in Sydney it does and I'm super excited about that! We've had enough rain to last us several months.

I'm sure by now you've seen the challenge over at Kraft+ Challenges...I'm just super behind! A reminder for you...it's all about embracing your handwriting!

I'll confess, like many, I'm not a fan of my handwriting, but I'm well aware of the emotional significance of it. Haha I've kept an old shopping list from my father, because if brings back memories of him on a far more personal level then other items. Unfortunately we don't write as much as we did, with the emergence of technology. So I've hidden my handwriting behind tags that pull out to read.

I've created in the new bigger Dina Wakley Kraft journal, it's so lovely to create with. I love the weight of the paper and the smoothness. It would be fabulous to see more art journalers join us.



I left the manila tags as a set of 3, so you can pull on the top one and read the journaling, which is about why I art journal.


I do hope you'll join us this month. You can pop over HERE to see the amazing creations from the rest of the team. You can also see the amazing creations from our Kraft+ Community Facebook page, they are certainly a talented bunch.

Thanks for stopping by, it's always appreciated.

Happy crafting!
