My Documented Life - week 43

I'm playing catch up again! The prompt for week 43 was to 'sketch what you see right now'. Well in our house I am surrounded by books.... I didn't attempt to sketch them, but took a sketch-like picture on my phone and then added the book wrapping paper.

Two Tags

Although these tags look quite different, I made them in the same way. For the background I used Distress Spray Stains and stencils. I then stamped the ladies onto card, coloured them and stuck them to the tags. To  them I added the tape, rub-ons and bows. The second is my favourite. What about you?

A bit if fun to cheer those wet days!

A Wonderful Life

For the background of this tag I used spray inks with a stencil and some of Tim Holtz's rub-ons. I stamped the face onto white card and added the body. I coloured it and attached it to the tag. I added the tape at the bottom and the bow to finish it.

The inspiration for this week came from the words 'light' and 'surrender'.

Cards

It is always useful to have some spare cards and so I made these. I used acrylic paint for the background and then stamped on the flowers and random dots. I then added small pieces of Washi tape to give extra detail. I mounted the squares onto brown card to provide some definition against the white background.

I haven't drawn some faces for a while, so thought it was about time I did. I drew it on a background of acrylic paint and some spray ink applied through a stencil.

I think you will be able to guess the theme for week 42 ... stars!

My Documented Life - week 41

The prompt for week 41 was 'polka dots'. I'm not sure whether my dots count as polka dots, but with a jot of creative license ...
