First
of all I want to say huge Thanks for this chance to be VLVS guest designer for
August. I got a lot of fantastic stamps to use for my projects and as I have
much more at home it was very easy to make a big project and to have any stamp
you need to make it.
This
altered 5 paged project was made as an "inspiration lifting" art
piece. But then I lifted it from myself, so it's totally right. I made a
similar project like 18 months ago for the recent, just out of the print, issue
of Rubber Stamp Madness and I made 4 "Houses
of Everything" for the big article using RSM house template. I think that
we all have a lot of different houses in our life that we fill with things we
love or
dream of
For the original project I picked houses of Dream, Imagination,
Adventure and Knowledge
This
new project, made for VLVS Guest post was made in the similar way, but after
all it's totally different. I made 4 different house shapes, free hand cut; I
used only VLVS stamps, quite a lot of them; I made totally different house this
time and I called them "Houses of Anything". I also picked 3 of 4
houses that are totally
different from the original work: house of Memories,
Hope, and Art and added the Adventure.
All
of the pages were made in a similar way: resist emboss technique with white and
black embossing powders over clear embossing ink. More stamping was made with
black permanent ink. Some of the shapes were stamped with image masks; some
were stamped one over another to make these themed collages. All roofs were
separately stamped and name of the house was added with letter stickers. Over
some pages I added stamped and hand cut images for the 3d textured look. Each
page was colored with inks or water colors and I added just a few chipboards
and stickers to make it more interesting. And if anyone, who knows my work,
wonders why this piece is so "flat" and not over embellished as my
usual work, the answer is simple: I was asked to make a project with VLVS
stamps. They should be a star of this piece and not lots
of embellishments and
my glue gun.
