Hello my dear crafty friends!
Today I have two whole tutorials for one art piece I made with Rubber Dance stamps.
Introduction:
This
project was made with two separate tutorials: one for a frame and one for the
central stamped art piece. I made one tutorial for both parts of the project
with one supply list, but they can be used as two separate ones with separate
supply lists.
Supply
list:
IMAGINE Crafts/Tsukineko: VersaMark Watermark
stamp pad, StazOn inks: Blazing Red, Azure, Mustard; Walnut ink Antiquing
Solution: Terra Cotta, Walnut Ink; Goosebumps Clear Texture Spray; Shimmer
Spritz Sparkle, Jumbo dauber; Fantastix
tool
TCW:
Wood grain stencil
Prima:
Flowers
Flourish
with a bling: Pearls
Other:
white chipboard, ruler, gesso, glossy cardstock
Step by step instructions:
1.
Stamp your Dancing Lady stamp with VersaMark ink over 8*6'' glossy cardstock
and heat emboss with fine black embossing powder.
2. Cut a piece of a cardstock around the stamp to
use as your mask and adhere it to the stamped image with repositionable glue as
shown. Stamp around the mask (and over it) to make the background with two
background stamps (Music and Lace) and add Art and Dream words on the left
bottom of your stamped
piece. Use the same VersaMark heat embossed black
embossing powder technique as we did previously.
3. Take some smaller stamps and fill the gaps
around the image and on the background with the same technique. Add some
stamped dots using the backside of some round brush or another small round
tool, stamping directly into the pad and then heat emboss the dots in the same
way as we did before.
4. Gather three StazOn inks that will be used as
primary inks to make the rainbow look of our stamped and heat embossed image. Use
three Jumbo daubers to spread three inks around the stamped piece and try to
connect them to make this piece rainbow perfection. Those three StazOn colors
work as primary ones and we can make all seven rainbow colors using just those
three.
5. Mist your colored art piece with Shimmer Spritz
Sparkle and when it's dry add some Goosebumps Clear Texture Spray to get some
more interesting texture. Let it dry as we are moving to the Faux Wood frame
tutorial for a few minutes.
6. Make your own brush tool: cut with scissors
each second row inside the old or bad and unused tooth
brush. Apply gesso with
this brush over the A2 piece of thin white cardboard and let it dry.
7. Make wood grain texture with more gesso and a
wood grain stencil over the first gesso layer. Let it dry a lot!
8. Spray some Terra Cotta Antiquing ink over the
dry wood grain texture and add more over the edges and less in the middle. Wipe
the extra ink with baby wipe and add some more layers if you want your "wood"
to be dark.
9.
Make the faux plaque look with adding some dark ink lines with a simple metal
ruler. Use Walnut Antiquing ink and Fantastix tool to make all those lines.
10. You sure don't need a tutorial to make this
frame from your Faux wood piece and to insert the art
piece (really should be
dry now) into the frame. Embellish it as you wish and enjoy your creation!
