One Year MOODAVERSARY - 7

 

My inspiration today: The shells on the first photo in the third row. I was drawn to the intensity
                                    of the green and the rough looking feel of it. After I stamped my shells
                                    I had no idea what to do next. Looking at the inspiration I saw the shells has
                                    yellow bits. Yellow I found helpful.
                                    Back at the mood board I saw the 5th picture in the 1st row. Ice maybe, I do
                                    know, but that led me to my background. Inked green, smeared gesso over and 
                                    sprinkled desiccated coconut :) to mimic the fluffyness in the picture. 
                                    In the end it looks like the foam of a wave to me.   
                                    Fussy cut the stamped shells and brushed the edges with black and green 
                                    distress inks.
                                    The word is part of the shell stamp set, thought that goes with the sea.

                                     Almost forgot. The left side looked too empty and I thought; why not try  
                                     DeeDee Catron's dot-dots. It was not good on my card. I washed some off, 
                                     re-gesso-ed the green area, re-inked it. THEN it had this nice shades of green.
                                     Using the green watercolour pencil I made a few scribbles around the shells
                                     on the card and gesso
                                     Re stamped my word and that was it.
    

What I used: Card stock
                     Two greens of Distress ink,
                     Black ink
                     Gesso
                     Coconut
                     Cotton
                     Shell and word stamps
                     Black and green watercolor pencil

One Year MOODAVERSARY - 6

 

My inspiration today: Bottom row, first photo on the left
                                   Again I tried to make bubbles.
                                   Again  I failed - miserably.
                                   Therefore my own words to myself;
                                                    if at first unsuccess gain understanding :)

 What I used: Book paper to cover the printed card I used
                      Gesso
                      Watercolour pencils; green, black, brown and red

One Year MOODAVERSARY - 5

 

My inspiration today: Bottom row, first column.
                                    No success at all.
                                    I knew I won't like nor have a great effect with a lot of black on the back
                                    ground, my blue circles looked like what is is; big fat blobs of blue
                                    Still I trudge on, added the hole re-enforces dabbed a bit of pink on it and 
                                    got it all melted up instead of dried.
                                    Oh well, a fail is also trying, and that is why I am adding this one too.

 What I used: a used baby wipe on the card stock, (yellow and pink from a previous dab) a stencil I   
                      made using a punch, blue distress ink, pink fabric paint.       

One Year MOODAVERSARY - 4

 

My inspiration today: Second row, third from the left.
                                   Tried to mimic the image.
                                    It looked too stripey and dark and dull.
                                    My solution was to add the rest. From there my word.

What I used: White acrylic mixed with liquid paint, red, yellow and blue
                      Gel medium to stick the printed page,
                      Part of a feather
                      Buttons, butterfly bling, card stock stuck down with glue
