Week 2 of Frightful Friday! 3 more art cards from the sewing drawer collection

 

Welcome back to Frightful Friday!  Today I'm sharing 3 cards where I have combined my Halloween Tim Holtz Idea-ology with some of my favorite Etsy Digital Creator products!  I made these a year and half ago so couldn't source all the little pieces but will list as many as I can.  

I LOVE when things peek from behind other things.  I created these 3 cards different heights as you can see in the first photo so I could stagger the clusters at the top. I went back and forth moving things around and would restack them to see how it would look with all 3 of them lined up.  I love clustering, it's like a little puzzle to solve!

Hope you are inspired to start a little card collection of your own.  See ya next week for the next Frightful Friday!

Halloween Art Card Project !! 👻🎃

 

Welcome to Frightful Friday!

Where I will be sharing art cards I designed for a sewing drawer and maybe some other Halloween projects as well.

I’ll share close up photos over on the blog, if you find that more helpful . The card sizes are 3.5” x 6.25”.

I used a lot of the Tim Holtz Halloween paper items and embellishments from the Idea-ology Collection through out but combined them with some of my favorite digital printables from Etsy, metal charms, die cuts, trim, paper clay mold embellishments as well. Quick disclaimer, because I’m a digital artist I don’t hesitate to resize things in Photoshop Elements to fit my projects, so keep that in mind. I will post as many of the supply sources as I can in the description and over on the blog.

Today we are going to take a closer look at the first card.

It was inspired by Juliana Michaels and Luise Heinzl’s “Fluffy Grunge Halloween Journal Cover” from 2023.

Supplies :

Tim Holtz Idea-ology Collection - girl / wings, stone structure/doorway, door, witch, & prescription.

Stamper’s Anonymous - “Tidbits” stamp set - "Item No. 1"

Itkupilli Imaginarium - (PNG Collage Sheets you can crop and resize) – Owl & skull with wings at the top of the archway – “Vintage Owls” & “Cemetary” collage sheets I digitally created the skull stack using PNG images from "Anatomy Bundle" PinkMonarchPrintables – Etsy - Super Simple 2 – Halloween series “terror” & “No 377” labels CarolinesCraftTree – Etsy - “All Hallows’ Eve” label – Wood bat and skulls – unable to source.

Art Journaling with Maremi Small Art Products

 

Hello art friends!  Happy Saturday.  I hope you found some time to get some me time and crafting in this week.  I had fun this week creating this layout using products designed by Marta Laproska of Maremi Small Art.  Last fall she released her own line of decorative papers and added more to her stamp and stencil lines.

I designed today's layout using images from Marta's Antiquario Rice Paper sets 2 & 4.

I also used her Broken Mandala stencil and Text stamp set.

I hope your inspired and if you enjoy the video please give it a thumbs up & leave a quick comment.  It really encourages me to continue making video's and helps grow my channel. Thanks so much for your support!

TIM HOLTZ Paper Doll Art Journal Layout with Video Tutorial for beginners

 Hello art friends!  Today I have sharing another Tim Holtz Paper Doll art journal layout.  I used ephemera, stencils and stamps by Tim Holtz as well.  

If you’ve watched my other paper doll video’s, you know I love what I call “the sitter’s” and finding things for them to sit on.  I paired this sitter with a bird image from one of my favorite stamp companies, RedLead Paperworks.  

And I actually have several Paper dolls already paired up with some of their stamp images sitting on my desk waiting for me to write their story.  

So this layout started with the little girl on the back of the bird.  This little girl is so cute and I imagined her peacefully laying in a field of flowers, listening to the birds sing, & day dreaming.   Her imagination takes her on adventures on the back of a bird. So like my last paper doll video, I decided to write a poem to tell her story.   If you like the poem and font I can send you a copy in a Microsoft Word Document.  Just like the video and leave me a comment and I will share my email.

Check out the video below to see how I used collage, stamped and stenciled tissue paper, gesso and supper heavy gesso to create this dreamy looking background.
