Creative Warriors Inspiration # 38

I created a double journal page layout using the Wisdom Art Image pack  by Annette Gearside for my first February Inspiration Post for Michelle's Creative Warriors.


I used one of Michelle's coloured images and fussy cut some extra flowers to add around her neck and head. 
I used a stencil from Bee Arty onto tissue paper and adhered to my pages leaving a strip on the right hand side page. In this gap, I used the Round About stencil designed by Michelle Grant for Bee Arty and have stencilled with Distress Oxide Inks straight onto my page to take away the blankness, blending it out into the tissue paper.

My owl and flowers are from Annette's pack. I fussy cut these and adhered onto page and then coloured using some of my Colour Blast mica powders.
Until next time, keep chasing white unicorns!

Creative Warriors Inspiration # 23

Can you believe we are almost halfway through the year already!
It really is going by too quickly. With that said, here is my next project to inspire you. 
 

I started with putting a layer of black gesso on my page.
I adhered my background, which is from Daydream Wallpapers by Karen Yates.
Then I adhered this month's Challenge Image Miss Delightful by Annette Gearside an top before colouring her with my Inktense Water Pencils and Black Paint pen for the dots. 
I am not sure but I may have had a bit too much medium under that right check as I ended up with a huge coloured splotch there. Nevermind, I just added some colouring around her face to give her a grungy bothered look.
I used a Art By Marlene Sticker Quote to finish it off.

Well, I hope I have inspired you, and you still have time to get your challenge in to win a discount voucher to add to your collection of Michelle and Teams wonderful designs.

Don't forget to share with us any of your projects over on the Michelle's Creative Warriors Facebook group, we'd love to see them.

Until next time, keep chasing white unicorns!

Creative Warriors Inspiration # 21

My next Creative Warriors Art Journal page.


I used this gorgeous cat and butterfly from Annette Gearside's Flutterflies Art pack printed on tissue paper.
Art By Marlene paints for my background and some Tim Holtz Distress Crayons on the wings.
A couple of music sheets with distress ink on them and cut into circles, along with a  bit of doodling for edges and stamping with a Unity Stamps stamp to give some extra depth.
Gold paint pen to make the wings stand out from the page.
My sayings are from Karen Yates Little Words Bits # 2

Creative Warriors Inspiration # 14

Time for my next project to inspire you, which is using the New Release Challenge Pack for February called Modern Misses by Annette Gearside. 
 

I used leftover ink and created my rainbow type layout.
I printed my modern miss on copy paper and fussy cut and adhered to my page.
I printed the flowers on rice paper and again fussy cut and adhered to page.
I used my Neo II Crayons and a water brush and coloured my images.
Lastly I added a saying from one of my many Uniquely Creative Cut-a-parts.

So much fun! 

Well, I hope I have inspired you to try this month's Challenge and join us over on the Michelle's Creative Warriors Facebook group, we'd love to see your projects.

Until next time, keep chasing white unicorns!

Creative Warriors Inspiration #2

Time for my next project to inspire you, which is a Mash Up of using a girl from Gracie Grant's Accept Pack and my Owl from Annette Gearside's Wisdom Pack.
 

I started by using one of the mop up pages in my art journal to get me going as it already had red and black acrylic paints on it.
I added some music sheet strips for a bit of collage and some white gesso to blend it all together.
I then added some pink/peach acrylic paint to soften it a little.
At this stage, I coloured my owl with my pencils and fussy cut her out along with my girl.
Now they are cut, I place them on page to see where I would like them and where I needed to add some stenciling. I used my Dark Hearts stencil with black acrylic paint first, and then That Way stencil to add the dots as well. 
Again, placing my owl and girl down, I decided I needed something else, so grabbed my script stamp and stamped that in a few places. I used the Tyre marks from Making Tracks stamp set to mainly ground my girl and stamped in a few other spots as well.
Now I have it pretty much how I wanted it, so I adhered my Owl and girl on the page.

My wording, I hand wrote in Black on some card and then went over it with white and adhered.

Well, I hope I have inspired you to look at your packs a little but differently.
