Book Of Halloween Little Book 3

Hi everyone here is the third and final part to the

BOOK OF  HALLOWEEN.

All supplies can be purchased through the artistic stamper 

please see the list over on the original blog

theartisticstampercreativeteam.blogspot.co.uk

The front covers are gray board put through a machine with the Poison

Texture fade. I coloured this with Prussian Blue, english red oxide, burnt sienna , 

Carbon Black, Gold  and interference gold Deco Art Media Fluid Acrylics Range. 

I didn't put the put any antiquating cream on this as I loved the

effect that the iridescent gold  gave to the cover.

Have I said yet how I really LOVE!!!! this 

range it is just amazing.

I coloured three tags with distress ink in the following colours Old paper, 

Antique Linen, Scattered Straw, Gathered Twigs, Vintage Photo,

 Black Soot and Faded jeans. Once coloured I spritzed lightly

 with water to activate the ink.

I rolled out Fimo clay and stamped the skull from the Tim

Holtz apothecary set and the Happy Halloween.

This is a close up of the inside of the covers. and one and 

a bit of the inside pages.

Once I had baked the clay in the oven I used the the antiquating 

cream in patina green and a touch of white. I highlighted

the peaks with treasure gold.

Using the stamps from the Tim Holtz classic plate I used

the compass stamp and stamped randomly over the

page.

The stamps used on these two pages are off the halloween plate 

and the classic plate the bats are off the blueprint plate.The 

circles are covered in gilding flakes and surrounded 

by small beads.

This page has the compass from the indigo blue plate 

stamped into black Fimo clay then coloured with antiquing cream 

then highlighted with treasure gold.

Bats done the same way with Fimo clay diamante surrounded 

with small beads. Long strip of clay stamped with the

 lost coast bubbles stamp.

Indigo blue stamp die cut cogs and pale blue diamante

bead placed in the centre.

A close up of the same piece.

 

Another close up of the second page.

The Cob web was made by using my hot glue gun and free hand running the 

hot glue into a web. I then highlighted with treasure gold. Then Prussian

 blue Brusho sprinkled lightly then gently spritzed with water.

 The Tomb stone was from the blueprint stamps using

Fimo clay again. I also used Frantage embossing

powders in shabby white.

Another photo of the bat, spider and web 

Inside the back cover without the brusho but brushed with

treasure gold.

Filigree corner coloured with antiquing cream and knocked back

again treasure gold was applied.

The back cover I stamped the writing from the halloween plate

into black Fimo clay and backed in the oven once cooled

I used the antiquating cream in the verdi and then

highlighted with treasure gold.

This is the bat from the blue prints set stamped into the Fimo clay and 

highlighted with treasure gold. I used my bind it all machine to 

compile the book.

That's it folks I hope you enjoyed reading about it as much as

 I enjoyed making it. Thank you for stoping by and please

The Little Spell Book

Hi everyone sorry its been a while getting in a working

routine again and working out how to 

craft alongside. 

This is a little book that hasn't been filled yet, I thought

 I would call it the Little spell book as Halloween 

will soon be upon us.

 

This was made from a children's story book that I altered by peeling 

of the cover and glueing different pieces to it.

Altered Bottle

Hi everyone! 

I hope you are all well I am sorry for the delay in this post

as I have been busy with

my real job!!

For a while I have been toying with the idea to Alter a bottle. 

I decided I would have a go and here is the result.

This was a small bottle that we had so I covered it with gesso.

Once dry I used alcohol ink dabbed on with a felt applicator

I used ranger alcohol inks in denim and terra cotta.

I rolled out black clay and stamped into it.

I cut the clay and wrapped it round the bottle then baked 

it in the oven.

I used a heart cutter and placed that in the middle of the bottle.

I used treasure gold to highlight the clay.

I was really pleased with the results and hope you are to

Please let me know what you think,

Butterflies & Tags

Hi everyone! A big thank you for dropping by to read

my blog. As always with my work this piece has 

the odd clock face I think its an obsession 

now. I started with a black tag to which

 I glue some craft paper.

I then applied grunge paste with a metal spreader or

scraper down the centre of the tag.

 I allowed this to dry.

I think there may be many!! photo's of this one. 

I put grunge paste through the Tim Holtz cargo stencil 

down the left hand side.

To the top right I put grunge paste through the ledger 

stencil from CW

Out of thick black card I used the Tim Holtz pediments 

dies to cut out the topping on the tag.

I used old brass square and round sequins to embellish

 the top centre next to the clock.

The butterflies were stamped onto craft card they are

Tim Holtz stamps from the field notes plate.

They were clear embossed, then coloured

 with blue gelleto's and covered in rock

candy distress stickles.

The cargo numbers and ledger were coloured with geleto's 

and brushed gentle with treasure gold. 

The base of the tag I used the stamps from Tim Holtz 

Apothecary and steam punk plates.

The clock faces are from the artistic stamper 

time and keys plate.

The top was rubbed with treasure gold and a small clock 

was stamped on magnolia card and then a brass ring

used and filled with glossy accents. The ruler 

was stamped onto white card and is an

 indigo blue stamp.

Everything was backed onto craft card and holes were punched 

brads and eyelets used to fix the brass chain. the sides were

distressed with Vintage photo and black soot.

I hope you all enjoyed this post & don't feel

 shy let me know what you think.

Gothic Icons

Hi! hope you are all well and enjoying the weekend. I had these frames in 

my stash so decided to do a project with them.

Firstly I stenciled grunge paste through a stencil.

I did this across all three stencils so the stencil pattern would

flow or line up once they were hung.

Once dry I used fresco paints over the entire frame.

Again once dry treasure gold was used to highlight the

texture.

The images were done using the same technique as my gothic lady

post.

Sorry lots of photo's.

From different angles

I have had a job fitting all three in one photo.

No kids around to show me how!!

That's it from me for today thank you for popping by

and taking time to read this post.

please feel free to let

me know what you 

think.
