Three Textures

and as always our DT have created some amazing projects to inspire you

Terry Hey there guys, I had so much fun altering a simple box into a classy one, at least I think so....I used lots of Gesso, Light Modelling Paste on top of a fabulous Stencil from Dutch Doobadoo, even a bit of crackle and Irisidescent Paste to cover it all and to create the Texture on top of the box. And offcourse I have worked with the fabulous colours (psss my favourite colour) Magenta, Looks like purple and Magenta Tint, looks like lavender to me

Lots of roses and a few butterflies from DD, some lace on the hearts and a sentiment stamp to finish my project for this week. 

Tracy - Hello sweet friends, I have been doing so many layouts this week that I thought I would go with the flow and do one more for this weeks challenge.

I had so much fun using Maimeri Gesso, Light Modelling Paste through a Dutch Doobadoo Art Masks, adding Pan Pastels to tissue paper and . . . .

 . . .  a few stamps and stickers thrown in for good measure! More over on my blog here.

Lou: I have made a tag this week using the Doobadoo Fabric Art ( iron-on denim) as my base. I have lightly brushed the denim with silver pan pastel to create a soft sheen. I have used Haberdashery    stamp set from Studio 12 coloured with raw umber pan pastel and then embossed with clear detail powder. The background paper is from an old book which has been "antiqued" using raw omber pan pastel.

The gorgeous swirls, buttons and butterflies are from Dutch Doobadoo  and they have been lightly tinted with raw umber and white pan pastel.

Claire  I had loads of messy fun creating my project for the new challenge, creating different textures using Maimeri Iridescent Paste coloured with Gold and Copper PanPastels. I used a palette knife, a stamp and a Pronty stencil

 and then had a play with a texture tool around the side of my little book box. The butterfly is one of the gorgeous laser cuts from Dutch Doobadoo, love em! You can find all the details on my blog

Nikky....I am adoring the new Doobadoo products - they go so well with all the mediums and masks and - well, everything! It's a long time since I came across products which are so versatile in terms of the genre of crafts you can use them with...they're fab! I decided to make a simple tag this week.

I used Phthalo Green and a bit of Perm Red Pan Pastels to cover a white tag shape, then used the Faded dots Doobadoo mask, applied Versamark through it and then dusted over the top with metallic Pan Pastels. I cut a couple of strips of paper and stamped with Versamark again with the check background stamp and then coloured it with Perm Red again. I used a scroll stamp and stazon to stamp over the background and then just made a little embellie using the kraft heart and the laser cut wings which are just awesome. You can see all the products I used here.
