Tracy Scott - hey there gorgeous people, I love to have ready made backgrounds that I can use in my art journal and I've been experimenting recently with shadow and light. I had so much fun creating this still life using my PanPastels over an acrylic painted background. Give it a try...I guarantee you'll never look at still life the same way again !!!

                                             


Alysha - This week I have created a card mixed media style. I have swept the background in Pan Pastels and used masks to create the background then built it up with some butterflies and a sentiment. Hugs Aly xxx

Claire C  I've made a Christmas card for my DT project this week, PanPastels are perfect for scenic cards as they blend so beautifully and if you go wrong you can rub them out with a pencil eraser lol.









Terry; Hey guys, Christmas is near so I thought that I make a Christmas Card, a simple one but I am very happy with the outcome. The background is made with A piece of paper. On top I worked with a snowflake stencil from Dutch Doobadoo and used Light  Modelling Paste on it. The White Coarse PanPastel was used on top of the snowflakes to give them a bit of a shine. Than I placed a cute image of a Vintage girl. I wrapped a piece of rope around the card and placed a sentiment underneith.

A few of the products that I have used are:

Hi there it's Terry and I have made a little project for your inpiration.....this is what I have made....
I started out with this cute little giftbox. I worked on the background with Embossing Ink and a stamp from Christmas.....



After stamping I took my PanPastels and colored the background with it...On top to seal it I painted my gift box with Gel Mat Medium. A little star was colored with some ink and I have wrapped a piece of rope around it. First I placed a cute vintage image on the gift box, than the star and last but not least a Merry Christmas sentiment.

Here are some of the products that I have worked with:

Tracy Scott - Hey there beautiful people, hope you are all keeping well and wrapping up warm this week. My post this week is a 'DreamCatcher' in acrylics and PanPastels in my Art Journal. I love these magical things and the Pans were a real 'dream' to work with alongside my acrylics and add that little special something to the background for the finished piece...




Terry: I have made a project for Christmas, I started the background with Gesso and second layer with a snowflake stencil from Dutch Doobadoo, I used the Light Modelling Paste to create the snowflakes..on top of the snowflakes I worked with the Light Blue PanPastel and White Coarse to give it a bit of a snowy shine. 


For decorations I placed this cute image of the vintage girl, A few stars are worked on with PanPastels and crackle and the top layer is Gel Medium...the front and back of my project were decorated with some lace. Last but not least I placed a sentiment. 

These are some of the products that I have worked with: 



Claire  I've opted for a poppy theme this week with lots of stamping and colouring with my PanPastels








Beautiful makes girls!!
