More painty goodness!

Hello stampers!

I ave some more painty goodness to share with you today!

First we have this plaque that was created by Vicky Fernando:


Vicky says:

"I started by painting a Collections chipboard shape with a base colour of pale beige (Kaiser acrylic paint) then adding some Veridian (Reeves acrylic paint) to the edges. I then used various stamps (Darkroom Door's Lovebirds, Gothic Arches, Wildflowers Vol 1, Flourish background stamp) Delish clear stamps (tiny script), Victoria's Secret (alphabet), Catslife Press (a little bird...)".


"They were all stamped with Archival ink (jet black) overlapping the images with MM's sea foam glaze, and using some bubble wrap and white acrylic paint. For the sentiment, I stamped the individual letters (Etcetera Circa 1937 foam stamps) with black acrylic paint onto some kraft coloured card, trimmed the letters with some decorative scissors, and when dried, I covered them with Dimensional Magic and stuck them on with a mix of double sided tape and foam tape".


"I added the red paper flower, a flower cut out of a playing card (using an Alterations die) and a brad, all covered with a touch of diamond Stickles".

Gorgeous work Vicky!

Next we have this wall hanging that was created by Shirley Henry:


Shirley says:

"I created a wall hanging with four small ATC size canvases. Two of them were painted with "Pool" dabber paint. The other two were painted on the back (to turn into "shadow boxes") in Mushroom dabber paint, then antique linen crackle paint. The 'lazy days' box I applied some scattered straw distress embossing powder to the bottom right hand side. The shadow boxes were also painted inside with Pool paint".

"Darkroom Door Seaside VOL1 stamps were used on all four. Inked with Versafine black. The bird is from the Darkroom Door Love Birds set. Darkroom Door Seaside film strips attached with foam tape inside shadow boxes. White mesh ribbon and some of the shells were misted with Sand glimmer mist.
Shells attached with hot glue gun".


"I used a gold gelly pen for the light in the Lighthouse, and some jute on the starfish canvas. A piece of sturdy cardboard was painted with Pool paint and jute for hanging was attached with staples. The four canvases then attached with hot glue".

Awesome work Shirley!

And lastly we have this card that was sent in by Jenene Evans:


Jenene says:

"For my card this month I have used stamps by Stampin' Up, and the text stamp is by Darkroom Door. I first stamped the 3 tortoises and cut them out, then painstakingly painted with acrylic paints and a very fine paint brush. The middle tortoise is raised up. The background of the card I partly embossed in black, and painted the rest with acrylic paint. The Text I stamped in grey and also used paint over some of the letters, then mounted on pink paper".

Great work Jenene! Those are some very funky tortoises!!

Keep all the great work coming everyone!
