January Challenge Inspiration by Tusia Lech


Hello everyone, I am happy today to share with you my layout as an inspiration for this months challenge about vellum.
For my layout I have used Northern Lights and Paint Chips collections from 7 Dots Studio. Background is created with lots of different media, among others Finnabair Paper Paste, Impasto Paints, Golden High Flow Paints, Finnabair Camouflage Set and Patina Effect Paste. Full list of supplies is at the end of this blogpost.


I like to mix scrapbooking collections, so in that layout you will find chipboard, stencil, tags, stamps and stickers from 7 Dots Studio Paint Chips line and paper from Northern Lights collection. There are also flairs from UmWowStudio and I have used Golden Foil from Prima Marketing. 

If you are curious, how I created background, here is short step-by-step description:
1. I applied Finnabair Paper Paste through round stencil
2. Then I used Golden Fluid Acrylics to add colours
3. I applied Finnabair Impasto Paint (brown) through 7 Dots Studio stencil
4. Once everything dried, here and there I have added blue Patina Paste and made some splatters with Golden High Flow (brown)
5. Next step was stamping with embossing ink, using clear embossing powder, that I heated using heat gun and then applied Prima Golden Foil.
6. Final step for background was sewing with brown thread.

I have altered 7gypsies metal elements with Finnabair new Rust Paste set and Patina Effect Paste.

January 2018 - 2nd Guest Designer


Are you ready for a last bit of inspiration before the end of the Challenge? Let's see how our 2nd guest designer this month wants to inspire you. There is still time to join the Vellum paper themed  January Challenge.


Let's meet Darianna for this weeks inspiration:

Darianna Neko is here with you today! I'm so glad to be the guest designer in the Scrapki-Wyzwaniowo blog! Thank you for such an honor!) I learned about mixedmedia the spring of 2017. This magical world fascinated me and does not want to let go :). I like to make layouts, canvases and art objects. I also create altered projects in this technique. What is special about my projects? I think - contrast, darkened edges, gloom, atmospheric. I like gothic and fantasy theme.
 It's time to show my project I've made for the January 2018 Challenge - Vellum paper! 

I'm happy to show you my new canvas "Beauty in chaos!", that I've made for the January Challenge!
I like the gothic theme, so I've chosen a photo with a gothic girl with the skull of an animal, made by the photographer Svetlana Belyaeva (she takes very interesting atmospheric photos by the way).
This canvas is a monochromatic canvas. To make this canvas I used three colours. Black and white  are the main 
colours, and brown is an accent colour i used in the quotes. Black and white colours are very stylish, I love them!
As you see to make the composition I cut out so many butterflies! :) I stamped butterflies on the white vellum, plastic and some black card stock. And as you understand, then someone had to cut it all out !!! :))
Also I cut some vellum leaves using my dies and die-cut machine. By the way, you can see a rectangular sheet of plastic under the photo. I applied a texture paste to it as well as on the background. But this time I used white texture paste. And I shaded the edges of the plastic with black gesso.
The word sticker are from my beloved 7 Dots Studio (from Cotton Candy Dreams Collection)! For the finishing touch I splashed black and white inks and shaded the edges of canvas with black gesso.
I hope you enjoye my canvas about beauty and chaos with this atmospheric gothic butterfly-girl!  ;)

January 2018 - 1st Guest Designer


Are you ready to see how our guest designer this month handled our Challenge? It's time to see what project inspired by Vellum paper theme of January Challenge our guest created.

Let's meet Martina for this weeks inspiration:
Hello everyone!
My name is Martina Stoycheva. I was born and raised in Burgas, Bulgaria.  My town is on Black sea coast and it`s beautiful small place to live in. My interest in scrapbooking started in 2015. I was making albums for my little(then baby) girl. I`ve started my interest in mixed media a little more than a year ago. It was an instant love. I was making cards for a few months and then slowly discovered layouts, canvases and off the page objects. Now I`m enjoying myself and create for my current Design Teams. I can truly say that I found my real passion.

This month challenge theme – vellum paper,  inspired me for a soft and at the same time colourful layout. First I created the background. Then found a picture of Michelle Pfeiffer and I thought  it was perfect for the theme. She looks so tender and fragile. I incorporated vellum with all my leaves, doily under my photo, as well as little pieces of music notes vellum paper under my main points. It was truly a blast creating this one. So thank you so much for the invite Skrapki-Wyzwaniowo. I hope I inspired you at least a little to create something that includes vellum and join this month`s challenge. Wishing you all a great, unforgettable year and endless inspiration.







Thank you Martina for creating this beautiful project! If you like the guest designer work be sure to leave her some lovely comments.
