Endurance - With Karyn Schultz!

 Hi Bee Arty Lovelies!

Its Karyn here and today I have a scrapbook page to share with you made using the new Timeless Grit collection available from Bee Arty.

 

 

 

 For this page I used a Kraft cardstock base. I added stencilling using the Scrapyard A4 Stencil from Timeless Grit and Leather Colour Paste.

 

 

I applied the Walnut Colour Artist Dye Ink using a combination of techniques including a Puffer Tool and splatters. 

 

 

I added strips of Defying paper (blue) and Finest paper (diamond) to each side of the page. I applied the walnut ink with a sponge to the edges to give a distressed look.

 

Here is my finished page. 

 

 

To embellish the page I've added papers and fussy cuts from the Timeless Grit Paper Collection pack. I've created die cuts using white cardstock and the Toolkit metal die set.   

 

Bookpaper, metal embellishments, and cotton thread are from my stash.  

Timeless Grit is a masculine collection with grungy vibes, and is designed by the talented Queenie Y. You can subscribe to the kit here. Kits come with a paper pack, stencils, metal dies, stamp sets, embellishments and full colour kit instructions.

 

Thanks so much for stopping by

Art Journalling - With Karyn Schultz!

 Hi Bee Arty Lovelies!

It's Karyn here and today I have an art journal page to share with you made using lots of fun arty products available from Bee Arty.

 

 

Ive use Jacaranda, Passion, and Pink Ice Colour Shimmer Dusts on the background.

 

 

I've added texture using white texture paste and the Whitewash Stencil from the Raspberry Fizz collection. I've added some random stamping with black Archival Ink and the Recipe Script stamp from the Raspberry Fizz collection and the Spotted Stamp Set from Full Circle. I found an image on the internet and matted some white gauze underneath along with diecuts created using Black cardstock and the Connected Metal Die also from Full Circle. Lastly I used a fine black Life of Colour Pen to draw around the edge of the page. I seem to have forgotten a title/words - oops :)

Unicorns Are Real - With Karyn Schultz!

 Hi Bee Arty Lovelies!

It's Karyn here and today I have a scrapbook page to share with you made using lots of fun products available from Bee Arty.

 

  

For this page I used a Kraft cardstock base and fluro Mica powders. I applied the colour using a painting with plastic technique and splatters. I used the fluro yellow, fluro pink, fluro orange and fluro purple Mica powders mixed with water.

 

 

Next I added stencilling using the Garden Stencil from Blooming Gnomes and Picked Raspberry Distress ink. 

  

This is a closeup of the stencilling over the painting - so cool! 

 

Then I added stamping using Recipe Script Stamp from Raspberry Fizz and Black archival ink.

Here is my finished page. I used the Unicorn A4 cut-a-part page to showcase this photo of Jessica a few years ago when she first got her horse Loki. How cute are the Unicorn images - and they go perfectly with the fluro!

  

I coloured some gauze using fluro pink Mica powder. I added a die cut created using kraft cardstock and the Sunny Border metal die set from Happy Snaps. Fussy cut leaves and flowers are from the Blooming Gnomes paper collection pack.

Be A Wildflower - With Karyn Schultz!

 Hi Bee Arty Lovelies!

It's Karyn here and today I have a scrapbook page and an ATC to share with you made using the Blooming Gnomes collection available from Bee Arty.

 

 

I was inspired by the sketch in the March mood board and Sketch challenge.

 

 I created a mixed media background on a sheet of 350gsm Heavy White Cardstock. I used a painting with plastic technique to add  Emerald, Blush and Espresso Mica powder then I added splatters of each colour.

 

I added stencilling using the Garden Stencil and and Leather Colour Paste. 

 

 

Here is my finished page. 

 

I added diecuts created using the Bricks metal die and Kraft Cardstock. Fussy cut elements and papers are from the Blooming Gnomes paper collection pack.

 I've been inspired by all the Artist Trading Card (ATC) swaps I've seen on social media. Although I haven't been part of any groups, I have created some for myself. They have a great small size of 2.5"x3.5" so are an achievable project in a limited time. This card was inspired by the colours in the March Challenge and created using leftovers from my Blooming Gnomes projects :).

 

 

Blooming Gnomes is a romantic collection with quirky vibes, and is designed by the talented Karen Yates. You will love this collection - the stamps, stencils and dies are not to be missed! You can subscribe to the kit here. Kits come with a paper pack, stencils, metal dies, stamp sets, embellishments and full colour kit instructions.

Let Love Grow - With Karyn Schultz!

 Hi Bee Arty Lovelies!

It's Karyn here and today I have a scrapbook page and an ATC to share with you made using the Blooming Gnomes collection available from Bee Arty.

 

 

I'm playing along with the colours in the April mood board and have been inspired by the sketch. We would love for you to join in with this challenge and be in the running to win a Bee Arty online voucher. You have until April 30th and you need to upload your challenge here (please follow challenge rules).  

 

 I created a mixed media background on a sheet of 350gsm Heavy White Cardstock. I was inspired by the background of the sketch so I used a pencil to mark some background squares, then I added a wash of colour using Espresso, Thunder Blue, and Emerald Mica powder inside each square. When dry I added splatters of each of these colours. Then I used my sewing machine to stitch around the edges.

 

 

I added stencilling using the Garden Stencil and and Leather Colour Paste in 2 of the squares. 

 

Here is my finished page. 

 

I added diecuts created using the Stitched Wildflowers metal die set and 250gsm White Cardstock. Fussy cut elements are from the Blooming Gnomes paper collection pack.
