Siblings by Lynn Good

Hi, Lynn here with another layout and a little step by step.  I am just loving the effect Colour Blast products have with black.  I have created the following layout:

I began with a Donna Downey stencil and Colour Blast Pastes - Snow White and Lipstick - putting them on together so they blended a little.

Whilst waiting for that to dry - I coloured some Prima wire and flowers that I had emboss stamped and fussy cut with the same colours in the Shimmer Spray.  Whilst I had the sprays out I put some splatters on the layout.

The chipboard was embossed with Colour Blast Embossing Powder - Lipstick.

I have then put the layout together and added some coloured pearls to the flowers.

Some Close Ups:

The products I have used can be found on the Colour Blast website.

Til next time - Happy Crafting :)

Canvas from the Paperific Expo in Brisbane by Lynn Good

Hi everyone, for those that were not able to make it to Brisbane for the expo I have two canvases that I made.  The first one was for the display.  I wish in hindsight that I had taken step by step photos for this but has they say - "hindsight is a wonderful thing!" I will in the near future re-create a similar one and post the steps on here.

Some close ups:

I also created this little canvas to show an example of two of the products- the embossing powder and the pastes.

I started by painting the canvas with black gesso.  I have then used the Colour Blast and Powder containers to draw circles on the canvas with pencil.   I then coloured them in using the Shimmer Pastes - Sunshine and Royalty.  I have applied the heat gun so they would bubble and give a rough effect.  I have outlined the circles with Black Neo II Watercolour crayons.I used the Colour Paste - Snow White and a Tim Holtz Dot Fade stencil to over the top.  This I left to dry naturally.

I embossed the title from Whichcraft do you do with a combination of Royalty and Charocal Grey.

I embossed the dragon with Charcoal Grey and Snow White Powders and the chipboard offcuts with Bling.

I hope that you have enjoyed my "Chinese New Year"inspired canvas.

Til next time Happy Crafting :)

Art Journal - by Lynn Good

Hi Lynn back again to share an art journal page I created

There is something about the Eiffel Tower that makes me want to travel and see it - it is on my bucket list for sure :)

I did an image transfer of the tower and then sealed it with clear gesso.

I have used a Kaisercraft stencil - Stained Glass and Gloss Gel Medium.  Once dry I have used Colour Burst Sprays - Singin the Blues and Just blue.

I cut out the hearts from some scrap music paper (I love to collect music books and dictionaries from book sales and markets).  I have sprayed these with Colour Blast shimmer spray - Rose Petal and Royalty.

I have embossed the Tim Holtz Title Stamp with Colour Blast Paste - Dusty Charcoal

I have randomly stamped with a Tim Holtz Ledger Script stamp in black ink.

For the final touches I have used a Tim Holtz Stencil - Stripes and Colour Blast Paste - Royalty.

I have linked the products used to the Colour Blast Online store at the bottom of the post.

Thanks for stopping by and if you are going to the Expo in Brisbane, I will see you there!!!!

Happy Crafting :)

Butterfly Box - by Lynn Good

Hi everyone, Lynn here to show you how I transformed a display box that I had sitting in my cupboard since ... forever!!

I painted the entire box with two coats of black gesso.

I used a Hero Arts stencil and Colour Blast paste - Apple of my eye, around the edges and sides of the box.

I filled in the gaps using an Art C stencil and Colour Blast Paste - Bling and Snow White

For the centre of the box I used a Crafters Workshop stencil - Butterfly Collage and Colour Paste - Bling, Singin the Blues, Sunshine and Dusty Charcoal.

I then mounted butterflies onto strips of acetate that I bend so the butterflies were in a 3D effect.
