SUYS September Mid Month Design Team Reveal - mixed media challenge

New month, new challenge!! This month we want you to create something with mixed media! Don't forget to also include a handmade item! 😃

Here is what I came up with, I finally scrapped some pics of my hurricane boy on the day he got glasses. 

A huge amount of mixed media in this one. I did smears of colourblast texture paste in 3 colours, used gel medium to adhere some pattern paper with the glasses on it, added in some black stencilling, some stamping in a few places too. On top I added a cut up white lattice border sheet and some string was haphazardly glued under the pic. This was a lot of fun! 

Items used:

Colourblast texture paste in black, orange and blue

Stencil used was

Glasses pattern paper byWhite Hexagon patterned resin border piece (cut up) by The Resin Rainbow.. 

orange Resin heart by The Resin Rainbow.. 

orange striped dots by The Resin Rainbow.. 

square striped dots by The Resin Rainbow.. 

stay cool cluster and star flair epoxy by Rainbow Splendour

suys June Design team Entry!

Welcome to June!

This layout came together really quickly once I found the image I was after! 

The challenge for this month was to use 2 colours next to each other on the colour wheel.

Normally with a colour wheel you use a colour opposite so they compliment each other but in this instance it was slightly trickier!

 The pic of my crazy daughter on crazy sock day at school was perfect with a mix of blue and green in the image already. 

Products Used:
Parts of the tulip border by The Resin Rainbow 
Green Resin Doily by The Resin Rainbow
Green & Blue Resin Dots
White Resin Deer from Forest Animals Resin Set at The Resin Rainbow
Blue Bow by Rainbow Splendour
Striped Pin by Rainbow Splendour
Green Daisy Pin by an old scrap company thepaintbrushgoesspotty
Various papers from my stash or from Rainbow Splendour Kits

Thanks for looking.

White With 1.. May 2017 .. Deep Black

Welcome to May!

Can someone flew me where the last 4 months went to?, they have flown past!

I got a  bit clever with my title for this one. I took the chipboard word and coloured it with acrylic paint with a lettter per colour, added some crackle medium and then black paint over the top! .. while I wanted it to pop with full bright colour, that wouldn't have worked with the guidelines for the challenge or the layout! .. had forgotten all about that technique!

Products Used

Black booktape used as a tag strip

Resin Scroll Border from The Resin Rainbow (was cut up and glued ontop of strip)

White circle chipboard frame

Hexagon stencil with gesso and back paint on the background

Black tiny Jewelled shapes (used the hearts and diamonds) from The Resin Rainbow 

Rainbow striped resin dots from The Resin Rainbow ..

Thanks for looking!

SUYS Feb Design Team Entry

Welcome to February! .. had lots of fun playing with the challenge at Show Us your Stuff for this month!

 

I started with a swipe of silver paint using a brayer, then I added some 'sunshine' colourblast texture paste over the top using a very vintage HS dots 'mask'. Did some searching for a pattern paper with a cute border edge that I added on. 

Somewhere in the middle of the night, I had the idea to add some silver/grey crepe paper as a sewn ruffle border to the side. 

After that the colours just came just happened. I went for a pastel pallete with baby pink, lemon, mint, cream and a pop of colour using a white/black spotty card. All cards came from my stash of ephemera. 

I received a new mold for The Resin Rainbow .. just as I was starting this layout and knew I was going to incorporate it somehow. So I cut up a part of the bespoke flower and pushed them into spot. 

Items Used:

Bespoke Flower layer in white (cut up) by The Resin Rainbow.. 

Cabbage Flowers by The Resin Rainbow.. 

tiny resin roses by The Resin Rainbow.. 

cream Bow by Rainbow Splendour

Black/white enamel dots by The Resin Rainbow.. 

Hexagon Clip by Rainbow Splendour 

Silver grey heart by The Resin Rainbow.. (from the happy birthday alphabet range)

paper flowers all by D-Lish Scraps. 

'Sunshine' colour paste by ColourBlast Australia  

 

That's about it for now .. be sure to check out what the rest of the DT have done with this seriously fun challenge this month - and get yours in, you still have 2 days!
