My Workshop Samples from Saturday

 
Another great day at Eileen's Workshop
 
Here are my makes from Eileen's Workshop on Saturday
Canvas with a few techniques. Heavy Gesso to coat base, tissue, more Gesso or similar glue medium. When dry, Gesso
again. Used acrylics paints to add colour detail. When dry Stencil with a texture paste medium or similar.
Embellishments of choice. This time I used a HoneyDoo Stamp and coloured with Versacolour and Wink of Stella Pens and cut out. May gloss them too. My background stencil was the  Ginko leaf  by Designs by Ryn

Second piece is a card. I used a texture paste fairly thinly on the back ground. Left to dry. Distress inks to add colour and when dry tamped image - a Penny Black Stamp. I like the variance in colour shading where the paste absorbs the ink. Used a metallic pen on the "dot" leaves. Inked a narrow border round card before using a silver pen round the border and to add a few dots for interest again with the silver pen. Matt and layering to finish
 
A card again. "flicked" a masking fluid with a brush. Left to dry. Made mask for moon and positioned before using Distress Inks. Removed masked and coloured moon. When ink was dry Stamped image - a HoneyDoo Stamp and coloured. Splattered water drops to lift some of the ink and when dry removed the artist mask to reveal "white". Used a gold pen to highlight edges.
 
What a great day and pleased with my results too!!
