Seconda settimana per la nostra Designer Spotlight Nicola aka Paperprofusion! QUI il link al suo meraviglioso blog!
Hi all and welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge!
This week we are challenging you to Use Your Favorite Tool
What is YOUR favorite crafting tool? Is it a Paper Distresser, a Fuse Tool, a Heat Tool, Die Cutting Machine? We would love to know what is your ‘go to’ tool!
Second week for our Designer Spotlight Nicola aka Paperprofusion! HERE the link to her wonderful blog!
Gli strumenti dei quali veramente non posso fare a meno, o quantomeno quelli che uso di più, sono Big Shot e Heat tool.
Nel progetto di oggi ho usato una tag Etcetera, i nuovi splendidi supporti che sono stati presentati da Tim a Creativation. Scusate se manca la foto, ma la foga di iniziare il lavoro e vederlo finito mi ha fatto saltare alcune passaggi! Comunque... la maggior parte ci sono!
Ecco un piccolo tutorial fotografico!
My tools essential are Big Shot and Heat tool.
In this project I used an Etcetera tag , new wonderful media surfaces that were presented by Tim in Creativation. Sorry if some photos are missing, but the rush to start my work and see it finished made me jump a few steps! Anyway ... most of pictures are here!
Small tutorial!
Nelle foto sopra potete vedere i materiali e i passaggi, senza usare Heat tool questo sfondo sarebbe impossibile. Il risultato della mia galassia è così proprio perchè quando spruzzo acqua e Distress spray, asciugo subito usando Heat tool. Il trucco è muovere la superficie durante l'asciugatura, in modo che i colori creino effetti che si fissano sul foglio.
In questo caso, una volta arrivata allo sfondo desiderato (ho scelto quello blu!), ho spruzzato nuovamente acqua solo su alcuni punti dello sfondo, poi ho aggiunto una goccia alla volta oro e argento, sempre muovendo durante l'asciugatura.
Una spruzzata di bianco con il Distress Splatter brush, stencil con stelle dorate e infine l'effetto via lattea!
Per l'effetto via lattea fate cadere una goccia di Distress paint Picket fence diluito con acqua e poi tamponate con una salvietta strizzata, si espanderà sfumando il colore e risultando meno coprente, lo potete vedere nelle ultime 4 foto qui sopra.
In the picture above you can see the materials and steps, without using Heat tool this background it would be impossible. To create this galaxy background you have to spray the Distress sprays and water, then you have to dry immediately. The trick is to move the surface during drying, so the colors create effects that you can fix on the sheet.
In this case, when I finished (I chose the blue one!), I sprayed again a little bit of water over some points of the background, then I added a drop at a time of gold and silver.
A white splash with Distress Splatter brush, stencil with golden stars and finally the effect Milky Way galaxy!
To create the Milky Way galaxy effect I used a drop of Picket fence Distress paint, diluted with water and then I've swabbed with a baby wipe, the color will expand and the result is a transparent splash of white, you can see it in the last 4 photos above.
For the base of my tag I used the Big Shot with a wonderful embossing folder by Seth Apter and Cardstock metallic. I have completely covered the cardstock with Black soot Distress paint. I dried with Heat tool and then removed some of the color with a scouring pad. If you do not have the scouring pad, you can replace it with thin sandpaper, but the effect is not quite the same.
Il timbro che ho usato fa parte del set Motivation 3, bellissimo, super versatile, io l'ho spezzato in varie parti e l'effetto mi piace, spero anche a voi!
The stamp I used is part of Motivation 3 set by Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous, beautiful, super versatile, I have broken it into several parts and I like the effect, I hope you like too!
To stamp Believe I used the ink Simon Says Stamp Pigment Ink Pad White.
Umbrella man è un super classico e a me piace sempre moltissimo, in questo caso ho preparato (lo vedete nel tutorial) uno sfondo molto chiaro che ho timbrato con Ranger Paint Dabber Gold Metallic.
In questa foto potete vedere che ci sono molti strati e molti materiali in questo lavoro: stencils, timbri, cuciture, macchie, cardstock metallico, watercolor paper, corrugated cardboard...
Posso definirlo Mixed media? Io spero di sì, sapete che sono una principante in questo campo! Devo imparare ancora tantissime cose, soprattutto sulla stratificazione! L'ho già detto questo è l'anno giusto per le sperimentazioni!
Umbrella Man is a classic and I always like very much, in this case I made (you see in the tutorial) a very light background, I stamped it with Ranger Paint Dabber Gold Metallic.
In this photo you can see that there are many layers and a lots of various materials in this work: stencils, stamps, stitching, spots, metallic cardstock, watercolor paper, corrugated cardboard ...
I can define Mixed Media? I hope so, you know I'm a beginner in this area! I have to learn so many things, especially about layering! I've said this is the right year for my experiments!
