Crushing on the Colour Crush Watercolours

Hi All Tanya here...

Who has tried the Color Crush Watercolors???? If you haven't, you NEED to!! You wont be disappointed!

I have played with them a few ways, just to test them out and see what they can do. I stamped with them, i painted with them, i smooshed them, and sprinkled them, and I'm sure i could find another 101 ways to use them!

Once i got a feel for them i decided that smooshing them was may favorite method and this is how i created the background for this layout I used Raspberry and Blue Heaven. Then i used of cuts to build layers behind my photo.

Well thats all for me for now... I hope its inspired you to try something new!

Hi Crafters,

My turn up on the blog today with my take on the February Tic Tac Toe

challenge for Shop and Crop Scrapbooking. 

Here is the challenge if you haven't caught it so far! 

Tic Tack Toe

Pick a Line and Create ; can be vertical, horizontal or diagonal has to include items in the line (you can include other things on your layout but we must be able to see the line you picked).

Please note this isnt a colour challenge !

Here is my take on the challenge, I chose the bottom line of the challenge, Watercolours, Doilies and Stencils.

I chose to complete a Mixed Media Tag using Lindy's sprays and magicals as my watercolours, a handmade doily using modelling paste (oh yes I did!) and a Dusty Attic Stencil with modelling paste. If I get enough interest I will do a tutorial making modelling paste embellies, so let me know in the comments or contact Kylie if you would like to see it happen :-)

 

 Materials used from Shop and Crop Scrapbooking -

From my stash - 

Modelling Paste, Gesso, Dusty Attic Stencil, Stamps, Versafine Ink

And introducing a couple of RAW Mixed Media Tags from Memory Maze Chipboard that I helped design, which is super exciting! 

These tags are heavy weight chipboard with custom made 'fancy tops' and they will withstand copious amounts of mediums. Perfect fancy ATC's or just mixed media tags. 

Here they are in their RAW state, ready for artsy fartsy stuff and things 😝

Plenty more designs available with more on the way. If you want to get your hands on these beauties, contact Kylie at Shop and Crop for a special customer order.

That's it from me today, 

If you haven't already, make sure you have a go at this month's challenge, pick a line, complete your layout and head over to the facebook page and link it up! 

Also don't forget there is a Design Team Callout for Shop and Crop at the moment as well.

Hugs
