Jess B's - Dreamz on Plywood

Hello Everyone
This week has been very hot in the Midwest
Drink lots of fluids and be careful out there

I received a new shipment of
CreativePaperclay®
ripped open three packages and went to town
 
 I tried to record my process and once again failed.  
I made a quick video of my finished work. 
 I wasn't able to capture the good picture quality as I wanted to.
 
 Sanded plywood
 
 Gessoed plywood started rolling out the Creative Paperclay®
 
I used Tim Holtz Texture Fade Embossing folder Clock and created folds n layers
and baked in oven
  
 Used oval and flower cookie cutters
 Used Rangers - MeltArt - Textured Treads Floral Flourish
 
 The Crafters Workshop - Branches Reversed TCW251 and used tinted textured paste
I saturate several colors of inks from
 
 Dylusion, Lindsy's Stamp Gang, Tsukineko Walnut Ink, Tim Holtz Adiorndack Color Wash 
Also used Stampendous Frantage Embossing Glitters
The those little encrusted pieces of frantage gives it that pop
I hope this gives you a better understanding of my process

thanks for stopping by
see you soon

Jess B's - Under the Sea

Hello Everyone,

Can you tell I want to be somewhere warm
Heck I always want to be somewhere warmer than the 
mid west
I always tell my mom that she had me in the 
wrong month (November) and in the wrong country
I am not a fan of cold weather 
but this is where we are

The sea is full of rich
intense bright colors
that we can only try to mimic
INSPIRATION

UNDER THE SEA

Wooden heart 
I painted gesso on the entire heart for color spraying later
  wanted wall piece to be 3-dimension
I rolled balls of Creative Paperclay®, flattened and curved each piece
with finger to look like a sea coral bed
 not the best rendition but it works
 Baked Creative Paperclay® and sprayed with
Adirondack - Color Wash - Stream
Lindy's Stamp Gang - Flat Fabio - Ocean Breeze Blue & Aloha Avocado
Tattered Angels - Iridescent Gold
I streamed hot glue on the edge or heart
and sprayed Steam and Iridescent Gold 
Pounced gold pigment gold to make the textured hot glue pop

thanks for stopping by
see you soon
