Jess B's - SHE Silhouette

Hello Everyone,

Sharing with you another fun way to use Delight®

I was listening to Maxwell - A Woman's Work

It made me think about all the things we do day in and day out

It's never ending and we keep pressing!

Dedicate to all the Women of world

I mixed the Delight® with black acrylic paint

I had a unfinished canvas board that I took out of my stash
found the silhouette on line

I rolled out the Delight® and did some free hand carving using the silhouette as my guide

I pressed the floral flourish textured tread to give more texture

Added a butterfly made with with Delight®

A Woman's Worth

A woman's beauty is not only

In the glow of her skin

But the depth of her eyes

And the warmth of her heart

A woman's strength is not only

In the bow of her back

But the magnitude of her tears

And the softness of her words

A woman's wisdom is not only

In the value of her words

But the knowledge of when to hold them

And the journey she takes to learn them

A woman's courage is not only

In her determination to fight

But her willingness to walk away

And confidence to say no

A woman's grace is not only

In the way she dances through her day

But in the love notes she leaves

And the wonderful meals she prepares

A woman's love is not only

In the kisses she gives

But in the sacrifices she makes

And the moments given to you alone

A woman's worth is not only

In the things she does

But who she truly is

And who she helps you become

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 - Spring Bunny is coming!

Hello Everyone

Here is a fun little Easter wall decor

I made with Delight^TM

making beautiful colors of spring

anticipating Easter eggs, baskets, and oodles of candy

 

with latex gloves, I cut Delight^TM into 5 sections

placed a dollop of paint and mixed together

rolled out the Delight^TMand used mini cookie cutters 

 they dry instantly with a soft foamy texture

I applied to a wooden petal shaped wall hanging

from the dollar store

I also used Creative Paperclay®

for the bunny to give it more dimension

The girls asked me to hang this on their bedroom

door. It made them smile!

This is a great easter basket stuffer
You have to try Delight^TM

it's a wonderful product and the children can also

have fun making their own craft.

WAIT!!!

One package has mysteriously disappeared...

I wonder who took it? 

Happy Easter

I wanted to bring some vibrant colors

to cheer up spirits

as we are still in the winter season

Nana is doing better

sitting up, walking, and eating!

Just all around good :o)

I have been fascinated by

mixed media and all the textures that

can bring decor to life

I feel a shift in my creativity

I used Creative Paperclay®, heart cookie cutters, flourish clear stamp, and a candy bowl

to create the flower shap.  Bake according to the instructions.

I a long canvas that I pulled out bring acrylic paints and 

used an old hotel card to combine the paints

Adirondack Color Wash, 

Lindy's Stamp Gang Sprays - Flat Fabios

Tattered Angel Notes from Garden with StazOn Olive Green Ink

Added sequins to the center of the flowers

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
