Stamped Fabric Book

Hello! 
Today we are sharing with you a project from our archives 
That was created by a Guest Designer: Karen Lackey 
Here she created a vintage inspired stamped fabric book. 
Enjoy!


Supplies needed:
  1. Wing It - Rubber Stamp Set.
  2. Lace place mat
  3. Pink gauze fabric
  4. Muslin fabric and batting
  5. Dark ink pad
  6. Hot iron
  7. Sewing machine
  8. Metallic embroidery floss
  9. Pink seed beads
  10. Pocket watch charm
  11. Vintage trim to tie the book.
Begin by stamping onto the muslin fabric. When the ink is dry, run a hot iron over it to heat set the image. 



 Pin the stamped muslin onto the batting and sew together using your sewing machine,

Use the metallic thread to embellish the angels wings. Then finish with the seed beads and pocket watch charm.  



Sew your lace place mat onto your gauze. Keeping book open, sew the angel piece onto the front of the book, then hand stitch the trim for a closure.

Peace and Joy




 

Hi all, Monique here to show  you how to make this tag.
I originally thought this was going to be quick and easy but it turned out to be a lot more work than I thought. Worth it though,  so enjoy!

Supplies

Sin City stamps: Cherub border background and Vintage wavy banner

Liquid masking fluid
watercolor paint
pencils
stencil
Wire
Cardstock
dies
modelng paste
3 d foam
waterproof stamp ink in black




 1) Stamp the images using waterproof black ink on a tag
 2) Cover the stamps with liquid masking fluid using an old paint brush (the masking liquid dries into a rubber like mask that will resist water color paint)
 3)Mix water and blue and green water color paint on a piece of plastic or acrylic stamping block and press it onto the tag to create the background.
 4) Repeat till you like the result and let dry.
 5) Scrape modeling paste through a stencil and let dry.
 6) Remove the masking fluid (you can rub it off but be careful not to remove the modeling paste too much.)
 7) Colour the modeling paste and the stamp impressions, I used Inktense pencils.
 8) Die cut a swirl and stars , use gilding wax on the swirls and paint the stars yellow.
 9) Adhere the swirl to the center of the rays.

 10) Wrap some wire into a circle like in the photo.
 11) Attach the wire to the swirl and hang a star in the wire circle
12) Use foam tape to adhere the smaller stars and add a sentiment to the banner.
 Here is some closer looks at the stars.

Christmas Art Journal spread

Hello all, Monique here showing you how I made this page in my small Moleskin art Journal

Supply list:
Music paper (old sheet music or scrapbook paper)
Glue
Scissors
Glitter glue
Black and blue  waterproof stamp ink
Paints in vintage green, colonial green and traditional burnt umber
Punched holly leaves
Water
Stencil
Paintbrushes
Colored pencils
Vintage image/ clip art
Black pen
Acrylic block
Pencil
Glitter cardstock in vintage green / yellow and red colors
Step 1: Put the journal on the music paper and trace around it to have a guideline to cut the paper to the right size to fit in your journal.

Step 2: Glue the music paper in the journal and let the glue dry.
Step 3: Add a thin layer of vintage green paint using a paint brush. Leave the edges blank. You don't have to be precise, we are aiming for an old rustic look. Make sure the print of the paper stays visible.
Step 3: Thin some burnt umber paint with a little water and paint the edges and also add a bit over the green paint, make sure you can still see the print of the paper through the paint. If you used too much paint, just remove some using a baby wipe
Step 4: Use a stencil and Colonial green paint on the page.
Step 5: Make impression using the Sin City Fancy Curls and Flowers flourish art stamp and a waterproof blue ink on the edges and the corners, but also in the middle of the page. Use different parts of the stamp by turning it,  like in the picture.
Step 6: Use the Sin City Skull Streetlight Halloween art stamp on the left page, make sure your stamp ink is waterproof otherwise it will smudge when adding next layers.
Step 7: Make an impression using the Sin city angel feathered wings heart shaped rubber stamp, make sure the wings are in the right spot to be the wings of the vintage figure, so make a little mark on the paper before stamping by putting the image in place, remove it after you made the positioning mark and stamp the wings using black waterproof ink.
Next color the wings.  I used pencils in Blue, Purple and white

Step 8: Adhere the vintage image on the wings impression, make sure the feet line up with the bottom part of the wings. Next trace around the image using a black pen that will allow you to fade it into the background a little before it dries permanently ( I used a Faber Castell Pitt marker). Also use this pen and same technique to create a bit of a surface for the lamp and the angel to stand on. So draw a line and fade it out using your finger.
Step 9: Punch out the holly leaves and berries using glitter cardstock, I used green and yellow for the leaves and pink for the berries. Use the holly to cover the skull on the lamp.
Step 10: Add glitter glue on the edges of the page and on the "ground"where the lamp and the angel are standing. Also add a bit on the lamp, I was aiming for a snow effect.
Step 11: Write a sentiment.

Here some more pictures of the finished page.
