Rusty Old Truck



Ok, quick post as I just shared this over at Passionate Paper Creations and Friends.  This amazing stamp was released by DoveArt Studios recently and I finally had the time to color it up.  I colored a version of this a few months ago and it was the first time I'd ever attempted a vehicle or a rusty one even.  Now I love to make things rusty!  This is one of my favorite images.  You can find it here


When I colored a version of it a few months ago I did the truck in yellow which now sits framed in my husbands office.  This time I went with a BG color.  It reminded me of a tomboy truck so I framed it with polka dots and it will hang in my studio :)  Sorry Jeff!  He likes this one too but can't have it!  



Gothica - Little Darlings Rubber Stamps




He!!o, Rhea here to bring in a little Saturated Canary Inspiration.  But she really isn't Gothic in this design.  You can simply click any of the below box links to go straight to LDRS, Saturated Canary Stamps or Gothica.

I repurposed a clip frame for this piece.  Added mini dot paper from Simple Stories and Maja Paper.  I also added Dewdrop Circle Die and Darling Square Die (using the flower sprigs)

  (like the new layout and style?)

I will see you tomorrow for a really big surprise!!!!!  just sayin!

If Friends Were Flowers I'd Pick You



If friends were flowers I would pick you.  One of my favorite sentiments from the Vintage Affections Collection Friends which you can find by clicking here.   This was perfect to go with this mixed media canvas.  To add some additional flowers I used the LDRS Designer Dies - Darling Square Set which you can find here.  This set has the cutest little flowers which were perfect for this project.


I wouldn't even know where to begin explaining how I created this canvas.  Honestly, I woke around 4:30 with this project on my mind and I just started.  I didn't even really thing about it...I just did it.  There is a lot of gesso, texture paste, metals, flowers, chip pieces, sprays and micas.  It's all about layers and drying each one before adding the next.  



Thanks for coming by today I will be back soon,  Rhea
