Happy Birthday Tag / Urodzinowy Tag

How to do the backround / Jak zrobic tlo

This is how I created the backround.
Start with gesso and just randomly cover your tag.
Tag is from Tag Pad Prima.
Tak wlasnie powstalo tlo owego taga. Zacznijcie od pokrycia taga primerem gesso.

Then I used some masks with modelling paste. I used Tim Holtz New Collection - Dot Fade.

You can really use any sort of mask as long as it has some irregular shapes and it will work well for the backround.

Nastepnie uzylam szablonu (stencil) i pasty strukturalnej. Moj szablon pochodzi z najnowszej kolekcji Tim'a Holtz'a. Mozecie uzyc jakiego tylko szablonu chce, tak by pasowal do budowania tla.

Then I used some yellow gelatos and ecolines (black, deep green and light green).

Nastepnie uzylam zoltego gelatos(taka sobie kredka) oraz farbek wodnych ecoline.

You can see in the backround of my photo - some flowers that have been used and some wooden chipboards from Cardz 'n' Scrapz. Randomly make splashes with ecoline water colour paint.

Here are some more pictures with closer look.

Bez wiekszego zastanowienia zrobcie byle jak kropki uzywajac farbek i pedzla.

Wszystko zostalo zakupione w sklepie Cork Art Suppliers w Cork.

We had sun today ! So hard to see dry sky in Ireland. Sun is even more rare.

I hope you will have a great evening and you may try to create some backround splashes ?

Enjoy and talk to you soon friends.

Mielismy dzis wreszcie slonce ! Tak trudno tu o suche dni... o slonce jeszcze trudniej.

Udanego wieczoru i kreatywnego pokropkowanego tla ;)

Love,

Marta

Mechanical love - Chipboard with a Difference

Mechanical love - Chipboard with a Difference
Mechaniczna milosc - Tekturki inaczej

Hello Everyone,
'Chipboard with a differences' is new blog challenge in Scrap Africa. It means we need to use some chipboard on our piece, but cannot be left raw, it must be altered.
I used chipboards from Molossi and Prima Hearts.
Here is my take on this challenge.
Witajcie,
'Tekturki inaczej' to nowe wyzwanie na blogu Scrap Africa. Oznacza to, ze musimy odmienic zwykle tekturki i cos z nimi zrobic. Moje ekturki sa z firmy Molossi oraz serca z Primy.
A oto moje praca na wyzwanie. 

I have altered chipboards by embossing them and covering with Coarse Texture Gel.
I also used gesso which was very much heated, it created bumps effect. Heart are covered with acrylic glaze silks - mix of ocean wave and teal zircon.
Backround of canvas is made with sprays, inks and uni posca pen which I love.
Odmienilam moje tekturki uzywajac do tego pudru do embossingu oraz zelu teksturowego - coarse texture gel. Uzylam takze gesso, ktorego mocno podgrzalam a dzieki czemu uzyskalam teksture babelkowa. Serca pokrylam farbkami jedwabnymi w dwoch kolorach.
Tlu kanwy pokryte zostalo sprayami,  tuszami oraz flamastrem uni posca.

And some closer look :)
I kilka zblizen :)

  

Chipboards are fantastic ! If you never tried to use them you definately must do it. You can experiment with them so much, ways of altering them is lots... maybe you will discover some new way to use them ?

The main thing is to have fun !

Tekturki sa fantastyczne ! Jesli nigdy ich nie uzywaliscie w swoich pracach to zdecydowanie trzeba to zmienic :) Mozna eksperymentowaqc z nimi, a sposob na ich odmiane jest wiele... moze Tobie uda sie wymyslic jakis nowy sposob na ich uzycie ?

Najwazniejsze to dobrze sie bawic !

Dziekuje za to, ze odwiedzacie mojego bloga, kazde slowo tu zostawione sprawia, ze mam usmiech na twarzy. Milego dnia !

Hello my friends.
I would love to share with you my latest journal page. To create this piece I used paints, sprays, acrylic glaze silks and chipboards from Molossi.
Witajcie kochani.
Chcialam dzis pokazac Wam moj najnowszy projekt - kartke z dziennika. Do stworzenia tej kreacji uzylam farb, sprayow, jedwabi oraz tekturek z firmy Molossi. 

Here are few photos to show you how I created the backround.
Tu mozecie zobaczyc jak powstawalo tlo.

Then I used sprays and paints all over the pages.
I used acrylic glaze silks - ocean wave, teal zircon and nutmeg. You can purchase silks and lots of mixed media products here at MIXED MEDIA PLACE.
I also used few chipboards from MOLOSSI.
I came across Molossi products thank to my lovely friend Cathi. She is a very creative lady with such a nice personality. Lots of craft people would know her as she is a very kind person with big heart. You can visit her blog here and see her fabulous creations at Celtic Knots.
Nastepnie calosc pokrylam sprayami i farbami. Mozecie nabyc wiekszosc w sklepie Mixed Media Place. Tekturki pochodza z Molossi. O firmie Molossi uslyszalam od mojej kolezanki Cathi. Jest to wspaniala osoba o wielkim sercu. Zajrzyjcie na jej bloga Celtic Knots.

As you can see chipboards are changed, I altered them. First I painted chipboards with white gesso and then emboss them with embossing tinsel - bridal (Ranger). Also on the sides I added small butterflies - they are tiny, tiny, tiny stickers :) I think the glasses present very cute now.
Jak juz zauwazyliscie tekturki sa nieco zmienione. Otoz pomalowalam je na bialo uzywajac gesso a nastepnie pokrylam embossingiem. Na bokach przykleilam malutenkie motylki naklejki. Mysle, ze okulary wygladaja teraz uroczo.

With this creation I wish to take part in Emotional Challenge at Mix Media Place Challenge.
It's about courage.
As my title says - 'Perhaps it takes courage to raise children' /J.Steinbeck.
I believe that being a mum - was and is so far my biggest challenge and it takes a lot of courage to be a good parent. Emily (my child) is like a gift from above for me and having her is the bravest journey.

This photo is a color board in Inkido Blog. I choose the first photo with blue and white cake and also brown elements. It's delicious looking color board.

Last place that I wish to mention is Vintage Udfordring. They challenge is about paint, spray or drop.

Prace te zglosilam na rozne wyzwania. Mam nadzieje, ze sie Wam spodobala.
Dziekuje za odwiedziny i do napisania.
I hope you enjoyed this looooong post here and I will talk to you later.
Have a great day my friends.
Lots hugs,
