Hi everyone, as it's the fourth Friday of the month we usually have an invited guest Creative Guide, but today we thought we would mix things up a bit and share with you some projects and links back to the amazing Wendy Vecchi's blog. Some of us on the team here at AVJ were lucky enough to attend Wendy's UK workshop back in August and had an awesome day with Wendy who is not only a very talented artist but a great teacher. So it is with great pleasure that we share her talents with you today. Wendy had super projects for us to make and here she is with all the boxes that we had made in the morning. In the afternoon she taught us techniques ...... ...... and we made some fabulous tags. These are Wendy's samples. Wendy is always looking for new ways to use products and in one of her newer blog posts - which she has called 'still looking ..... beyond the obvious' she has used Tim's acrylic icicles ..... .... in a completely different way, transforming it into grass. I'm sure you will have seen Wendy's signature products, stamps, stencils, inks, embossing powders, texture and embossing pastes and also her art parts ranges and more. On her blog she shares with us how to use them creating tutorials with beautiful projects in her own inimitable style, whether that be as art journal pages - - cards with stamps- - cards using die-cuts - - 3D projects - - plaques - - a journal (on the England tour) - -or just using scraps. Wendy is also a source of never ending new techniques both on her own blog and as a designer for Ranger, such as - faux graniteware glittered embossing powder - using archival ink and rubbing alcohol (surgical spirit in the UK) ..... At the end of her Ranger tutorials Wendy likes to add some hints and tips - check this one out. This sweet card uses her newsprint paper. So today not only have you got all this wonderful inspiration from Wendy but she has very kindly sent us a give-away too. On the 12th December I will run random org number generator and one lucky person who has left a comment on this post will win all these fabulous goodies. Stamp it - stencil-it ROSE Stamp it - Stencil-it HOLIDAY ICONS Stencils for art - diamonds are a girls best friend Stencils for art - funky words Stencils for art - polka dotty Stencils for art - happy holidays Wendy Vecchi designer series archival ink - violet Wendy Vecchi designer series archival ink - pink peony Thank you Wendy for your generosity and it is a pleasure to share your amazing talent and projects with our readers. Just before we go I thought I would share an AVJ family photo - those of us who attended Wendy's workshop - Nicky, Julie, Annie, Anne, Jenny, Tracy, Brenda Thank you for joining us today and don't forget to leave your comment below and to be on the safe side it's best to have done it by the end of the 11th December London time. Don't forget you have one more week to enter our November challenge. Although it is called 'Baby you're a Firework' it does not have to have fireworks in the subject of your entry - you only need to have included glitter, bold colours or ink and paint splats so that it is inspired by the flashes of colour and sparkle of fireworks. See you again on Monday with the last of our DI posts for the month and a round-up of the Creative Guides projects that were included in November's travel bag. Have a great weekend. hugs Brenda and the Creative Guide team. xxxx

there's NO fooling here... today I have a fun distress paint tutorial to share... you'll notice that there are 2 step out photos missing... once again... I was having so much fun that I simply lost my mind... hey... it happens... and the MORE fun I have... the more it happens... ***note to self...PAY ATTENTION!*** to create the background, I applied these distress paints onto my craft sheet... wild honey broken china and a tiny bit of salty ocean... then misted them with water... I swiped my specialty stamping paper thru the paints until the paper was covered... then misted on more water & dried it... the project base is the art parts rectangle from the rectangle frame set... save the other pieces for another project... I used Glue N Seal to adhere the specialty stamping paper to the art part base... & used the sanding grip to sand & distress the edges, then added a bit of walnut stain distress ink, with the blending tool to cover the white paper edges... it looks like this... with beautiful blending of the colors, in true distress style... next I inked my script background stamp with french ultramarine archival ink, stamped over the base & dried it... ***by choosing a lighter archival color, I'll be able to add more layers without creating a jumbled mess...*** I painted my clear clicker cutts clearly for art flower with wild honey distress paint & dried it... ***I like to dab the paint on... then tap it with my fingers to spread it around*** when the first paint layer was dry, I added a second layer of wild honey... but this time I let it partially dry... and then press the UNINKED stamp onto the flower to remove some of the paint... this created a REALLY cool tone on tone effect... ***clean the paint off your stamp before it dries*** here's the flower... I darkened the photo a bit to better show the detail... I WILL be doing this again... it's subtle...but very cool... now some stenciling with the paints... I like to use Cut & Dry foam to stencil... I cut some pieces about 1 inch x 2 inches... this is a good size to work with... it's small enough that you can work in small areas... you can also use both ends for a color... ***this is cool...the paint does not dry stiff or crunchy... I've been using the same Cut & Dry pieces since we got the paints...*** I stenciled the first set of leaves with peeled paint distress paint & dried it... then added more leaves, again with the peeled paint distress paint & dried it... ***I used stencil tape to block off part of the leaves, since I only wanted to stencil over the bottom 5 leaves... ***I like the Cut & Dry to be fairly dry... after I pick up the paint, I like to dab some off, so it's not super saturated*** ***clean your stencil before the paint dries...*** I placed the stencil back over the leaves... inked my text stamp with jet black archival & pressed the tiny text stamp over the stencil... I did this over all the leaves... ***to remove the archival ink from the stencil, I use cheap Dollar Store rubbing alcohol... it's quick & easy... I got a quart size bottle for under $2.00*** ***another tip... when stenciling, make sure not to go over the edge of the stencil*** ***and another tip... I find it easiest to use an UNMOUNTED stamp, when stamping over a stencil...it makes it easier to press in the chosen areas*** you can see below, that the stencil also acts as a mask to protect the background from the text stamp... now only the leaves have text on them... ***you'll also see that because the paint is OPAQUE... the stenciled leaves cover up the script stamping from the first step... this really puts the script in the background & the leaves out in front*** I used french ultramarine archival on my UNMOUNTED honeycomb background & pressed it on to random areas of the background... and then stamped my saying in jet black archival... one on my MOST FAVORITE uses for tim's detail water brush is for creating tiny dots with any of the distress stains... ***the distress stains work especially well, because they are very fluid...*** to create the gold dots you see below, I applied some tarnished brass distress stain to my craft sheet... picked it up with the detail water brush & tapped the brush sharply against my index finger... this creates AWESOME tiny dots every time... that tiny bit of shimmer really adds another nice layer to the background... ***I also use the metallic stains to add an edge to my art... you'll notice that in the last photo*** next I wanted to jazz up the art parts base, so I used black soot paint to paint 2 art parts tag toppers... I like to tap some paint onto the tag toppers, then spread the paint with my fingers, when painting art parts... the result is a beautiful MATTE ... LOVE IT! now here's where I lost it...& forgot a photo... I painted an art parts flower with wild honey distress paint, I did 2 layers... when the paint was dry, I stamped my herringbone background over the flower with rusty hinge distress ink & dried it... below is the assembled flower... with the art parts flower as the base... I heated the clicker cutts flower to soften the CFA material & shaped the flower... then glued it to the coordinating art parts flower... to create the center, I glued this black Blossom Bucket scallop circle to this Blossom Bucket... OOPS...can't find that link... the next photo shows all the layers in the background... it looks very dimensional, but it's completely flat... so... this would be a GREAT background technique for art journal pages... and here's the finished piece... with the tag toppers glued to the back of the art parts base... if you haven't played with these paints yet... prepare to be amazed... they are totally UNLIKE any other paints I have used... a bit of business before I go... I had several questions/comments about the last post & where to find the stamp I used... if you click on the blue links in each post, you'll be magically transported right to the highlighted product... that stamp is from the heirloom art set... I hope this tutorial has inspired YOU to... grab your distress paints to make art! wendy
