Over at
Studio L3 this week, the challenge involves creating a piece of guilded Kraft Glassine.... a totally fabulous technique, straight from the book Compendium of Curiosities 2 by the one and only Tim Holtz!! You'll need to grab a copy to see exactly how its done though, not my place to explain here :)
I've used my guilded glassine as a focal circle in this panel...
I coloured the card using Dylusion inks, then added lots of stamping and printing...
The glassine was die cut into a circle shape, and placed so my figure (Zettiology) was highlighted...
I used a phrase from my stash of cut up novels...
I used blue and purple inks on the glassine, and highlighted with turquoise distress ink, to hopefully match up with the background colours!
Its a fab technique, so if you have the instructions why not have a go! Annnnnd...if you enter it into the challenge you could win a $25 gift certificate from the
Funkie Junkie Boutique! How cool is that!!!

Gorgeous colours and I LOVE the Z image - she's brilliant! Nice effect with the glassine, though not sure I can see the gilding - perhaps not visible on the photos? Your usual, great quirky quote finishes it off perfectly, Trish. Fab work and just my cup of tea x
ReplyDeleteThis is a gorgeous piece you have done. Love it!
ReplyDeleteTotally delicious - as always. I so love what you do with your backgrounds and then just putting one main stamped 'item' works sooo well.

You make the most beautiful backgrounds...truly!!! Love this and love the simplistic yet complex way you used the glassine! Fab work!
ReplyDeleteI love all the different ways you've placed circles, and the textural aspects of the glassine add another great element. It all goes together so perfectly with that gorgeously coloured background!
