OK folks it time for my Second Team Showcase for Lone Wolf Designs.
This time I'm all about getting Dylusional....
If you haven't tried Dyan Reaveley's ink sprays, stencils and stamps then do yourself a favor and order some today. They are so much fun to work with and they produce incredible effects that are hard to achieve using other products. All her designs cant help but make you smile!
This is the stamp set I will be using for this showcase.
Pondering Petunia DYR34483
I will be using plain card stock and manila tags for today "Ghosting" example. Her products can be used on all types of dry paper mediums tags, card stock, cards, journal pages, etc...
Make sure you are working on a Inkssentials Craft Sheet by Ranger.
Begin by choosing colors at random just spray pools of color all over your card stock.
There is no right or wrong way to do this. Just spay until you are Happy!
.
Next place a stencil of your choice over the inked card stock and spray liberally with water.
The stencil I'm using is called Chequered Dots DYS33981.
Then using some paper towel gently blot away the water from the open areas of the stencil. Make sure you get the water blotted from all the openings.
When you remove the stencil you will see the "Ghost" image of the stencil. This is a great way to add depth to all your projects. You can spray and repeat this technique several times to get multiple layers of depth if you like.
Not wanting to waste any of the ink I like to use a tag to swipe up all that inky goodness off the craft sheet.
These are nice to have on hand for any future projects. You will have a tag with the first background layer already there.
This is a completed project I made for my art journal using these techniques.
I used Copic markers to color the stamped image.
Being the frugal crafter I even save the paper towels to use in collage art pieces. I just love getting to use every bit of the ink I can.
I hope this has inspired you to give Dyan's products a try. You wont be disappointed.

Beautiful page featuring this technique! Have you seen Dyan's Halloween stamps? How fun would it be to use Dyan's stencils to make a ghoulish journal?

Love that "ghost" stencil technique. I'm going to have to try this! Great job! Thanks for your contributions to LWD Design Team.
ReplyDeleteThe ghosting technique is cool. You also blended the colors very well. When I spray a bunch of the colors I end up with mud!!!
