It is old and beautiful, it has a street called "The Shambles" with preserved Medieval building AMAZING! <div><br /></div><div>Fun fact about Medieval building- Built on narrow streets, timber framed buildings with jettied floors that overhang the street.

To hide the score marks I covered with white cardstock- make sure the paper is glued on the entire surface otherwise when you paint it bubbles appear where it isn't glued down.<div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjs_YyvPZ_-lZ6M3VBlbIXt-cCWS3asYBhDhDW6TYGzA7MwNS9sGgLudOWyATqjufC1VpoBUgekxQEMao8WVAsC4Wxxk8bIjZTmW7NNb57o8I6paJDhOdCCIb5TePTAbF7S6LHCGxrrCwo/s720/10.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="346" data-original-width="720" height="193" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjs_YyvPZ_-lZ6M3VBlbIXt-cCWS3asYBhDhDW6TYGzA7MwNS9sGgLudOWyATqjufC1VpoBUgekxQEMao8WVAsC4Wxxk8bIjZTmW7NNb57o8I6paJDhOdCCIb5TePTAbF7S6LHCGxrrCwo/w400-h193/10.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>Add the details- window frames, door, vents, and molding. Once the whole RV was assembled i painted entire piece with watered down glue.

Add rust. I tinted some texture paint (raw sierra) and used a sturdy brush to apply. I added texture around wheel wells, molding, basically where joints are located. I also feathered out the color from the texture spots. I used Modge Podge dimensional magic to fill in windows, when it dries it looks glass like.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpj62wfGpdpv7Q8F6X82vP4nXCSp_iszbeqJ-drb7tb-l3tcDGFYuMJS-1KpCPOO6SVl4Asia8k6NZ6lVvtOl6ZWAAEggSHIzIiXOD5DsYI81VXApg5HF6D-WQuK7yDcWlNNj9eqg2Fj8/s720/13.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="336" data-original-width="720" height="186" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpj62wfGpdpv7Q8F6X82vP4nXCSp_iszbeqJ-drb7tb-l3tcDGFYuMJS-1KpCPOO6SVl4Asia8k6NZ6lVvtOl6ZWAAEggSHIzIiXOD5DsYI81VXApg5HF6D-WQuK7yDcWlNNj9eqg2Fj8/w400-h186/13.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>To make the dirty windows, i cut ovals out of cardstock and taped onto windows. Then I mixed a light brown paint color, and used a makeup sponge to apply to windows. The key is have paint blended into the sponge no paint globs.<div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiylGaUKTiGlJNv41nhA-Jh6fslwAwKihtGNRRTaMD3I5EU8Bx_NuDQMvfJap8P8ntupZtcFh_l7bt7maey8gkPkzU8oTHw00i7Anzq6GQ9GzKTG1W8v1Fkb-wIanorkHgstofauJYuwZs/s720/14.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="471" data-original-width="720" height="261" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiylGaUKTiGlJNv41nhA-Jh6fslwAwKihtGNRRTaMD3I5EU8Bx_NuDQMvfJap8P8ntupZtcFh_l7bt7maey8gkPkzU8oTHw00i7Anzq6GQ9GzKTG1W8v1Fkb-wIanorkHgstofauJYuwZs/w400-h261/14.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>I finished the rust by adding more color, red oxide and dark brown. The color is added in the textured areas then I spray with water to remove any paint edges. This gives the rust more life like appearance and depth. Next add dirt on RV body, used the light brown and sponge for this too. The final touch is add mini lights and wreath.<div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivyqf-cqOg_piIAMJWTkDt1VL3ie8-QEAy_OE-3vLOYAprPKOQy2moOTBz7pyTYIU0yvY4JiZF-pFsM7zdCcsemZQ799Culi7pQLOAlUeqR343Rn6Ad9ZFLpbxYg4Prbm1bkwpD3zrtzU/s720/5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="508" data-original-width="720" height="283" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivyqf-cqOg_piIAMJWTkDt1VL3ie8-QEAy_OE-3vLOYAprPKOQy2moOTBz7pyTYIU0yvY4JiZF-pFsM7zdCcsemZQ799Culi7pQLOAlUeqR343Rn6Ad9ZFLpbxYg4Prbm1bkwpD3zrtzU/w400-h283/5.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>Some close ups.<div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0-SOQqrf8-KgDeQuI9HRuR9RSFy4f-W-qvLaWBeS4qY5tMd5zmWyeVct5IRrgZjXRuiqpDF73Jnk5-WLQirWyX2QU1yibYMH2wIrT9cjGK1QOfwrMH22ShX_LYB5B7uPaa7wskUz4dWs/s960/7.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="960" data-original-width="720" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0-SOQqrf8-KgDeQuI9HRuR9RSFy4f-W-qvLaWBeS4qY5tMd5zmWyeVct5IRrgZjXRuiqpDF73Jnk5-WLQirWyX2QU1yibYMH2wIrT9cjGK1QOfwrMH22ShX_LYB5B7uPaa7wskUz4dWs/w300-h400/7.jpg" width="300" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRu_5elwCTpsa5cSgAnxwGFbXYPMhJFqmNA11cApQ-CBUizZnhJHMbro2Xn0SZ6Vh-XO0ib_q1xpTdKeFyT0N801dGqET0pSf9zrki-HmYE0zvvnsysreRKMr3BpUOv8KeGpfcZ5ggNKo/s960/6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="960" data-original-width="720" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRu_5elwCTpsa5cSgAnxwGFbXYPMhJFqmNA11cApQ-CBUizZnhJHMbro2Xn0SZ6Vh-XO0ib_q1xpTdKeFyT0N801dGqET0pSf9zrki-HmYE0zvvnsysreRKMr3BpUOv8KeGpfcZ5ggNKo/w300-h400/6.jpg" width="300" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3oQas-xJLQBaAXurRYx2eT9YYVCV8EqUsrxP2F90_xvxfzUGdCIlRohFNtVIQUd_yXOkNJPyaiQXkUd9sM1AwUQAt0BL0iQZnzbXy1bpEG6X5Gese2tbp2th_qsqOUQf35uo3hcMNM2A/s720/8.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="540" data-original-width="720" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3oQas-xJLQBaAXurRYx2eT9YYVCV8EqUsrxP2F90_xvxfzUGdCIlRohFNtVIQUd_yXOkNJPyaiQXkUd9sM1AwUQAt0BL0iQZnzbXy1bpEG6X5Gese2tbp2th_qsqOUQf35uo3hcMNM2A/w400-h300/8.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div><br /><div><br /></div><div><div><br /><p><br /></p></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>Boozybearhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18107799921607916824noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1757137931587063853.post-46874034699046673872021-06-21T20:08:00.000-07:002021-06-21T20:08:13.550-07:00Folio Junk Journal<p> I really love the Tim Holtz folios, I used the hinge to make 4 individual folios and glued them together to make a junk journal.

The building didn't lay flat against the wall so i added the pipe detail, which i love. Here i just used a straw, painted with black gesso, then metallic brass and antiqued with brown.

Some of the windows have shingles like the building peaks. I painted shingles with a green hue to have them look old and mossy.

I started really strong, build the ship right away make the circus tents but then I slowed... The painting needed to be completed in several stages to allow for drying time, figuring out construction of sails etc... Finally I stopped procrastinating and got it done.

I wanted the tents to have a fabric look so I covered them with light modeling paste to add texture. Paint the tents.<div><br /></div><div>To highlight the texture on the tents, painted with watered down brown paint allow to dry slightly then wipe off the excess. The brown settles into the grooves, nooks and crannies. Finally dry brush with white paint, the white hits the high edges and highlights the texture.

3D gas pump with pull out album. I designed a whole bunch of garage inspired chipboard to use on with the album. This kit sold out at<a href="https://treasuredmemories.typepad.com/"> Treasured Memories </a>in One DAY, One DAY and they ordered 15 more so thank you scrapbookers.<br />
<br />
I used pattern paper in black/grey tones then added the color with watercolor paints. I love that the color it is muted and you can see the pattern in behind still. Of course add some distress ink for that old vintage feel.<br />
<br />

I like to add glossy accents or mod podge dimensional magic into windows so they look like glass.<br />

Love this suitcase, i have added stitching details that really make it pop. Since this is samsonite luggage I wanted it to have that glossy smooth look so i also added mod podge dimensional magic on it.<br />
<br />

I created coffee, lamps, radios, pumpkins and more to match Mintay Cozy Evening paperline. I think the pumpkins are my favorite LOVE LOVE the detailing in the stems and leaves. Used stitching technique for pumpkin details.<br />
<br />

The yarn balls look fantastic and again used the stitching technique to make the details. The stacked coffee cups are indivdual pieces that fit together like a puzzle.<br />

I love stacked suitcases so i figured lets make some chipboard designs. At first i wasn't 100% sold on how they looked but, once i painted, distressed, inked, and added latches- in love with them.<br />
<br />

You could paint the suitcases any color you want to match whatever project you are looking on<br />
<br />
I used Mintay Haromony Papers- This is my first time working with these brand and I love it. They have a paper embellishment 12x12 page with great emphemera.<br />

First i paint chipboard, allow to dry completely (I like to dry overnight). Lightly sand, then ink (I used vintage photo distress ink) Wipe off excess ink, the ink will settle into sanded portions, and wipe off painted portions. All latches painted gold then glued on. You could distress them too but they are super tiny so i didn't bother.<br />

But what i love is the imagery, created a whole Victorian Steampunk era with fairies and other magical beings!!! How fantastic is that. So here is my take<br />

Fairy wings, bowler hat, piping, and gears just a few of my favorite things. (who just sang the song in their head)<br />

So i painted the wings on watercolor paper with oxide distress ink, then drew in the wing details with black gel pen. I found creating these type of illustrations very relaxing, i want to do some large scale ones next. I would like to do a watercolor illustration using the posters of Alphonse Mucha. If you don't know his work its worth looking up.<br />
<br />
Lantern is chipboard, with painted watercolor paper behind to look like it is light up.<br />

Some piping, i paint a base color of gold then layer turquoise, rust, and brown on top for that rusted patina look. I didn't like this when i first painted, but when i see how the pipes look in photos I LOVE. Funny how that works.<br />

Some rub ons for the background, love me some rub ons. For the border first i painted black then embossed with Lindy's Tannenbaum Green Gold- the color and shimmer is easier to see with a black base.<br />

I created this 10"x10" canvas.<br />
The background is watercolor paper colored with <a href="https://www.lindysgang.com/collections/sprays/products/moonlit-mulberry">Lindy's Moonlit Mulberry</a> and <a href="https://www.lindysgang.com/collections/starburst-shimmer-sprays/products/cape-cod-coral">Cape Cod Coral</a>.<br />
Distress the edge and ink with vintage photo and ground espresso distress ink. Then glue watercolor paper onto brown painted canvas. Dry.<br />
<br />

I don't know why but i forgot to take a picture of the completed background. I drew on a floral branch and leaves, then painted with watercolor paints. This was very relaxing, turned on some Elementary and painted away great way to spend an evening, should have had a glass of wine with it. Once I finished painting I applied crackle paste and allow to dry overnight.<br />

Gears and winders are made with Finnabair mould, painted with brown and green paste and once dried spray with Lindy's <a href="https://www.lindysgang.com/collections/sprays/products/van-dyke-sepia">Van Dyke Sepia</a>. Adds a little shimmer.<br />

Layer in some tags, used Tim Holtz ribbon sprayed with Lindy's Van Dyke Sepia to color. I saturated several strands of ribbon differently so there would be color variation in ribbon, finally rip and tear up ribbon.<br />

I have missed just creating! No worrying if i have enough for one class, if there are too many steps etc... So I saw the Stamperia sea world mould with an octopus and scruba helmet and thought i can do that. So here we are<br />

I used my chipboard helmet from octopus piece then drew legs onto watercolor paper. I painted legs with watercolor paint and distress oxide ink, drew in details with black pen. Love how these turned out.<br />

The key to watercolor i have discovered is you need to be patience thin wash of color, dry, thin wash of color until you get the depth you want and shading.<br />
I used ground espresso, wild honey,and pumice stone disatress oxide ink and orange watercolor paint.<br />
<br />

Painted the helmet with bronze and gold acrylic paint, antiqued with brown acrylic paint then added some rust with red oxide paint. I glued black cardstock behind the helmet then filled the center with glossy accents so it looks like glass.<br />

The background was created with Lindys' tainted teal, maidenhair fern green on watercolor paper. I inked the edges then added water spots, rub ons. I think the fish is one of my favorite things- i cut out from some old paper inked edges and covered with glossy accents.<br />
<br />

Embossed the border frames with Lindys midnight teal. Painted black chipboard pieces (just some random pieces in my stash) gold acrylic paint and left some plain. I used pop dots and chipboard for depth.<br />
<br />
I have taken the week off to create hopefully it is a fruitful week.<br />

I cut words out of cardstock with my silhouette, the images inside are photos from Vegas. So yes photos but in an unusual way.<br />
