Our New GD Amy Lassiter and her amazing layout

Czas by poznać naszą czwartą Gościnną Projektantkę - Amy Lassiter. Amy będzie nam towarzyszyć przez kolejne 3 miesiące. Dziś przygotowała dla nas piękny layout, ale najpierw zobaczmy co opowiedziała nam o sobie :)
It's time to meet our 4th Guest Designer- Amy Lassiter. Amy will be with us for next 3 months. Today she has a beautiful layout for us but first let's see what she told us about herself :)

***

I am a wife to my best friend from college, and the mother to three daughters. I recently relocated to Des Moines, Iowa, USA, after living in Kansas for 38 years. I currently work as a mixed media artist and designer, creating with layers and an eclectic, free, and soulful vibe.

Hello creatives! I am very excited to share my first project 
as a guest designer for 13 Arts! Today I am sharing a layout I created 
using a photo of me when I had a bad day. My bad days have gone since 
making a life change, and now I am happy to share a "down time" that was
 good to look at in retrospect. :) 

For this layout, I began by cutting out a square in the middle of 
the Today, tomorrow, always paper, and flipping the square over to show 
the pattern on the opposite side. Since I turned the paper at an angle, I
 filled the open areas with bits from a vintage book page. 
 

I created a background using many different 13 Arts mediums, a brayer, palette knife, stenciling, and stamping. Layering chipboard wrapped with copper wire,and metal bits and bobs around the photo was a good way to draw the eye to the strange black and white image. :) I added a few 13 Arts stickers, to create my title, as well as the wings to add a bit of softness.

I really like this layout, and how unique and different it is...it was a joy to create with such wonderful products. Thank you Aida for the opportunity, and I can't wait to share another creation next month!

Fly Away by Jelissa

Hello paper folks!

I'm up on the 13@rts blog today, sharing my first page with a black background. I had this dandelion photo in my stash for about a year now but never found the inspiration to scrap it until I wanted to try working with black patterned paper. 

I'm using papers from the "Fly Away" and "All is Love" collections from 13@rts. To create the contrast, I did masking with acrylic modelling paste, stamping in grey chalk ink and gesso instead. There was very little misting, and only in the parts where the colour can be visible.

Some close-ups:

For the colours to show, I created splatters with the mists by wetting the brush from the bottle. I also used Ayeeda matt paints very lightly watered as these have more body and leave a more solid colour on the dark background. For the papers in my layers and the chipboard, I patted on modelling paste with a palette knife to create texture.

My title is a piece from the "Fly Away" sticker sheet. I distressed it with black ink and brushed on some gesso. The paper roses were dabbed with Ayeeda Matte Paint in Caramel and bled the colours with a small amount of water. I also fussy cut out some wings and tucked them under my photo.

Bee a Queen - a video tutorial by Olga Heldwein

Hello 13@rts fans!

Its Olga here !

Witajcie fani 13@rts !

To ja Olga.

Today I'm coming to you with a quick canvas project. Everyone sometimes needs to make something easy , quick and fun. In this case I take my mists and have some fun.
Dziś będzie szybki blejtram. Każdy czasem potrzebuje zrobić coś prostego, szybkiego tak po prostu dla zabawy. W takich wypadkach ja odprężam się mgiełkując.

Good background is here important. First thing is good background preparation. Every surface takes color differently so you have to prepare it. The best, easiest and quickest is Gesso preparation. even if at the beggining you have different background like metal, paper, wood canvas in any combination, when you give them a layer of gesso you get equal surface.
Dobre tło jest tu ważne. Zaczynam od porządnego przygotowania go. Różne powierzchnie maja różną chłonność , różnie przyjmują kolory więc trzeba je przygotować.  W takim wypadku najszybszą  i najprostsza metodą jest gessowanie. Nawet jeśli na początku tło było bardzo różnorodne z papieru, drewna płótna metalu możesz je ujednolicić za pomocą gessa. Już cienka warstwa  sprawia ze masz idealny podkład.

Now you can play with mist. Have fun, don't be afraid. Ayeeda mists are water based.. It means when you dont like what you get, you can always use water to remove colors and start all over again .
Teraz możesz zacząć mgiełkowanie . Nie bój się. Mgiełki Ayeeda są wodorozcieńczalne oznacza to że nawet jak coś pójdzie nie tak możecie psiknąć woda i zetrzeć , zacząć od nowa .

So have fun, don't be scared and enjoy creative process, colors stains, leaks and blending on colors.
Bawcie się dobrze psikajcie , chlapcie  mieszajcie  róbcie plamy i zacieki eksperymentujcie do woli.

So today I have for you canvas which I made just for fun. Its a simple project. Few embellishments and lots of fun with mists. I made video for you, so you can check out how I'm making my creative fun :)

Przechodząc do Meritum mam dla was mały pszczeli blejtram i filmik z mojego procesu kreatywnego zrobienie go zajęło mi 45 minut i była to czysta frajda z psikaniem i chlapaniem.
