~~~ My Girl ~~~
February 2020 Design Team Page by Patricia Basson

They say "All good things come to an End...." and sadly this will be my last post as an 13@rts Designer. I had the best time designing with AmAzing products!!!! Thank you for having my Aida and all the very best to the new Team members....



For this page I used two sheets from the Summer Rhapsody collection. One was used for the background and the other torn and used on the sides. I distressed all the edges and painted them with Black Rainbow Duo mixed with water. Also used Clear Gesso before all the paints. 
I mixed Yellow Amber Rainbow Duo with Modeling Paste and put it through the Vintage Wreath Stencil. 





For the background colour I sprayed the Yellow Amber and Pearl Black mists. I also used Amber Color Glow with water...It is the pinkish glow one can see in the photos!
The net Chipboard was painted with black Gesso.









I sprayed the chipbard with Pearl Black Mist and embossed it with Deep Sea, Rocky Road and Vintage Beeswax Embossing Powders. The title was sprayed with Yellow Amber Mist.
I added some flowers and Black Lux Crystals and used the Splash Brush to add splatters of the Silver Glitter.



All of the products and many more are available in the 13@rts on-line shop





If you're alone, I'll be your shadow.
 If you want to cry, I'll be your shoulder. 
If you want a hug, I'll be your pillow.
 If you need to be happy, I'll be your smile. 
But anytime you need a friend, I'll just be me.

Life is a Verb ~ Layout with Sandi Clarkson

Good morning, creative friends! 
Sandi here with you today sharing my most recent layout for the 13 Arts blog.


I had been feeling inspired to work with the "B" side of Paper Birds and flowers paper, In Bloom. 
That yellow damask-like paper is so gorgeous! I had planned to use that along with predominately teal. But as always with the creative process, I decided to add in some areas of purple along with the teal from the Watercolor set 16 pans - set of watercolors to pull out the purple in my granddaugher's shirt. 




I also fussy cut some of the peach flowers from the In bloom Elements A4 sheet. So with the yellow, teal, purple and peach, I had to be very careful not to get a pastel Spring-y effect. I tried to accomplish that by using some more intense shades of the watercolors by not adding as much water.  At that point it was lovely but I wanted "rust" to ground it. So, taking the easy way, I sprinkled some of my brown Rainbow Color Brown and then spritzed it with water. Some areas are still powdery but actually since I like texture, that is more than fine by me!




As usual, I first coated my papers with Clear Gesso, then added some Gesso white - acrylic primer 500 ml around my focal area. I did some random stamping with brown ink using the Avril stamp A7. Next I created some texture by pushing Modeling Paste through the Stencil masks HIS TIME. This is when I began doing my color work. What I really like about our modeling paste is that it stays a bright white unless you have already mixed it with color.



Then I began adding layers to my photo with the paper elements below. I am proudest of my fussy cut blooms because it's not my favorite thing to do when I'm in the midst of a project. That is what is nice about our ephemera packs! However, fussy cutting is fun when you are just relaxing and maybe watching TV, movie or a video.



I finished with a few embellishments, some 3D balls, Ecru Sisal, rhinestones from my stash and then some splattering with my paint colors and Gesso white.

I hope you like it!

Birthday card for Grandma by Monika

Witajcie! Ja r贸wnie偶 mia艂am przyjemno艣膰 poci膮膰 nowe i pachn膮ce jeszcze drukarni膮 papiery. Na pocz膮tek wybra艂am bardzo romantyczn膮 i kobiec膮 kolekcj臋 Rosalie. Wykona艂am kartk臋 i torebk臋 na drobny upominek dla Babci mojego m臋偶a z okazji Jubileuszu 80 urodzin. Chcia艂am zrobi膰 dla niej co艣 wyj膮tkowego, mam nadziej臋, 偶e mi si臋 uda艂o.

Welcome! I also had the pleasure of cutting the new collections. For start I chose very romantic and feminine Rosalie collection. I made a card and a small gift bag for my husband's grandmother on the occasion of her 80th birthday. I wanted to do something special for her, I hope I succeeded.



Czy Wy r贸wnie偶 czekali艣cie na napisy do kartek w j臋zyku polskim? Ju偶 nie musicie d艂u偶ej czeka膰, poniewa偶 w艂a艣nie zape艂ni艂y sklepowe p贸艂ki.

Have you also been waiting for the new words for cardmaking? You don't have to wait any longer because the shelves have just filled up with those.


Po raz pierwszy w sprzeda偶y dost臋pne s膮 papiery w formacie A6 - pokocha艂am je od pierwszego wejrzenia! S膮 to bloczki sk艂adaj膮ce si臋 z 24 jednostronnych papier贸w, wewn膮trz wzory r贸偶ni膮 si臋 zupe艂nie od tych, kt贸re znajdziecie na papierach 30 x 30 cm i 15 x 15 cm. Do ozdobienia torebki wykorzysta艂am w艂a艣nie motywy z bloczku A6.

For the first time, A6 format papers are available for sale - I loved them at first sight! These are blocks includes of 24 one-sided papers, inside the patterns are completely different from those found on 12x12 and 6x6 papers. I used the motifs from the A6 block to decorate the bag.


Mam nadziej臋, 偶e nieco Was zainspirowa艂am do si臋gni臋cia po t膮 wspania艂膮 kolekcj臋. Je艣li jeszcze nie zagl膮dali艣cie do sklepu to zr贸bcie to koniecznie, czekaj膮 na Was wspania艂e nowo艣ci!

I hope that I have inspired you a little to reach for this wonderful collection. If you have not yet visited the store, do it necessarily, great products are waiting for you!

Witajcie!

Bardzo podoba mi si臋 intensywna czerwie艅 i steampunkowe elementy, kt贸re Aida wykorzysta艂a w papierach. 

Hello! 
It's Marta! Today I'd like to share with you my card made with a new collection- Victoriana. It's perfect for romantic cards or the ones which need a little vintage touch.
I love the vivid red and nice steampunk elements which Aida used on her papers. 



Poprosi艂am j膮 tak偶e o dodanie do kolekcji s艂贸wek przydatnych w kartkach. Teraz mo偶ecie je dosta膰 zar贸wno po angielsku jak i po polsku.
Do kolekcji jest tak偶e pasuj膮ca ephemera, przydatna w budowaniu warstw pracy. 

I asked her to make nice words which may be used on the cards. You can buy them in English or Polish which is great for cardmakers.
The collection includes also ephemera pack which is helpful in building layers.
