{My DT work for DS4J}
Hi again! As promised yesterday, I'm back to show you my latest artwork using Digistamps4Joy digi image. Our artist Riette has drawn five new digi images and they are now available in the shop.
The image I used is named Daisy Bucket. Click here for more info.

Supplies: DS4j digi image, Kaisercraft brick template, Alpha gesso & modeling paste, Copic Sketch, Buncho watercolor, Versafine black ink pad, Staz-on brown ink pad, Micia brown ink pad, Pelikan Krakelee Antique Varnish (crackle medium), quote by Helen Keller (computer generated), Carla Craft leave punch, black gel pen and paper serviette for texture
Some up-close photos:
I used crackle medium for the pots and bricks to crack them up.
Paper serviette is one medium I love using to create texture. Some punched leaves adhered and doodle for highlight.
I have chosen a color palette by Colette from Cosmic Strawberry who picked bright summery colors. Isn't that lovely sunny colors?
I am also inspired by May Flowers challenge at The Mixed Media Challenge Blog. I love flowers and gardening so to speak. When I don't plant one in the garden, I plant one on paper :-) I think it's easier to do gardening on paper or canvas than doing it for real, lol. Well however I love gardening and spent a week or so reformatting my lawn back in January and maintain the greenery until we get torrential rain throughout April that leads me to sit indoor and play with paints than soil {smile}.
I am also entering a new challenge hosted by Pamellia Johnson whom I came to know while commenting her wonderful creations. She created a new mixed media challenge named Anything But Cute which is full of awesome projects by her design team. Click here to have a look at their first challenge Vintage Garden.

Lastly I am heading to Frilly and Funkie to enter my artwork in their Snap, Crackle, Crackle! challenge.
That's it for today. I have had so much fun being messy lately and planning to continue the fun tonight if mojo doesn't fly away.
Thank you for visiting me today and I truly appreciate the comments you leave behind. Until the morning after, take care and have a nice day.
Hugs and smiles,
love the brick texture and the sentiment
ReplyDeleteWow, what a beautiful journal page! Your brickwork is amazing, you achieved such a wonderful texture! The colour palette is such a perfect fit for a garden scene and I just love your sentiment and all the added foliage!!

Asmah, I love your bricked garden! I agree that it is much easier to garden on paper than in the yard! Although, you have not made this lovely work of art look easy! Your colors are fabulous, and that brick wall is just yummy with all it's charming texture! And your leaves are punched????!!!! and then doodled to perfection! Very inspirational, and I'm so going to have to steal (borrow) that idea! (I never use my punches!).
ReplyDeleteThank you for your lovely comment about the Design Team's inspirational pieces!
Thank you so much for linking this beauty up to our Vintage Garden challenge at Anything But Cute! Hugs!
