Dreamweaver Stencils with Tim Holtz Distress Paint

Good morning!  Today is the first Thursday of the month and time for a new challenge at Dreamweaver Stencils.  Its all about Holiday gift giving this month.  AND this week we are partnering with Ranger Ink using Tim Hotlz's Distress Paints.  We are also partnering with Beacon all this month.


Today I upcycled a Tazo Tea tin for a ready made gift box.  I painted the top of the tin with the Distress paint then set that aside to dry while I worked on the rest of the tin.


I pulled out my Gelli plate and brayered some Distress paint across that, laid down some stencils and transfered the monoprint onto sticky back canvas.


The ornament die was cut from Tim Holtz tissue paper that was adhered t mixed media paper using Fast Finish from Beacon then painted.


I added part of the Joyeux Noel stencil on top, stenciled onto painted canvas with Red Label paste.  This was then added to the front of the tin after tying some Tim Holtz Crinkle ribbon around the top of the ornament.




Supplies:
Joyeux Noel, Large Flourish, Big Dots stencils (Dreamweaver Stencils)
Red Label embossing Paste (Dreamweaver)
Mowed Lawn, Evergreen Bough, Pine Needles, Picked Raspberry, Festive Berries, Aged Mahogany Distress Paint (Ranger)
Claudine Helmuth Sticky back canvas (Ranger)
Tim Holtz Carved Ornaments die (Sizzix)
Gelli plate
Brayer
Tazo tea tin

Here's who's playing today, so be sure to go leave some love:

Gelli printing in my Dylusions Mini Journal

Here's a page for you that I did in my Mini Journal a few weeks ago but never got around to blogging about for some reason. 


I began by playing around with my Gelli plate for the first time...yeah me!!  On top of the Gelli background I stamped a small border in Archival then added some cut outs from new Dylusions sets...This Old House, Day of the Heads, and Pin Up Queen.  I stamped my images on watercolor paper then colored them with Dylusions ink.

Hope you enjoy!  I'm at a weekend of classes with Dyan Reaveley, Wendy Vecchi, Canvas Corp, Petaloo, Maya Road and more!  Pics to come soon!
