I believe all his designs and stamp units are nice, however these two – from my perspective – are particularly nice to make use of alongside plenty of totally different smaller sized discovered objects.

And the way nice was my pleasure after I came upon, a number of the stamp designs completely matched the dimensions of the “Robo Bar” slicing dies set he designed for Spellbinders (one in all my oldest dies units from my stash and nonetheless one in all my favourites)!

So when all of the designs, merchandise, paints and instruments you utilize, go collectively so effectively and so simply, the venture can solely prove nice! After all I’ve picked the color scheme I really feel most at dwelling with, however the design of my venture works in every other color combo simply as properly. Solely be sure to use paints (not more than 5) that change in tonal worth (that attain from darker color tones to lighter ones) and make one in all them a contrasting color (like the intense turquoise towards the earthy tones on my venture). I actually hope my venture will encourage you to create your very personal model! I believe you’ll particularly love the background approach I’ve used as it’s so fast and straightforward to do, and offers nice outcomes!

The one brief wrestle I had, when approaching this venture, was to determine which background (and background approach) was greatest to construct a worthy (however not too “noisy”) stage for all the attractive stamp designs and located objects. Going for a flat background with none texture would make taking part in round and dealing on it with all of the beloved bits ‘n items I had in thoughts a lot simpler – however it could nonetheless should be a background that would offer visible sweet.

As you may see I had already chosen the discovered objects that I assumed would work greatest with Seth’s stamp designs. Ultimately I used six totally different colors of his Fresco End Chalk Acrylic paints vary (I do know: the picture exhibits seven, however I discovered I undoubtedly did not want the darkest one and you can even slender that quantity right down to 4 and nonetheless get an ideal end result – so long as you retain the one contrasting color within the combine!).

The guide field I had determined to change was a present from my sister (she is aware of I really like packing containers of all types). As an alternative of priming the quilt (that had a boring print on it) with white Gesso, I made a decision to make use of a lower to measurement sheet of heavy combined media paper as my base and completely glue that to the field lid for starters. I picked a really easy paper that I knew would take all of the element of the stamped photographs.

Retaining the stamp designs in thoughts (and in sight) I performed round with my discovered objects to search out spots the place they’d create visible curiosity but in addition nonetheless depart sufficient area for the stamped photographs. The picture exhibits just one doable design (I at all times repeat this arranging step a number of occasions throughout the inventive course of as generally (nah! – really very often) completely happy accidents or modifications of concepts happen (after which need and have to be embraced).
