Cards done using my own gel printed papers.

Here are some cards that I did using my own gel printed papers and some @eileenhull stencils and dies.

I started by printing my own papers using my favorite plates from @gelpress . I used recycled paper from my printer. I added many layers of acrylic paint.

Using Eileen Hull’s Watercolour Flowers& Lattice Layered Stencils from @sizzix , I added some flower details.

With my gel printed papers I did some 3d flowers using Eileen Hull’s Thinlits Die - Painterly Blooms & Background.

For the cards background besides using my gel printed papers, I used Eileen’s Faux Postage Thinlits.

( All the cards will go inside the Treasured Box that I showed on a previous post ).

The Green Mixed Media Treasure Box

I am a huge fan of boxes ever since I was a little girl. I remember my mom arguing with me for always saving al kind of boxes. I felt like I had to adopt every single box that I touch ...lol.

When I discovered that you can actually make your own box, It was like in a dream.

That is what I love about Eileen Hull's Scoreboard Dies from Sizzix. You can make your own box out of so many materials.

I started this box by first designing my own paper. I used recycled paper from my printer. Using a @gelpress printing plate with acrylic paint I started printing my own paper. I added layers over layers of paint creating different patterns.

When done with the background layers I added some gold flower details, using acrylic paint and Eileen Hull's Watercolour Flowers & Lattice Stencil.

Using the same paper and Eileen Hull's Painterly Blooms & Background Thinlits Die by Sizzix , I did some 3d flowers. It is amazing how they look. So much texture, color and patterns.

With the remaining paper I did some cards to go with the Treasure Box. It is a great present for that special one. I really enjoyed making this project.

Detail photos of the cards will be included in the next post.

2023 Round Up for Eileen Hull Designs.

This is my first time here trying to choose my favorite 3 (oh yeah !!! only 3 ) projects done as a Team Member for Eileen Hull Designs. It was not easy at all. I couldn't decide. So I went kind of random....and the winners are ......

Let's start with the top left one... The Collage Fodder Organizer vol. 1 . Here I mixed my two passions , Mixed Media and making books. For the Book I used Eileen Hull Passport Journal Die and the Thinlits Tiled Alphanumeric. Both from Sizzix. I did all the inserts out of recycled printer's paper. I use GelPress plates to add teh color and patterns. I decided to make 3 signatures. Attached them using some elastic for easy access and easy removal when needed. This is also a great way of storing your mixed media printed papers.

Now let's go to the top right project ... The Romantic Box. For the Box I used : Slotted Treat Box , Skinny Mini Elements, Envelope, Foldeer & Flower dies .

For the flowers I used the Envelope, Foldeer & Flower die. I did assembled the flower to make them 3D.

And the las project, the one to the bottom right ..The Sun Flower Mini Note Book. For this I used the Card Case die. For the flower I used Eileen's Sun Flower die . For the inside I added a small Composition notebook that I decorated using napkins as well as I did for the whole project. Thank to Eileen's for sending such a beautiful collection of napkins.

There is so much going on for 2024 that you don't want to missed. We are already working on new project designs.

Flower Bouquet - 12” X 12” Mixed Media Canvas.

The goal was to draw flowers with a childlike look. Nothing fancy or real looking. I did some flowers using vellum and others on watercolor paper. I used watercolor on both. I also used @winsorandnewton Art Masking Fluid for special watercoloring effect. @posca_usa pens were part of the artwork for outline and hight lights. From @ranger_ink I used @dinawakley Scribble Sticks for adding details and dimension. The acrylic paints were from @decoart . For the background I added some texture using @liquitexofficial Modeling Paste. Also one of my favorite product @gelpress printing plates for that special look. For that special touch I added some fabric for the tablecloth.

This was a fun and creative project. So relaxing.
