Hi Everybody.....My name is Lynne Forsythe and I hail from the small but BEAUTIFUL state of NH! I have been creative all my life but was introduced to the paper crafting industry about 5 years ago. I began making scrapbook pages then progressed to card making and now have emersed myself in the Mixed Media genre. I work for my LSS along with teaching classes at various stores and events. It's an honor and a priveledge to get to share my creations with you this week!!
When creating, I love to alter what ever medium I am working with, paper, fabric, ribbon/lace.....with COLOR. I think that is why I absolutely fell in love the LuminArte line of products which sooo compliment the rest of the Creative Imaginations offerings!
For my first project I chose to make a card.
I began by spritzing the canvas card with a mixture of Radiant Rain Shimmering Mists.
Butternut
Spanish Moss
Persimmon
I then pulled out a couple papers from the IOD ~ Preposterous line
Whimsical
Playful
I diecut a flower from the papers, when finished I misted it with
Butternut ~ Radiant Rain
I created the leaves for my flower from one of the
Black ATC's
Do you see the YUMMMIE shimmery green on the leaves???
I acheived that look by mixing up a batch of Primary Elements
Costa Rica ~ Olive Green
I finished off the card with
Antique Words
Once I began playing with the Primary Elements....I wanted to try more things!!
So I pulled out a
Black ATC
and let the creative process flow!
Now, before I go any further....
The concoction that I used was
Primary Element Colors and
Glaze Medium.
This time I added Primary Elements
Majestic
to the mix!
I painted it on a paper flower,
Mixed it with Olive Green,
I dipped a canvas flower into a watered down version,
Painted with the watered down version on the
Paint It! ~ Umbrella
Dipped paper in it
Tried stamping with it
(would have work had it not been a fluted surface)
still loved the result.
Finished up with leaves cut from a piece of
Kraft ATC
and painted with the Primary Elements ~ Olive Green.
I hope you have enjoyed my creative adventure!
If you have any questions.....feel free to ask!!
