Here's my project using both company's products!
"Fly" canvas
I knew I wanted to create a mixed media canvas for this project. The stamps inspired me to create with wings in mind (aren't they always showing up in my work?). I used a variety of Faber-Castell's products in this project.
Close up of the Prima canvas page that I colored with Gelatos and stamped with the Big Brush Markers.
This is a sneak peek of a new product that DMC is releasing at the Summer CHA. New crayons and watercolors! I used the crayons as a resist with the watercolors over them.
Gelato stamped butterflies! I drew on the stamp with a silver and black Gelato and stamped! Every other one, I misted with water to create a more intense version.
Drippage and Jellie Dots create lots of color and texture from the coffee sleeve.
See the birdie? I used my template that I drew (from the Prima tote class) over a stamped file folder. I used the Big Brush Marker and 18th Century Proclamation stamp. I created a mist with black and silver and used it over the template. Once dry, I outlined with a PITT artist pen.
Supplies used:
The Rubber Cafe stamps: 18th Century Proclamation & Vintage Treasures
Jellie Dots- Pearl, Cotton Candy, and Terrifically Teal
Faber-Castell products: Gelatos (blues, yellows, black, and silver), PITT Artist Pen in small Black, Big Brush Artist Pen in black, crayons, watercolors
