Tiffany Johnson Creative #100daysartplay Challenge - Day 14



Today is Day 14 of Tiffany Johnson Creative #100daysartplay challenge, the final day of Week 2 with a prompt of "Stencils".

For the background design, on a white card, I have used three shades of Distress Oxide:  Squeezed Lemonade, Twisted Citron and Mermaid Lagoon. I blended the colours to that they were lighter on the top right, blending to darker in the bottom left hand corner. Over the top of that I lay the Funky Fossil Designs "Cellular Stencil" and applied "Night Sky" Ranger Archival ink through the stencil.

For the eye, I used Ranger "Jet Black" Ranger Archival Ink through the Visible Image "Eye Contact Stencil" over the top of the patterned background. 

The actual eye area didn't show up too much, so I decided to sort that by using the same ink and stencil on a piece of white card and fussy cutting it. I then repeated the process for the central iris area, painting it with two shades of Distress Oxide Inks, using "Tumbled Glass" and "Salvaged Patina".  I then added some yellow Posca Pen to the eye too.

Finally, I mounted the card on to a piece of black paper and then on to a piece of white card, adding a Lavinia Stamps word sticker (from their Sentiment Sticker set 6), saying "Look Up" to the bottom right hand corner.

  2. The stamped VI eye really stands out with the fussy cutting of the eye area itself Sam, and I love the colour of the pretty stencilling in the background which pops on the black card mounted onto a white base card..a brilliant design. x
