Hello dear visitors, welcome to my blog!
Today it´s the first of March - time for a new challenge over at Country View Challenges, and this month it´s my turn to host the challenge! I have chosen the theme: Letters &/or Numbers!
I want to be the letters and/or numbers a little bit prominent on your project.
The possibilities are nearly endless - think of birthday cards, sayings, anniversaries,... - or simply
use them only for being pretty! 😉
This is what I did here. I altered the cover of a little notebook, decorated with many numbers.
Front:
back:
And this is what I did:
I first covered my little notebook with a layer of crackle medium. After it was dry, I painted it with acrylic paint. To enhence the crackles I rubbed antiquing creme white over the surface and wiped away the excess.
Then I stamped a numbers stamp with black staz on ink, added several numbers with black Gesso through a stencil and rubbed some very old rub-on numbers randomly on top.
The front I decorated with tinted gauze, stamped words and some butterflies, I colored with distress inks. Lastly I distressed the edges of the notebook with some red archival ink - and that´s it!
I hope I could inspire you with my little notebook and you will join in with our challenge this month! As usual you have the chance to win a 20 £ voucher for the shop!
I am curious, what you will share!
Thanks for you visit and have a wonderful weekend!
