Making Faces


I stamped 3 styles of faces onto various different bases, ie matt card, glossy card and different thickness's of tissue paper.


Then I played with some backgrounds using silver mirri card, embossing folders, alcohol inks and treasure gold.


Then black card, embossing folders, metallic pan pastels and treasure gold.


And created these. Here they are in more detail below.


Image from T!m Holtz Classics #5 set, coloured with portfolio pastels on white matt card. Background embossed script coloured with metallic PP's and a piece of embossed mirri card and words added.


Left - Sunset and Lemonade alcohol inks onto glossy card, pieces of coloured cd added to decorate.
Middle - coloured with distress marker pens, ripped and posca pen doodling added.
Right - coloured with portfolio pastels, ripped and edged in black pen. Piece of blue coloured acetate over eye.
Image used on all by Hampton Art and all mounted onto plain black card.


Image from T!m Holtz Artful Artifacts stamp plate. Coloured with portfolio pastels, mount onto black card. Silver mirri card embossed in Dymo machine with 'obsession' and coloured with stream alcohol ink and black paint. Cd pieces used to embellish.


And finally this image was stamped onto glossy card with versa mark and heat embossed in black embossing powder. Coloured with metallic colours of perfect pearls, added onto a piece of black card and white posca pen doodling.
