Beauty by Jessika Lundman

Hi everybody!

Jessika here and today I get to show you my take on our gorgeous February mood board! I really loved creating this layout.

Here is a reminder of the mood board:

I was inspired to do something striking with a lot of gold accents. I used this photo of my younger sister and "framed" it with black ink and black gesso.

Lots of gold stickles and gold glitter :)

Even the letters got gold of them in form of embossing powder.

Through a stencil I used black gesso gently mixed with gold acrylic colors.

Hope to see lots of glamorus entries in our challenge :D

MIXED MEDIA TAGS by Mandy

Happy Hello Berry71Bleu Friends!

Mandy here sharing my take on this month's fun "Stamp It Up" challenge hosted by Denise.  I decided to create two mixed media tags using "Viva Las Vegastamps" and "7Dots Studio" Papers.

I stamped the butterfly tag using black "Archival" ink....

I added resist stamp details to the below tag using "fine" clear embossing powder.  The stamp has delicate details and I figured thick embossing powder wouldn't work well with this type of stamp.

I was going for a distressed/rustic/weathered look so the stamp work did not need to be perfect.  Here is a close up of the resist stamp work.

Here is an image of the supplies I used for this project!
I just LOVE this stamp and papers from "Viva Las Vegastamps and 7Dots Studio!  They went well together!

The below "Stamp It Up"  mood board shows some beautiful stamps and details for you to be inspired by!

 You can create layouts, cards, art journals, tags or even altered projects, as long as they contain stamping.

 

So now we would love to see your take on this month's challenge! ;-)

As always, we have some yummy goodies up for grabs.

1st Prize:

1 plate o' rubber, the winners choice, shipped to them for free.

Random Prize:

Life With You (Is One Amazing Adventure) Layout

Good morning fellow Berry71Bleu fans!  Kay here with my take on Denise's challenge for the month of June.  I honestly enjoyed this challenge because stamps are a personal fave of mine--I have many of them in my stash & I simply don't use them enough!  Well this challenge gave me the perfect opportunity to get creative with stamps.  June's challenge is: Stamp It Up & that's exactly what I did.

The photo is a sorta selfie that I took with my son & my pup Toby.  I edited the picture in Photoshop & applied a 'pencil sketch' effect to it. 

Here's this month's inspiration board.  All you have to do to play along is apply some sort of stamping to your project.  That's it!  Simple as that.

The large black flourish seen behind my photos and embellishments is one large stamp that I further dressed up with a bit of Stickles.

I went back to my childhood and broke out my markers & did some good ol' fashioned coloring on this page.  The paper I used is from the 'Everlasting' collection by Authentique.  The papers are all in black & white but some of the papers from the collection--such as this one--is designed so that one can apply their own color if desired.  I decided to add two additional colors to the black & white scheme--yellow & light blue.  With Prismacolor markers I colored all the flowers on this paper and then applied yellow Stickles to the center of each flower.

This fancy border, stitching & sentiment are all stamps.

The cute little car images is a stamp by this month's sponsor 'Viva Las Vegas'.  I stamped the image on a piece of white card stock & cut it out.  Finally I adhered it to my page with dimensional foam dots.

Hope this page inspires some of you to get crafty with those stamps!
