I Need Cake by Gabrielle Price
Tonight
we have another take on how to use Elena's stamps from Gabby. I love to
see people create outside the normally accepted methods. Today,
Gabrielle has done exactly that with a bold background, and she's kept
the focal images a tad more subdued by not applying a load of colour to
them. This is the exact opposite of what most people do with Zinskis.
And of course, being the creative genius she is, they still pop
magnificently off the background - what an awesome idea!
First a quick reminder of Elena's new stamps...
First a quick reminder of Elena's new stamps...
Hi everyone, Gabrielle here to show you an idea with Elena's brand new stamps she has designed for PaperArtsy.
I
love the quirky hand drawn images Elena draws and this new release has
some really cute characters that I think will inspire us all for a long
time - from the coquettish Zinis 13 to the 'it wasn't me' Zinis 11 - but
I definitely think Zinis 15 knows it was him!!!
I
am currently experimenting a lot with black and white images on a
coloured background, or vice versa. I made two projects with these
amazing stamps - this one has a background made from about 30 layers of
paint which gives a textured stucco feel - the striking images from
ZA13 mean they really stand out from the background. I loved the
lamppost but thought it might make an interesting stalk - juxtaposing a
long stem with tiny flowerheads.
I
love how the girl is standing - she looks 'planted' in this garden -
like she's refusing to move until she gets some cake. I think we all
have days like that!
I
couldn't resist my LGM (Little Green Man) and his hat house - so by
making these very colourful I could use Black Knight Infusions to create
the background. The LGM has a fabulous large head which would look
great swopped on the bodies of the other stamps - I think I'd like to
experiment with this idea next - for those of us who remember - think
Worzel Gummage! I love the 'stones' stamp - very, very useful for those
of us who like journalling! Oh! And the huge hat roof could fit the LGM
as a hat - so I shall definitely doing this!
There
are three 'hanging' stamps and I put two together and added two
fragments as if they were picture frames - this idea sparked lots of
others. I can imagine these stamped several times and used as a tiled
background. Especially combined with the stones stamp!
This
new release has lots of choice for us - from large images for a focal
point to smaller ones that can be used for backgrounds. Better than that
there's so many options to mix and match, between stamps sets and by
swopping parts of stamps around that the uses are endless!
