Tres Jolie Mixed Media Cards- August Kit

 Hey everyone. Liv here to bring you another project using this month's August Mixed Media Set. 

For this one, I mentioned in my blog post last week that the coverage from the TCW Stardust Butters is fantastic, a nice shimmer, dries fast and overall good coverage. That is why I decided to use the butters as a central item in my cards this month.

First up, I took two pieces of cardstock in my stash and cover the panels completely with the TWC-Butters. 

Once the panels were all dried, I used on of the larger flower set dies I have in my stash to cut the flowers out on the two panels.

For the first one, I did a quick splatter background to match this month's Tres Jolie Challenge Mood board.  Be sure to check out the colors this month and hope you enter to win.

 

Once the splatter was done, I placed the large black die cut and used some of the gold die cuts. Then did a little ink, Nuvo drops and this card was done.

For the next one I made, I used the vellum to ink it up.

 

I then layer down the rest of the gold die cuts and stenciled using this month's kit stencil. 

Once that was done, I added more Nuvo drops and this card was done too.

So here are the finished cards. I hope you enjoyed this project.

Mixed Media Tag using June's Tres Jolie Kit

Hey everyone, Its Liv here with my first DT project for Tres Jolie. Today I will be sharing a tag I created with the June 2023 Mixed Media Kit. Not only are we bringing you new projects using the new June kits but its also Tres Jolie's 5 year Anniversary, stay tuned as I know we have lots of fun challenges and events coming up. 

Mixed Media Tag

For this tag, I'm sharing a few photos as well as video of how it call together on the Tres Jolie Youtube site. Now oil pastels are a new media for me so I found that baby oil worked the best to get the blending to work. The first layer I used white gesso on the Studio Light-Mask-MASKFC30 stencil included in the kit to create texture.

 Next I used multiple colors- RED, BLUE, YELLOW AND GREEN from the Royal & Langnickel Oil Pastel set. With some baby oil I was able to move the colors round. I then added more stripes from the Studio Light Mask, but this time with using the Lindy's Gang Milky Way White Mica powder as a watercolor.  

Then I used my Dress My Craft Transfer sheet-3D White Flowers. I thought the white was a bit too bright so I colored them in with the oil pastels. 

Then I finished off my tag using the Swirls and Scrolls Chipboard, adding some mini art stones, and a sentiment.  I just loved all the chipboard pieces created by Tres Jolie and look forward to using more of it. 

And here is the finished grungy mixed media tag! I hope you enjoyed this project and look forward to sharing more with you over the month.
