Mixed Media Inspiration and Tutorial


Hey Oddballs! Here is my first post on the design team. I wanted to share inspiration and quick tutorial for creating with Oddball Stamps. 

 
I have used image #7ws for this one.




Created with Watercolor, ink and scraps. If you enjoy my post here at Oddball Stamps, please follow my Instagram @Meagans.Art.Studio

The Cat Lady


Hello Oddball´s



Its me again; Tina: There is today an image for the cat friends among you. This ist "Cat Lady" #424
This time around, I once again dug out my watercolor pencils from Faber Castell and I colored the cat Lady with it.



For the background, I've tested something and lubricated around on a glittering gold hologram cardboard with wood glue and liquid Distress Oxide colors. And the paw prints and scratches I cut with the plotter out from vinyl foil.




See you soon...

Tina

Art Crayon Art Journal

Hey hey! Design Team member Alexa here!
Today I'm bringing you a fun art journal page featuring this gorgeous set of stamps & Marabu Art Crayons.


You can hop on over to my blog & check out a video tutorial/ product play & learn a bit more about Art Crayons, Pastels & Gelatos too!

For this project, I simply prepped a mixed media (heavier weight paper) art journal page with some Gesso. I then took over my art crayons and paintbrush & created a fun wash of color on the background & then added some scraps of paper.

I also used my art crayons to color the feathers:

Next I painted in my dreamcatcher & added some text & voila! A beautiful art journal page!


Hope you enjoyed this fun project! Go grab some art crayons & stamps from the Oddball Art Shop & get creating! Don't forget to use code "DTALEXA10" for 10% off your purchase!

January ATC Swap - Theme "Feature a Creature"

Well Oddballs, here we are again, another first for me - an ATC swap.  To be perfectly honest, I have not had any experience with these at all.  I had seen references to ATCs on Facebook over the years, but basically thought it was an American thing, you know like collecting baseball cards years ago like you see on the movies.  I know the craze of baseball cards has now advanced to Pokémon etc etc, but who would have thought Aussie Gail would have got into this, at 63 years old as well.  My first experience thanks to Oddball, and I think I am hooked, another papercraft I have to try and add into my day, less housework, but just think of the therapy benefits!  Here is my first attempt




There is room for improvement and I think it will be a while before I venture into mixed media backgrounds on such a small area, but hey, the DT girls are widening my horizons, you knows. 


The images I have used for my ATCs are available in the Etsy Shop https://www.etsy.com/au/shop/OddballArtCo?ref=l2-shopheader-name
The images are #413, #417 and #418.  Oh nearly forgot, it you use my code DTGAIL10, it will allow you to get 10% off your order in the Etsy shop.


For more details, check out my blog https://hutcho53.blogspot.com/2018/01/oddball-art-co-atc-swap-january-2018.html.  Thanks for stopping by Oddballs, see you at the ATC January swap!

Fairy Magic!

Hey everybody! Alexa here to bring you another fun project! Did you know digital stamps are the perfect starring point for inspiration for artwork?! I started this project with this Happy Holly image from Oddball Art Shop . So super cute! And super sweet too! I immediately thought of my little kiddos & what a great message this is for kids & the fairy is just perfect for some nursery art. So I got to painting & here's what I created just using this stamp as inspiration


You can also head to my blog to see a video of my planning & thought process on this piece. Also some lil tips like what you can do when you run out of mod podge but reeeeeally want to make something!

Here's some close ups of this piece for you too!
