Jen Matott here to share a project made with Faber Castell Design Memory Craft and Cornish Heritage Farms Rubber Stamps. I created a cover to my new journal.
For this canvas journal cover, I used the following:
Cornish Heritage Farms rubber stamp Antiques
Cornish Heritage Farms Backgrounders rubber stamp in French Script
Cornish Heritage Farms Backgrounders rubber stamp in WoodGrain
Cornish Heritage Farms rubber stamps in A Time to Stamp
Faber Castell Design Memory Craft Gelatos®: Banana, Squid Ink, Acqua Dolce, Snow Cone, Blood Orange
Faber Castell Design Memory Craft Stamper's Big Brush pen: Black
Faber- Castell Design Memory Craft Textural Accents Gesso

Cornish Heritage Farms Backgrounders rubber stamp in French Script
Cornish Heritage Farms Backgrounders rubber stamp in WoodGrain
Cornish Heritage Farms rubber stamps in A Time to Stamp
Faber Castell Design Memory Craft Gelatos®: Banana, Squid Ink, Acqua Dolce, Snow Cone, Blood Orange
Faber Castell Design Memory Craft Stamper's Big Brush pen: Black
Faber- Castell Design Memory Craft Textural Accents Gesso
First I coated the cover with Faber- Castell Design Memory Craft's Textural Accents Gesso and allowed it to dry. I then stamped this image in black.
I added Banana Gelato to the center and added water with a spray bottle. Tip the journal to create the drippage.
I used the Gesson on a tag by applying a thick coat and allowing it to mostly dry before stamping the Woodgrain stamp into the gesso. It made a raised image and then I added Gelatos to accent the image.
You can see the detail here and I also stamped a key and lock with the Stamper's Big Brush Pen in Black.
Don't forget to stop by Cornish Heritage Farms too!
It is beautiful! i esp love the way you made the tag with the woodgrain and gesso!

I really really love this. I am so fascinated by mixed media type projects. And this is no exception. I have wanted to try gelatos for a while now but after this hop, I really need to be able to play with them. Wonderful job on this piece Jen.

A bright, happy project. While I'm having a cold, dreary day it's nice to see something sunny and bright. Warms me up and gets me ready to go work on a project of my own.

do we have to really wait until Feb 29th for the winners to be announced? Lol! That's a long wait. Gelatos have so much potential - It's been great to see how they can be used this week.
