Sea Shell Art Journal

Hi Lovelies,

Today I'm sharing with you the next addition to Helen's wonderful Art Journal.
This week's class was all things under the sea and involved various layers of stamps and stencils to create this stunning oceanic background.



This week Helen has included the sentiment 'every shell has a story' in-between the wispy stenciled designs.


The stamp featured in this week's class was 'Sea Shells' by Stampendous, which has been water-coloured and highlighted with a white pen. These have then been layered on top and underneath the stenciling to create depth to the page. 


Helen has used the dandelion stencil from Celebr8 in amongst other textures and patterns to create the background. This is a perfect example of how you can incorporate products into your project that don't appear to fit the theme.


The textured paint and various stenciled designs are a stunning combination
which make this page a true stand out!

 

A final touch of black pen outlining and this gorgeous page is complete!


Helen's Art Journal classes are such a great way to learn new techniques which you can use no matter what style of crafting you prefer. If you wish to find out more about these classes or book a seat please call one of our lovely ladies at the shop.

 Hi all, Here a brief overview of our 2 day adventure on Fraser Island with Fraser Island Explorer Tours. Here is a link to our trip in video format.  https://youtu.be/QY8tr093G4o We were picked up from our accommodation by our tour guide who then picked up some more of our group and headed to the barge to go across to the Island. It was very smooth no seasickness this time :) We got on the 4x4 wheel bus and headed inland to Lake Mackenzie. This was a very picturesque spot. The water was very cool and the sand as white as we've seen it. After this we headed to Central station , the old tree clearing head quarters. Next we headed for Lake Wobby which was a 45 min trek in and 45 out across lots of sand. It sits on a big sand-blow which will eventually disappear. A small fresh water lake with a couple of cat fish in it. Then off to our accommodation for the night. The next day we headed out to run the beach pretty much all day heading all the way up to Champagne Pools. We eventua...

New Year, New Quotes

Hi Lovelies, If you're a regular at the Scrap N Patch you would know we love quotes. To help you get inspired and motivated for the amazing new year ahead, we thought we would put together a little collection of quotes we have found. Print them out, save them to your phone, set them as your wallpaper or share them with your friends.

Hervey Bay and the case of the missing whales.

 Hi lovelies, It has been some 8 months since our last post.  Travel around the world has certainly changed in 2020. We had not planned to do too much traveling in the first half of the year, but we quickly discovered that us making that decision and the government telling us that we won't are two very different things. :-). Feeling the need for a bit of a break, and a touch of fishing we headed for Hervey Bay on Wednesday. We had a great drive up, even managed to stop for a quick chat with the lovely Shirley in Cooya.   On Thursday we headed for a quick trip to the information centre.  To my surprise Robbie wanted to book another whale watching cruise.  We spoke at length to the agent there and finally chose what was supposed to be the calmest day for the next week.  It was then off for a drive along the coast line from Point Vernon to Urangan.   The day was beautiful, though there were large patches of mist/fog that hung around some of the ...
