Messing with Pebeo Fantasy Prisme Paints

Good morning.

Happy Sunday. What with one thing and another it has been so long since I have blogged. I just hope I haven't forgotten how to do it! But now things should be slightly less hectic at work and so hopefully I will be able to craft in the evenings instead of falling asleep!

Last weekend, I did manage to have a bit of a play with "free form" fantasy Prisme paint. No Cerne Relief paste was used.

 

These two frames were laid on my desk ensuring that they were a flat and level as they could be. Then I just poured and dripped various colours onto them and let them do their own thing. The results are brilliant. I hope you like them.

Heart Card

Good evening,

A nice simple heart card for Tuesday Alchemy Challenge-50-my-hearts-all-flutter.html


The base, A5 size, card is made from a beautiful patterned mirror card which I though set off the embellishment well.

The heart shaped piece of board was stamped with a flower image by from Sheena Douglass. The individual flowers were linked together with relief paste to add the leaves. Everything was then coloured with Pebeo Fantasy Prisme Paint which was allowed to dry thoroughly. The lace was added to the back of the heart before it was mounted over the pink ribbon using Pinflair Glue Gel. The bow was added last to complete the effect.

Tag Bookmarks

 Good morning. Here are some examples of the tag bookmarks I have been making using Sheena Douglass stamps on mount board. 

The images have been outlined with Cerne Relief and then they have been painted with my favourite Pebeo Fantasy Moon and Prisme paints. I took these to the Stonehouse craft fair yesterday and they were much admired. I even sold the poppy one in the top picture. The rest will be uploaded into my Folksy shop in the near future.

Valentine's Card

Good afternoon.

Now that Valentine's Day is over, I thought I would show you the card I made for Keith.

The A5 base card is suitably red and the embossed Centura Pearl card was made using my E-Bosser.

The heart was one of Sheena Douglass' die cut shapes - the largest size in the pack. The stamped images are also from Sheena,  - the Fantasy  stamp designs. This was decorated with Pebeo Fantasy Prisme and Fantasy Moon paints having first outlined the flowers with relief paste. I rather like the whole effect. It is simple and un-fussy but it looks a treat! The paints do give a lovely finish.

One last Christmas card before the end of 2012!

Here is my last Christmas card for 2012 which is the one I made for Keith, my other half.

The Poinsettia is on the front cover and the other images are on the inside surfaces of  a concertina card. (The greeting is on the back of the card).

All are images taken from Sheena Douglass stamps and they have been painted with Pebeo Fantasy Moon and Fantasy Prisme paints once the relief edges had set.

The labels were also from Sheena's stamps which were stamped onto white pearlescent card and then heat embossed in gold.

The various shaped black layers behind the images were cut out with Spellbinders dies using my e-bosser machine.

The double sided pearlescent card used for the card base was embossed using the e-bosser machine in an A4 size embossing folder. The finished card is A5 in size.

More Decorated Tiles

I think I am getting the hang of this!

Here are 4 tiles all of which have been painted with Pebeo Fantasy Moon and Fantasy Prisme paints.

All the images are from stamps by Sheena Douglass.

I am looking into how to best mount these to make teapot or saucepan stands.

Decorated Tile

Here I am playing with Pebeo Fantasy Moon and Fantasy Prisme paints again.

This is based on a white ceramic tile. The central image is from a rubber tag stamp by the lovely Sheena Douglass. Once I had edged the stamped image in a gold coloured relief medium, I extended the design so that the whole tile surface was incorporated into the design.

The land, the tree and the tag edge are painted with the Prisme paint and the sky with the Moon paint. I love the way that the two colours of Moon paint mixed themselves to give the beautiful effect for the sky.

This will be made into a pot stand by putting felt and rubber feet on the back.

Pebeo Painted Book Marks

 I really have fallen in love with these wonderful paints. These tags, made from thick mount board, have been painted both with the Fantasy Moon and the Fantasy Prisme paints. Again, I have done a close up so that you can begin to see the sorts of effects that you get.

The image is from a stamp by Sheena Douglass from her latest sets designed to go with these paints. However, I am looking forward to using other stamped images too and even having a go free hand. So brave, so fearless!

Just wait until you see what they look like on ceramic tiles! Once the paint has dried for about a week, it is so tough that you can use it as a trivet for hot pans with no ill effects to either tile or pan.

I need to go raiding Ikea over the holidays to see what I can find to decorate. As the paints work on all non absorbent surfaces they will be so many things to have a go at.

Playing with Pebeo Fantasy Paints

Happy Saturday to you all.

I have been having great fun playing with my new Pebeo Fantasy paints. They give such brilliant effects. OK, I admit they are not perfect but as these are my first attempts I am pretty pleased with them.

The Fantasy Prisme paints split as they dry, as can be seen in the bottom close up picture, leading to all sorts of different effects. The amount of patterning apparently depends on how thick the layer of paint is. The more paint, the more it splits.

The Fantasy Moon paints don't split like the Prime but gives some lovely swirly patterns.

These three examples are done on thick cardboard so I can't wait to try them out on other substrates such as glass, tiles, mirrors etc.

The stamp used for the pattern is one of the new ones from Sheena Douglass. This is then outlined with a relief medium which does not spread to give a rim around each shape. Then you just drop the paint into each section carefully trying not to get it in the wrong sections!

They are oil based paints so it does take quite a time to dry but the results are worth it.
