First Hallowe'en

Ruby Rock-it Bella! Fundamentals Designs was created by Fynmark in Australia in 2008. Already successful with other mainstream papercraft brands in the local market Creative Director Joanna wanted to create a new brand that focused on all the things she loved – vintage style papers and richly textured embellishments – and so Ruby Rock-it was born. “It’s an acknowledgement to my grandmothers who were a huge influence in my life growing up – their tea-cup patterns, their love of all things olde-worlde.”

First Hallowe'en

Happy Thursday, Scrappy Peeps!

Cindy here today with a LO using Ruby Rock it's Kinda Krafty papers, Art Impressions' Little People stamp & some Art Anthology Dimensional paint thrown into the mix.

I backed my LO on Ruby kraft cardtock - kraft is a wonderful neutral to pair with brights if you are a colour lover like me. Since there is yellow in my photos as well, I added some Carnival King yellow paper in behind my elements as well.

I used water colour pencil crayons with my stamped image and blended with a moist brush. Since I am a very novice stamper, I kept my colours on the simple side and then fussy cut around the outside of my image. I added it to my page with foam dot adhesive for dimension and then finished my LO off with some machine stitching, speckled paint & hidden journalling in the upper right hand corner.
