Design work for Kuretake: Theme - Doodle Mania

Title: Chasing Twilight

Pavadinimas: Bevaikantys prieblandą

*This layout was created for Kuretake's design team prompt to use doodling on your artistic creation.

I've used two of my very favorite Kuretake pens:

*Wink of Stella (MS-40-101 GL. Gold)

Note in the above up-close photo how the gold colored seaweed shimmers with golden sparkles. I can't get enough of this pen! I've used it on so many projects already that I need to stock pile it.

*ZIG Millennium black pen was extensively used to draw the free-form seaweed, and also to outline the silver glitter title letters in order to make them stand out better; Also this is my go-to pen for writing text.

We returned from a recent family vacation to Mexico with literally hundreds of great photos. This one was one of my favorites. There's no deeper meaning to this layout apart from the fact that I wanted to create a beautiful environment for a beautiful photo. 

Also, because I am such a technique addict, I wanted to play an experiment with a new to me technique. 

A while ago, I saw a stunning layout in an online gallery that had similar Hambly transparancy flowers that had this look of hand-blown glass. Unfortunately one had to sign up (and pay) for a workshop to learn this 'secret technique'. Well, that was just the impetus for me to try it out and find out for myself :) 

It proved to be fairly easy to make these transparency dimensional flowers:

1. Use a circular scallop paper punch to punch out transparency.

2. Use a heat gun along the edges of transparency - the edges will curl up....it's that simple!

Thank you so much for your visit and comments!

Skrebukas sukurtas Kuretake gamintojo dizainerių kompandai; Užduotis- panaudoti papaišymus 'doodle' (tokio tipo kur paišai automatiškai, be pastangų, pavyz. kol telefonu kalbi).

Nusprendžiau pripaišyti jūros žolių ir jas nuspalvinti aukso spalvos blizgiu flomasteriu.

Skrebukas be jokios gilesnės prasmės - pagrinde tik dekoratyvinis. Kadangi po praeitos kelionės sugrįžome su keliais šimtais visai neblogų nuotraukų, akivaizdu kad ne kiekviena bus su išsamiu aprašymu. 

Ši nuotrauka keliavo tiesiai į mano favoritus ir laukė savo eilės būti 'papuošta'. Esu patenkinta galutiniu rezultatu, ypač todėl kad pamėginau man naują techniką kurios 'paslaptį' pati atradau; Tokias skaidrių lydytas gėles esu mačiusi internetinėj galerijoj deje, reikalavo prisiregistruoti (ir užmokėti) kad išmokti šią techniką. Pamėginau tai pasidaryti pati su fenu ir man pavyko iš pirmo karto :)

Dėkui kad apsilankėte ir nepagailėjote parašyti komentarą!
