Step by Step by Lone Krieger
Welcome to my tutorial “The love potion brewery”. Hope you will enjoy it ❤️
Step 1.
Take a piece of multifarious cardstock size 99 x 210 mm.
Stamp a border using LAV884 River Root small with Versafine Clair Pinecone in all four corners. In the lower center, stamp LAV819 Wands & Spells in Versafine Clair Nocturne.
Stamp the cauldron from LAV194 Willow the Witch in Versafine Clair Nocturne on top off the books.
Stamp LAV910 Magical Mist in Versafine Clair Nocturne in first and second generation over the cauldron.
Make sure all ink is dry and then mask everything off with masking fluid and let dry before continuing.
Step 2.
Stamp LAV984 Berry Branch in Versafine Clair Pinecone at the top of the card (look at picture for placement). Stamp LAV827 Broomsticks (the large one) in Versafine Clair Fallen Leaves across the books.
Then Stamp 3 bottles from LAV847 Spellcasting Remedies (small) in Versafine Clair Morning Mist using second generation stamping for the bottles, but stamp the bottle labels in first generation.
Make sure all ink is dry and then mask everything off with masking liquid.
Step 3.
Place a moon stencil at the top. Now color your background using Elements Sundance, Russet Orange and Paprika. With a piece of torn paper make a line at the bottom and use Elements Olive for the ground. Covering the ground with a piece of paper, take a fan brush and splash tiny waterdrops at the red sky.
Step 4.
Stamp LAV431 Moon with Versafine Clair Morning Mist, softly in third generation. Now it is time to add some foliage.
On top of the ground, stamp LAV197 Field Grass in Versafine Clair Shady Lane in second generation, so it stands tall behind the bottles, and some LAV938 Dill in Versafine Clair Rain Forest, also second generation stamp, at the ground under the bottles. Finally add some LAV002 Bluebells in Versafine Clair Twillight.
Under the books, stamp LAV945 Mushies in the middle and LAV846 Meadow Blossom (the small) in Versafine Clair Shady Lady.
Wipe off all ink from the masking fluid with a baby wipe.
Remove all masking fluid.
Step 5.
Time to add some more colour! 🎨
Add your favorite brown to the branches. I have used my Mondeluz pencils to colour both the branches and books. A wise lady once said that if you use three different colours when you colour your books, they will appear more alive. Normally I use two different shades of the same colour and then I add a little touch of brown for shadow.
For the broomstick, use your favourite brown and color the broom with a light ochre. Then add some thin strokes with a darker ochre, a middle brown and a dark brown.
The bottles are painted with Elements Sahara, Violet Chalk and Pink Elephant, and I have added a touch of light blue around the edges. The corks are coloured with a middle brown Mondeluz pencil.
Step 6.
Stamp some leaves on the branches using LAV980 Wild Foliage in Versafine Clair Shady Lane in both first and second generation.
Step 7.
Add some Glacier Blue posca pen to colour the Bluebells.
Color the Mushies with Red posca and add little white dots. Draw up the stalk with a white gelly roll. Colour the Meadow Blossom with White posca.
Step 8.
Use your stencil brush with Elements Ink Truffle to darken the corners, but not too dark. Apply a little to the sides as well.
Step 9.
For the finishing details, write your own text on the bottle labels. Draw small red hearts with a red posca pen in the magical mist.
Color the little orbs in the corner stamps with red posca. Put some shimmer on the cauldron with a clear Wink of Stella. Finally, add white posca pen highlights to the branches, the Bluebells, the bottles, the little hearts and where ever you want an item to stand out a bit.
Hope you had fun!❤️
