A few weeks ago I was asked to create some samples for the new Crafters Companion Artist Collection Textures and Stamps. Each of the designers were given 4 of the 8 texture folders and matching stamps. Here are some further samples that I created:
A really versatile folder that is fairly neutral, I coloured the background with Distress Sprays and then high lighted with Pebeo Gilding paste.
A brick texture with some more matching stamps. This time stamped in Maroon Archival and over stamped in Coffee. I absolutely adore the word stamps, they have such cool fonts, and again would be great for journaling too.
This final one uses a leaf grain texture folder.
Well, that's it from me for today, thanks for visiting and hope you can find some creative time!

Fabulous samples Astrid. My bundle arrived today and I've had a play tonight with the distressed EF and it's fabulous...as you say it will be very versatile. Carol x
Missed this launch completely maybe because it is Crafters Companion and i tend to not watch too many of their shows, so off to see your first post and see if i can catch up with the collection on their website.
Lovely to see what you have created here Astrid, sorry for lack of commenting recently have been a tad poorly so trying to catch up :-) xxx

Oh my you´ve just done it again haven´t you? These are all so beautiful and so gorgeous made, that it almost take my breath away. And again some of my all time favorit colors used for them, so they´re just perfect in my world. I really love these.
All fantastic pieces and certainly show off the products at their best. The first piece with the wonderful colours is stunning
