Chlorine

Finally got around to completing another element, so here is Chlorine, I've had this background ready for ages.....but finally finished it off. So long ago in fact that I don't really know what I did.....I guess it must be dylusions and a few stencils.......

Sulphur and cake

Just realised I forgot to post Sulphur that I finished last week....here it is....background is a swirl stencil and random Dylusions

And here is a coffee cake I made....I bought some coffee extract and wanted to test it out; I added fudge pieces too but they all melted and stuck to the tin d'oh anyway I rescued those and put them in the middle bit and also made some coffee butter cream as well and added a few more fudge pieces on the top.

Silicon and Phosphorus

Well I haven't done any elements pages for ages.....I actually finished off Silicon last week and I've just completed Phosphorus, I've had quite a few backgrounds completed for a while but not got around to adding on the information for each element. The backgrounds are a variety of Dylusions and stencils

Magnesium and Aluminium


Here are the next two elements completed. I did the backgrounds ages ago, mostly Dylusions and stencils, and I've just got around to adding on the wording. Oh and there's a slight bit of Zentangle on the Magnesium letters that I was practising when I first had my Zentangle book but I've only just got around to adding in the rest of the words.

Sodium

Well I've finally got around to finishing another element.....well I've had this mostly finished for ages but just got around to adding the writing. So erm I think the background was pastels and them some splodges of distress stain. The Sodium letters are coloured with perfect pearls using them like a paint.

Magnesium shouldn't be too much further behind you can actually see the ink of the letters coming through from the next page....d'oh oh well.....

Neon

And here is Neon.....moving on to an orangey theme which was actually quite appropriate for Neon.

The background is mainly distress ink and stains.....and Neon is coloured with gel pens....


Oxygen and Fluorine

Here are the next two elements......a pinky purple theme for these two.......and if I've learnt nothing else I now know you spell Fluorine uo and not ou...!

The backgrounds are a variety of all sorts of paints and inks and stencils and glitter.......Oxygen was initially embossing ink used through stencils and then I used pastels to adhere to the embossing ink then I went over the top with various inks and paints......I think the pink must be Dylusions but I can't remember!! Fluorine has got some extra purple paint and I used my square grid stencil on that one and I went round the edge with black soot distress stain.

Nitrogen

Finally finished Nitrogen for my elements pages. Had a bit of a leakage of pink from the next page......but once it dried it looked OK! It's just fun spraying Dylusions inks pretty much everywhere.....!! The photo has a bit of reflection because I used some metallic glaze.....but this one is just a bit crazy over all!

Carbon

Here is Carbon.....which is actually a double spread with Nitrogen but I haven't quite finished Nitrogen yet. It was all Dyan Reavely inspired as I was watching a video demo of her ghosting technique.......and now I've gone all ink and stencil crazy hehehehe!!

Also used a couple of Tim Holtz stamps and a splurge of paint around and about......


Boron

And here is Boron......a big spiral of oil pastels.....and then some areas painted white so I could write on them......


Beryllium

Here's Beryllium.......this is pastels and then some oil pastels at the bottom.....and I made use of some new stamps........excellent danger, toxic etc. from Crafty Individuals and some Tim Holtz stamps - that's the brickwork.....

Lithium


Blimey it's taken me this long to realise I can give my posts a title.....even though I read so many other blogs with post titles that I don't know why I've never thought before.......anyway here is my Lithium page......mostly mustard seed distress ink background and then some gold metallic paint, a few stamps here and there although I don't think you can see them on the picture......oh and I found a little spiral that I used as   a mask and went over the top with gesso

I absolutely love learning stuff......and I love creating stuff so I am mixing the two......here are a couple of pages I've made about Hydrogen and Helium.......and hopefully the theme will continue.....although I'm always easily distracted by about a billion others things so who knows.........

The background on Hydrogen is pastel and then I printed and cut out Henry Cavendish and coloured him a little with Promarkers and then wrote on the facts with some pens I had years ago and the yellow symbol was cut out from an old periodic table that we had on the wall but kept falling off and basically that was what inspired the idea in the first place.......and the brown specks are a stamp

Then the other page is a background of distress stains and distress ink and then purple Dylusions.....I can't wait to get some more Dylusions inks as I've only got purple at the moment and I love how messy they are......then I wrote on the facts and I went over the top of the cut out symbol with sparkle mod podge and then I stamped some lids etc with black gesso then I dulled that back down by going over the top with yellow pastel.....and I coloured in the big helium letters with silver Promarker.......
