Once Upon A Sketch

I haven't done a sketch from Once Upon A Sketch for a while so here goes.
You had to interpret the sketch/theme "The men in our lives"  in anyway and as long as you use journaling on your page it could be hidden but mine is not.


And here is the sketch




And my journaling reads

My husband Laurie and my son Michael are the most two important men in my life. They mean so much to me. For anyone who knows them both, I would certainly be lost without them. Both keep me on my toes. Love you both so much.

Product I have used:
Prima Cartographer paper collection, chipboard, flowers, trim some dusty attic chicken wire chipboard. Ayeeda pastel black, pearl olive green and pearl brown sprays.

Mixed Media Altered Frame - Off the Rails DT

Image
Hello Candy here again. I thought I would do an Off the page project for you all today. I bought this frame a while ago and had it in my stash. Firstly I painted the frame with black gesso and when it is dry cover with some Golden fiber paste on the sides and front of the frame, and the heart. I have used some chipboard pieces from one of our sponsors Memory Maze and painted them with white gesso. I roughly daubed with some liquid pearls, the rougher the better as we want some texture. Dry with a heat gun holding close as you want it to bubble. I then used Lindy's - Blue Hawiian blue, Glimmermist afraid of the dark and sei tumble dry green sprays. I used a small paint brush and daubed here and there. Dry between the colours or you will make mud.  On the heart I sprayed the Lindy's blue hawiian spray and when dry covered with glue and apply some midnight blue glass glitter. I also sprayed the colours around the inside and outside of the frame...

Just for you

Hi everyone I am back from a little break and ready to ctreate again. Today I have made a lovely little girls card. Using a fancy scroll and a word phrase. I have started with a 5 1/4 x 5 1/4 inch card base. I cut the first pattern paper layer at 51/4x51/4 inches. The second is cut from white glitter paper  and it is cut at 5 x 5 inches. The third is using another pattern paper and cut that one at  4 3/4 x 4 3/4 inches Distress around the edges of all three then tape the first two onto the card base. The third pattern paper curl the right top corner use a little glue to hold this in place. Then tape onto the card using foam tape. I have matted my photo and put foam tape underneath to raise it up. Now for the corner swirl and the word phrase all I did was give them a couple of coats of white ink.  When dry glue onto your card. Add a little piece of lace under the corner roll and then add some flowers to finish off. Mmeor...
