Under the Sea chunky book swap

Another great challenge from Aussie Crafters wow what fun we have all had making our 10x15 cm pages. I have used some chipboard, gesso, tissue paper, texture paste, shimmerz sprays, a lovely mask for the bubble pattern, sea shells, pearl spray cut into strips some gauze coloured with the same spray I used for the background. Also used stamps from Grapgic 45 cut these out and glued them to the card. I have to make 7-10 of these and post them to our host and she will then put them in rings and post them back to us, we will have to pay postage of course but I can not wait to see what everyone else comes up with. But this is mine for the swap....




 So girls and boys come along and give this a go I promise you, you will have fun.

    Very cool use of techniques. Will all be beach themed or will you be surprised with what everyone else does?

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...

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...
