Welcome again to another tutorial for  Memory Maze Today I had to do a quick present for a wedding I was going to. So I dived into my stash and pulled out this 8 x 10 inch fancy photo frame. I pulled the frame apart and painted the frame itself with some white gesso. When dry I gently applied some gold rub n buff with my finger over the edges of the frame. I selected a few different chipboard pieces, swirls, butterflies and a large heart. I covered them with white gesso, then applied embossing powder to all of them.  Then using a strong glue glued the chipboard pieces and flowers to the frame.

Hello once again today I am bringing you my latest tutorial for  Off the Rails I have created my layout using the Rustic and soft mood board Thank you to our sponsors Tania Ridgwell Memory Maze Firstly I covered the background paper with clear gesso.  When it was dry I marked with a pencil where I wanted to place my photo.  You can erase the pencil marks out when you have finished with them. Using a netting mask and texture paste  apply around where your photo is going to be placed. Let dry  I have used scraps of paper stagger them in different places under your photo  when you are happy tape together.

Hello everyone today I am sharing with you my project for  Memory Maze  I decided to make a card with a difference for you all. A card with a difference you say, yes a difference. A girly, grungy envelope card Using a 12x12 inch piece of cardstock cut to 8x12 inches. Then score at 4 and 8 inches. Crease your score lines and measure along the top  of your card at 4 inches, mark with a pencil, this will be the middle of your card, then measure 1/2 inch to either side and mark with a pencil so it should be marked at 3 1/2 and 4 1/2 inches. Draw a line with a pencil from the 3 1/2 inch mark back to the left score line, do the same to the other side. ( image 1) Then cut.         Image 1                                                                         ...
