Create and Craft TV with Nikky

Hands up if you saw our wonderful Nikky on Create & Craft earlier at 2.00

If you missed the show you can catch up here

AND

Nikky is back on our screens at 7.00 this evening

For my first card that I am showing, I used so many bits and pieces so I hope I don't miss any out

I started off with a brick mask and used modelling paste to create a wall

(first time I have ever used it!)

I used the door die to create the window adding the fence and for the bottom part of the bird house I used the lampost die , this amazing set can be found

here

For my window

I used the door die

and for the inside a scene image from

Winnie Winterland

and then topped with acetate

I used the lush, lush, lush Birdhouse die, and the leaf stem amazing!!

find those here

I finished off die cutting using one of the pretty flowers

I dabbed about using pearl effects Red, these are a must have for Christmas Crafting.

Then on to my finishing piece awwwww the wee little robin, actually he is not that small in real life , big knickers on I used my shrinkles again I love this stuff!!

The biggest tip I was told when using is....If you use your heat gun to shrink rather than the oven make sure its sitting on a big pile of paper to stop it flying of in different directions!

Now the Robin was'nt on todays show , but he so fitted, so much so I made him twice . He can be found in the Polkadoodles store along with a wonderful  cage and lots more goodies, check them out here. I coloured  using pencils

Thank you for looking
