Happy Wet Friday

Ohhh so much rain but I don't care, I really am in my happy place right now with crafting

A few days ago I discovered Vera Lane images, 

I totally am having a blast!!

Here is a link to the store

Vera Lane Studio

But be warned addiction may occur!!

I decided I wanted to make myself a canvas

This one is 8x8

I started off doing the boring Gesso and once dried I used a Tim Holtz stencil for the brick work along with some modelling paste ~ Luckily at this point I went shopping so it could dry naturally without me sticking me fingers in to see if its dry even though I knew it wasn't.

So once home I painted a random background using Ecolines.

I used a inkwell stamp Meadow Row for the black stamping at the bottom.

And added a few various stencils and stamps

Now from Vera Lane Studio I used

Brown-eyed Susan set 

Birds of a Feather small things matter

Blooms

Sprinkle Sparkle

I also used the amazing collage sheets

Circles and Stems

Blue collage Scraps

I have used Distress inks to colour and some oxides on the background

I finished off by giving the bee's a sprinkle of glitter and then added some fun sequin mix oh a a few splodges of Nuvo drops Gloss ~ Carnation Pink

Crafty Ribbons Meets Fiskars

Wooohooooo what an exciting week

The Crafty Ribbon DT got lots of lovely new ribbons to play with

and not only that 

It's collaboration week with Fiskars

I was sent some lovely Classic Foldable scissors

and also the sweetest heart punch

I had stacks of ideas but settled on

Baby shoes with matching box

I cut the shoes and box on my portrait

and using my lovely scissors cut the Unicorn ribbon and Chantilly Cotton lace

I cut two little unicorns for the front of the shoes.

I used the heart punch to make buttons and also on the front of the box

Bloom where you are Planted

I just love this saying and guess what....

I have come across a new artist well new to me and I just love her work

Here is a link to the Etsy Store

Vera Lane Studio

I spent literally hours today going through the store OMG I could have brought the lot!

Lately I have been doing mainly stamping projects but these have certainly wet my digi appetite again

The first set I brought 

Brown-eyed Susan

Which contained 6 digi stamps

So from the collection I used The little girl, (there's 2) the scalloped border, The bright pink flower (there's 2 also) and the sentiment

Hasn't that girl got attitude!! I do love some attitude

I used Distress Oxides on the background along with some fun stencils

For colouring up I used Distress Ink

I used a couple of random stamps the Orange flower stem and the tiny circles around the edges

Then....... Now I am really excited about this....

I found not only these perfect images but.....

There are also Collage elements

I got the circles and stems sheet , I could not wait to chop into it

I used ~ The blue stem and rainbow circle that I popped on as a quirky flower head

The red circle another flower head

and the green/black pink/black borders 

Want to know what else I brought??

Pop back later in the week and see

Tilda With Spring Bundle

Good Morning to you all

I am here today to share with you another Tilda card.

I absolutly adore stamping and had a stamping weekend :-) 

Firstly I stamped Tilda onto a tag.

I coloured up using Distress Inks (another love of mine)

I used Nuvo Crystal Drops Gloss ~ Double Denim on the flower tops, love the shine these create.

 The papers are Penny Black  COCO style (6x6 Paper pad)

I adore this pad and used it on a card I blogged yesterday.

I have a subscription to a magazine and have done for a few years now it always contains freebies , after I have used them I pop them in a box for my Granddaughter, I borrowed it back this weekend Sssshhhhhhh........

And thats where the butterflies, sentiment and flowers are from also painted with Distress Inks.

For the Butterflies I dusted around the edges using Stampendous Ultra Fine Crystal Glitter.

The Flower centers are Nuvo Glitter Accents

I did some faux stitching with my trusty Micron Pen.

And used a few random (old) Die's for decoration

The Lace is from Crafty Ribbons, I used a legnth across the bottom section of the card and some off cuts for the top of the tag tied with a little twine

Thank you so much for stopping by

Love 2 Create

Happy Sunday

Am here to share with you my project for this months Love 2 Create

Make sure you pop across to the challenge blog to see the other wonders from my teamies

This time I have made another set of ATC Coins
I am soooooo addicted 
I was asked lots of questions about my set I made the other week
**Although I am using MDF coins ~ these could quite easily be used with a 2.5 round circle punch depending on the medium you are using would depend on your card stock
**There are various groups about that swap these coins ~ I am keeping mine for now
 **You can personalise them , I have used Mike Deakin's ATCoin back digi page and these were punched out using my circle punch (you can see this in one of the photo's) You can purchase the page here
For my coins this time I have take the Wonderland route ~ I totally had so much fun playing with these

As before I used Distress Inks on the background and splattered them with water

I then used Polkadoodles Accents stencil - Stars and Circles and then splattered gently with black paint, 

The Sentiments are from Polkadoodles 6 x 6 Posy Doodles paper pack - Sentiment sheet, and all the Wonderland lushness is from Polkadoodles Winnie in Wonderland printable collection

And here is the back of coin number 3 ~ using the Mike Deaking Atc page
