Easter/Spring at That Craft Place

Good morning, this week at That Craft Place the challenge is nice and simple, Easter or Spring if like me you don't make Easter cards, I decided to decorate some little jars I had at home (bought for Christmas and never used ) bet I'm not the only one who does that.....I used my cameo and scraps of vinyl to add Hoppy Easter, some bunnies and the names of all the little kiddies in our family to them. then just added some mini eggs.....

and I have to say you don't get very many in a bag this little lot took 3 bags and I had to add some cotton wool to raise them up so I could take some pics....I will buy more before I give them out...the largest one is a mason jar and I wrote a little message to my Granddaughter onto a little blackboard sticker that I got from Lisa at That Craft Place....thanks for stopping by today xxxx

Digi Galore....all about her

That Craft Place.....Anything Goes

Morning,

it's time for another challenge at That Craft Place

this time it's ANYTHING GOES

I'm so excited to share this with you all today,

I've recently started playing with the wooden

MDF pieces from the lovely Lisa

at That Craft Place,

I have to tell you I have tried this technique so many times and

failed miserably, but then I went to a workshop

run by the wonderful Maira Simms and well,

lets just say it all clicked into place......

My Granddaughter is called Courtney but I call her Ney,

this is to go on the wall in her bedroom at Nanny's house.

To make it I started off with plain MDF letter, (Lisa can cut any words you like)

I covered them with bits of embossed card and die cuts.

I then covered the whole thing with gesso, once that

was dry I went in using a dry brush with a little cosmic shimmer paint in

graphite and teal.

I finished it off with a spray of shimmer.

hopefully you can see the shimmer in this pic...

What I love about this is it looks nothing like card at all..

I'd like to add it to the following challenge please....

Cut it up challenges......Embossing

have a fab week everyone xx

thanks for stopping by today.

New Beginnings....Sweet Lilac DT Card

Hi there,

this month over at the Sweet Lilac Flowers Challenge Blog the theme

is New Beginnings, and I picked a couple of new baby cards to make.

I printed the images then put them through my cameo

to get the heart shapes..I coloured them using my copics and pencils.

I inked all the edges with my walnut stain distress inks. 

I couldn't decide between a boy card or a girl one so I did both.

The amazing image is Butterfly Baby from Saturated Canary

Lace, ribbon slider and flowers are of course from Sweet Lilac Flowers.

Have a nice evening and keep warm.....it's freezing here today x

Mono at That Craft Place

Well, I have been a VERY bad blogger I haven't blogged for ages.

That because I was so so busy in the run up to Christmas

I didn't have any time at all....

I was making some glass blocks with photo's ect

on them I never dreamed they would be so popular..

Anyway I'm pleased to say I'm back making cards again...

This week the challenge over at That Craft Place is MONOCHROME..

I wanted to make a softer coloured card so goggled it and double checked

Mono is black and white OR varying shades of the same colour...

I have used lots of bits from That Craft Place on this one....The fibers, moss, wooden heart

and the dried flowers are all from the shop. I have used the amazing image

Kit from Saturated Canary..

The Ovals and sentiments were cut on my Cameo.

I'd like to enter her into the following challenges....

ABC Challenges.....Anything Goes

Imagination Crafts......Anything Goes

Silhouette Challenge....Anything Goes

The Crafting Cafe.....Lots Of Layers

Crafty Catz.....Anything Goes

Thanks for stopping by today and

HAPPY NEW YEAR

Morning Guy's

As soon as I saw this new image from Lisa's Etsy store

I just knew what I wanted to do with her..

Today is Remembrance Sunday and Sugar is just perfect for today.

I coloured her with my copics and Pro's and simply

popped her into a frame..

I adore her..you can find

Remembrance Sugar here 

Thanks for stopping by today
