The Sugar Bowl Challenge No.33

This is a card I have made for the sugar bowl challenge no.33. I have used my new Sugar Nellie Blossom stamp which I bought a few months back. I know it's one of their older stamps but it's new to me lol. I have coloured using my Copics which I am getting slightly better at using! Taking time but getting there.

I had run out of paper for my printer so dived into my bits box (which generally has full A4 sheets in, because I click and print with the intension of making a card with it to then not. I'm sure alot of us do!!) and came across these. I think they were originally printed from my Barely Mine Extreme Cd's. These have been matted and layered using cold mirror card.

I have printed the sentiment which as you can see is thank you in Italian. I then cut this using my nestabilities and cuttlebug. Then have added brads for decoration. I have distressed the edges of the white card with some red ink. The ribbon is from the celebration range. Flowers are petaloo which I have completed with a brad from papermania.

As usual thanks for stopping by

Mixed media clock

Hi all I'm back today to share a clock I've made. I started it yesterday evening by adding the texture building stages using white crackle texture paste drying after. Then used various stencils and embossing paste. I dried this and then added a coat of black gesso and left it to dry over night. This morning I added some colour onto it using Pebeo Dyna paints. I added die cut numbers cut out of silver mirror card. However I wasn't happy with it as it was too dark for what I wanted it for and thought the silver numbers didn't go with it. So I sat back and looked at it and decided I wanted it lighter. Well no loss as out came my heavy white gesso and I gave it a good coating. Before adding the white gesso I sanded the numbers slightly so that the paint could adhere better and this also gave extra texture. I dried this off and added the Dyna paints again and some Art Alchemy Opal Magic in Rose Gold. Well I felt much happier with how it was loo...
