Paintbox Poppets Mother’s Day Card


100_1670

This is my first make with the wonderful new range from Crafter’s Companion – Paintbox Poppets.
I have used the Reddy Die Cut Decoupage and it’s so lovely to work with. I have decoupaged the image using Collall Glue Gel.

The base card is an 8x8 scalloped card I have matted onto this some kraft card and then chosen 2 backing papers from the Paintbox Poppets cd rom.
The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and pearls are from the Ribbon Box.
I have added a ribbon strip which I have punched with my new Martha Stewart double-edge punch – Linked Trim, I have used a ribbon from the Ribbon Box within this.
Finally I have used a Happy Mother’s Day Sentiment stamp from Lili of the Valley.

Thanks for stopping by
Hugs

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 lookin

Birthday Card Trio

 Hello all, I'm back again with another post for you. This time I've got three cards to show you.  These are all made with products from Crafter's Companion. The 1st is another dragon card made using one of the Lee Holland Dragon stamps. I love these little characters :) I've had coloured this using spectrum noir colour blend pencils. I just love how much of a fun looking card you can make with these stamps.    Next is a card made using a unicorn stamp. This has also been hand coloured with pencils. I've also used some backing papers and matt mirror and glitter card from Sara's Enchanted forest collection. Finally I've made a card using my Crafter's Companion BeBunni CD. It's a while since I've used this cd but I forgot how cute these little bunnies are.   All of the cards have been personalised with die cut numbers and letters for the names. Hope to see you all again soon. Rachel
