House Mouse–Thinking of You

100_1832

I have made this card to send to a work colleague who is unfortunately undergoing chemotherapy treatment for breast cancer. She’s having good days and bad days and I thought’s this cute House Mouse Decoupage image was in keeping with how she is feeling at the minute.

 

The backing papers are from my Tatty Teddy – DoCrafts CD Rom. I have matted onto pink card from Paper Mill Direct. The die is a Marianne Crafts’ and the flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts.  I have added a sentiment from my stash and some pearls from The Ribbon Box.

 

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...
