A few more recent makes

Hi all

Today I would like to share with you a few of the things I have made over the past month with you. This includes some cards and also a few mixed media items.

Here goes

The first few are cards

You may recognise this image from a when I shared it a few weeks ago when I had just coloured it. Here it is made into a completed card. I followed the card making class from Kit and Clowder. The image is by Connie Fong. Flowers, lace etc from my stash. Papers from First Edition Paper Pad.

This next card I created with another sketch from Kit and Clowder. This image is a Moonflower digital image. Coloured using The July Kit and Clowder class. I have added various details with dies and flowers from my stash. The papers of First Edition Paper Pad ones.

This image is a Sheena Douglass stamp from the remember when collection. I coloured with my aqua markers. Background created using texture gel through a Sheena Douglass stencil and painted with dyna paints and distress inks. I added a printed sentiment and some string whih I distressed with black soot distress ink and added a button detail.

This next item was a wedding frame I was asked to create. Punched butterfly details have been added. Text all created on the pc with Serif Craft Artist.. Additional ribbon and gem details added.

This next on e is a cavnas I created using various mixed media items and techniques. Along with stamps from imagination crafts, Stamps by Chloe and Crafter's Companion. This canvas sparkles alot.

The above two items were created in workshops provided by Craftsite and the lovely Wendy.

Well hope you like these. I will hopefully be back soon to share some more crafty fun.

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 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
