Hi all
I'm back today to share a few more recent makes. I love crafting and creating. I find it very relaxing. I've not been well lately as you may know so haven't been very energetic. When I've been feeling upto it I've spent a little bit of time in my craft room. I've got a few simple cards to share with you and also a wall hanging.
Here goes with the cards
Don't you just love Hunkydory products. I do I have loads and love how they can make simple but effective cards.
Here's another Hunkydory card
This one is made with a Hobby House image and the papers are from a First Edition Paper Pad
House Mouse decoupage this time. I sat one night in front
of the TV and had some crafty cutting and cut out a couple of toppers
that I've used on these two cards. The first card I used papers from a
First Edition Paper Pad and the second the papers were from a Lili of
the Valley Paper Pad. I've added gems and ribbon from my stash.
Right now for the wall hanging
I made the panels in a Sheena Douglass Workshop last December. We used dies and stamps from the Time Traveler Collection. The background of the boards were first decorated with die cuts and texture paste, and then painted white with gesso. Then we added some colour using aqua tints and clear sparkle pens and finally some gilding wax. Then additional die cut elements cut out of black card stock, distressed again with gilding wax were added.
I hadn't totally decided what I was going to do with the panels so left them safe in my completed projects stash. I totally forgot about them and when I was moving craft rooms I came across them again. Well at the weekend I decided that I wanted to make them into a long hanging wall art. I attached black ribbon to the back and encased this in with some black card stock.
Here are some closer photos of each panel.
On this panel the dragonfly and propeller flower has also been distressed using Pebeo Gedeo Patine Vert de Gris. It gives a lovely effect.
Well that's it for now.
As always thank you for popping by.
Love and Hugs
