My Violin!!

Hello gorgeous people,

Off the cuff, I decided to do a Violin!!
This isn't part of a mood board but all my chippies are Dusty Attic!

I made it personal by attaching a photo of my Ballerina Mum!

Using all things Prima Marketing Inc. {flowers, sparkle paints, gesso and crackle paints} and a vine from 49 and Market.

All the chippies are from Dusty Attic.

My resin Flourishes and hearts are from Rustic Bling.

I had so much fun with this and hope you like it too!

Thanks for looking!

Perfect Moments!

I’m back,

This is my beautiful girl, named Baby.

Sadly, I lost her a few years ago and she is buried her under my palm trees!

I worked on a canvas and used paper from Kaisercraft.

I added bandage tape, Prima washi tape and paper strips first, then using heavy gesso from Prima painted over lightly, let dry, then I watered down my stormy Sky Tim Holtz paint, letting run and helping it with a paint brush in the directions I wanted. Let dry, then using a script stencil, stencilled over in places and added blue glitter.

I used coffee to colour my doily. I tore corrugated paper and a piece from a book chalked them with dark brown on the edges and added washi tape over the corrugated piece.

I painted my chippies with all-purpose ink. I cut the wings off the key and cut up one of the lace boarders. For the tab, I lightly painted the blue and topped off with the all-purpose ink.

Placing everything and sticking down, and adding lace; pins; wool and flowers with a few 49 and market flowers. The strip at the bottom of the Kaisercraft page was so apt!

Best Memories

Hello scrappy friends,

This is my first of two layouts for the months of August!

This is a photo I took of my nephew 11 years ago. Where does time go!

I worked on a canvas and added a baby blue torn page from Kaisercraft. I added dry wall tape first, then Stencilled stars on the top half, I dropped coffee on the bottom of the canvas, let dry, and stencilled over adding glitter.

I tore pages from a book chalked them with dark brown and added washi tape, then attached under the torn half of the page.

I painted the fancy frames with antique linen paint and separated the title words and chalked with dark brown.

While this was drying, I then went to YouTube to make my pipe cleaner teddy bears!

Placing everything { flowers: Prima and hand made, also used gauze to create a soft effect}I cust flags chalking with dark brown and stuck it all down. I use hot glue and double sided tape to give depth. once this is all done I stencilled again using Novo mousse.

August mood board

Good day beautiful people!

So this is the mood board for August!

{Hashtag} #selfie!

Good morning fellow scrappers!

So this months Teal and Red mood board, 

took me completely out of my comfort zone.

These are not the colours I would normally scrap, 

what a fantastic challenge!

This is my selfie queen daughter (Meghan), 

who got me to pose with her, just for a change!

For the back ground I used the stencil Distressed Grid with a mixture of Clover and Mint Green inks, as well as on the the two Tags. 

For the Red tag I used Glimmer mist Cherry spray. Once dry I stamped ruler stamp.

For the Titles I used and chippie, 

I painted with Candied Apple and I painted the dry wall tape as well.

I also used butterfly ribbon, Black thread, Prima and hand made flowers.

I really hope I inspire someone, to step out of there comfort zone!

Picture Perfect

Hello scrappy friends,

So this is my take on this month’s mood board!

A simple, yet effective canvas, 

using this stunning photo of my friends little girl.

I went garden shopping,

YES I found the bark and the seeds, in the garden. 

All I did was dry them in the oven, for a bit.

I prepared the canvas by using Tim Holtz Distress paint Antique linen and rubbing on with a wet wipe.

I then die cut my leaves, and inked them by spraying water first and adding Cherry and walnut and again spraying with water to get the desired effect.

 I then painted my foliage with rust paint –Brown and adding cherry to the ends. I painted the small foliage and fancy frame with Sparks Magical paint.

For my title I used Sparks Red Wine paint.

Added splats stencil to the canvas using Tim Holtz – Vintage photo and Black soot and touching with Sparks magical paint.

Then putting everything together and adding grassy straw and gluing everything down.

(Just so you know I’m a fan of hot glue and it sticks)

I hope you have fun!
