Happy Birthday Cupcake

Well here's a card I completely forgot to post.It's one of those wait til the recipient has received it then you can post,but my memory isn't great for that system lol 
So I am using a oldie but adore her.It's from CC Designs..I believe she's Bridgette cup cake..I hope 
The paper is from Bo Bunny..since she is a fan of purple I couldn't resist a glittered up butterfly with TH distress glitter.And a dash of WOC flowers .



I used some faux snow for the icing on the cupcake..it's like it's whipped icing in a jar lol 
Hope you like ,thanks for stopping by :)

Fairy Garden Canvas

Ok today I am excited to share this.I have been in some sort off mojo rut.Cards just haven't been sparking any interest to me BUT I have found working with mixed media has really boosted my energy. I think about it non stop.I was able to attend a crop a few weeks back and got to play !! Get inky,sticky and full of paint lol !! FUN FUN !  
So I was able to meet the owner of Southern Ridge Trading Co , Karen ! What a sweetie and well enabler lol.... I was able to do some shopping for my all time favorite thing..CHIPBOARD . I found everything I needed and well a heck of  alot more !! Go check it out ( Happy Shopping)

This canvas is just a 6x6 size,I did it small,but kinda wishing I had done bigger,But I am happy with it. There is so much texture in this ..lots of stencils from TH and Memory Box ,texture paste,lace,doily,cheesecloth...spritzed all up.

That cute flourish and bird is from STC..


and so is this Fairy Garden sign !! OMGoodness adorable !! The stems came from blue Fern studios.The mushroom I believe came from fabscraps..don't quote me lol .The fence I have had for some time ,it's Maya road .

The Explore word is also STC ..I had finished this canvas but something was just bugging me about it..I needed a fairy ..so I went online and printed one out and set it on the word...I think she needed to be there.


I hope you like ...:)

Red & White wishes ...

Ooops missed posting these. I really think Santa needs to bring me a brain lol. Boy when there is too much info to remember .... well it`s overload happening right now.Trying to remember to get everything I need and want to do over the holidays . 
So today's batch of quickies are using the Tim Holtz poinsettia die again as well as his stencil Holiday words.I wish I had thought of using my holly stencil because it would have looked pretty too.I used  texture paste with the stencil ,it really gives it a nice effect . I also used his embossing stencil with the poinsettia die. As quick as this card looks to make it did take a bit of time lol.

The branch and star die is from Memory box.I actually borrowed from friends those dies..must get my own lol.




See ya again , hopefully ;)

More Xmas Quickies ..

Ok Here is some more quickies.Although it was time consuming doing the poinsettias lol. They are a Sizzix die for Tim Holtz.It's a fav of mine.I wish they had a smaller version as well or I guess I should say medium because there is the small one. Anyhoo...the papers are from FarmHouse called Norland. Now I bought  it last year but didn't get to use it.It's one of my favs ,the paper is stunning.I also had to get it out of the UK and paid an arm and a leg for because it wasn't even in the US or Canada . I'm not even sure if it is yet either. None the less I'm glad I got it.  
Back to the rest of the card...the sentiment is from Stampendous and the charm is Tim Holtz.The leave spray is Prima.I really wished I had used some embossing enamel around the card but oh well.


As you can see I used some platinum stickles around the poinsettia and sentiment image.Sooo pretty.




Thanks for stopping by Hugs !!

Some quickies ...


Hi I just wanted to post some quickies.With a lot of Xmas cards having to be made I really had to step back and make cards that didn't take so long to make.Cause well.... I think they never would have all been made lol. 


I did a couple sets ....first ones are using Whipper Snapper stamps and High Hopes stamps.Both quick and easy to color up. My background is using texture paste and stencil.I even sewed around the edges very haphazardly ....With some little added bling VOLIA !! 





This next set is great ..some patterned paper and dies and BANG very simple !
The mitten and sock dies are from Memory Box. The papers are from Bo Bunny and Bazzil.
Sentiments are from hero Art and Stampin Up. The embossed background is from TH words folder I believe ..don't quote me lol



So hope you like these quickies :) Have fab day !

DREAM & JOURNEY

Hi today I am showing some mixed media work.I am loving working with this art lately. I love working with  gesso,paint ,and sprays...so much fun and easy to do.

First up is a canvas...in both projects I have used dies to cut out of card stock as well as chipboard.
Basically you start off priming your canvas with Gesso.A couple layers if your gesso is on the cheaper side.I then cut out all my designs. Gluing them down and covering them with gesso. I also layed down stencils using texture paste to give dimension.Once you have your layout you then can start spraying...Once I was happy with that I took paint and dry brushed the tops to highlight the dies.And adding gems and pearls.





My second project is a journal that I altered using the similar technique as above.Although instead of paint to highlight I used Inkagold in silver.
