Something Different

I've been wanting to try decorating a canvas for a long time, but I really can't bear to have inky hands...... So now that my  hubby brought me a box of rubber gloves from work, I can get as inky as I like.... lol.
Here's my first ever canvas.


Yes, I did start of with a completely blank canvas.  All the flowers were white and all the shapes were too and cut on my cameo.  I used 3 different colour shimmer mists and a bit of gilding wax on various parts.




I'm ready to make another now..... it's addictive!

Micro Beads

I've been playing with texture paste and microbeads again, I just love this technique.
I used a stencil from Imagination Crafts and inked through it with Distress Inks in Picked Raspberry and Peacock Feathers.  



Give this techniques a try, I'm sure you'll love it too.

Micro Beads & Texture Paste

I've been blog hopping for the last couple of weeks and came across Eileen's blog.  I'd seen Eileens blog a while ago, but just couldn't remember the name of it, so couldn't find it again.  Well how lucky was I to stumble upon it again, via Lavinia Stamps.  Well now it's well and truely bookmarked..... lol.  Eileens work is just gorgeous and there's so much inspiration there, so thank you Eileen.

Anyway, I came across this technique while looking at Eileens blog and thought I'd give it a go.  
I inked through the stencil (from Imagination Crafts) with distress inks and dried it off a little with the heat gun.  Then placed the stencil back over the image, taped it around the edges to keep it secure, and spread translucent texture paste through the stencil, carefully removed the stencil and sprinkled micro beads all over it, just like we do glitter.  I did this over a plastic container cos oh do these little beads bounce! lol  Once dry I made it into a card, and this is the end result.  Such a shame I just couldn't get a brilliant picture of the beads, it really is lovely.




I really enjoyed doing this, so will be doing it again.
I'd like to enter this card into the present challenge over on Imagination Crafts where the theme is 'Imagination In Bloom'.  The challenge runs till 31st March.

This image is a digi from the Katy Sue CD 'Fabulous Shoes'.  I've had this CD for ages and this is the first time I've used anything from it, terrible or what..... lol.  I added Glossy Accents to the dots on the mushrooms and used a MS punch for the border, sentiment is from Lily of the Valley, the BP I've had for such a long time and have no idea where it's from..... lol

This image is called Honeysuckle and coloured with ProMarkers.  After I cut the card shape, I ran it through the Calibur with an embossing folder, then distressed it lightly with Distress Inks and added pearls from Mei Flower.  


The close up view... lol.

Just Inklined

Well is seems like Spring may finally be near, so I thought I'd use this lovely Narcissus digi stamp from 


I used ProMarkers to colour the image and the background was made using a mask I cut on my Cameo, inked through with Distress Ink, then just a light dusting of the same ink to tone down the whiteness of the card.  Finished off with pearls from Mei Flower in the corners.


The usual close up.....
