NEW Mixed Media Book Box Tutorial {Polymer Clay Center Piece}


Hello Friends! I'm back with a fun new video tutorial (see below) on how to make the above decorative book box! This tutorial includes step by step instructions on how I made the glass and polymer clay centerpiece as well. Here is a close up look at the book and polymer clay clock piece....



Look like a fun project?  Come have a looksie, I think you all are gonna have a lot of fun with this one!  Grab a snack (why not, everything is better with food right?)....and enjoy!...


I hope you enjoyed my tutorial, here are some of the feature products I used in this video. Two Stencils I designed for The Crafters Workshop....


....and some really beautiful paints and mixed media powders by Lindys Stamp Gang!.....


I've gotta say I just love the shimmer and color in these beautiful Lindy's products.  When the water hits those magicals and activates the powder, it's just shimmer and shine and deep rich color!  Here are a few more closeups and angle pics of the project if you need reference points if you are trying out this project....





I had a blast making this project and hope you all give it a try and use aspects of the tutorial to make your own kind of Art!  Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today! xo

NEW! Video Tutorial Using 49 & Markets Vintage Artistry!


Hi All! I'm super excited to share my newest scrapbook page along with a free Video Tutorial on how I made this page!  I used the awesome new Vintage Artistry Paper Collection in the Sage colour as well as the coordinating embellishments ....Washi Tape! (LOVE!!) and Collage Layers (SO COOL!)

So enough talk....let's play! ...



I hope you enjoyed my video and really hope this inspired you to play with the new Vintage Artistry collection papers and embellishments!  Along with these gorgeous papers I also added some texture and color with TCW Modeling Paste and a Stencil I designed for The Crafters Workshop called Tile Mania...
....I also used some REALLY fun color mediums by Lindy's Stamp Gang!  They are color powders that really pack a punch!  And don't let the pale color in the pot fool you, when you hit it with some water, it activates color and shimmer like you wouldn't believe! These awesome little powders are called Magicals, and the two colors I used for this project are Ponderosa Pine Olive and Jana's Jade...


Here are a few close-ups and details so you can view them at a leisurely pace :)  ...I always like to see close up details of a project so here are some from this one!...


As many of you know I just love Dusty Attic chipboard and for this project I used 3 of their designs, Geometric Panel, Elegant Swirls #3 and Photo Strip.  I used some Prima green chalk ink to color my chippies and then added a coat of clear embossing powder and hit it with a heat gun to get the pretty glossy effect on the chipboard.


Another fun little detail I used in creating the background design was to use some stamps!  For this one I used a stamp I had designed for 49 & Market called Hibiscus/Thankyou. I thought the hand drawn floral outline and the script stamp added a nice natural element to the Vintage Artistry papers...


And finally of course the 49 & Market florals and embellishments add the perfect finishing touches!  Here I used 49 & Market Enchanted Petals in Mint color and their Stargazers (Cashmere)

Crackle Texture Background Design {TCW Stencil - NEW!!}


Hi All!  I'm not sure if my blog is working correctly but I'm going to attempt to keep adding some of my newest works on here!   I recently designed a whole bunch of NEW stencils for TCW (The Crafter's Workshop) for Creativation 2020!  Among them was this fun circle stencil we called Bubble-Rebound....


One of the samples I created using this stencil was done on a piece of 12x12 chipboard and using Prima Extravagance Crackle Paste and some of these wonderful NEW paints by Lindy's Stamp Gang called Squirts!


This is a fun quick way to design a background for your next mixed media project!  So grab yourself a cup of coffee and enjoy!....
