Stencils and Starlights Trio

Hi everyone, Kirsten here again, I hope you had a great weekend. I've got two more of my August class sample cards to show you today, both very quick & easy to make. I used the Imagination Craft's Daisy & Peony Large Flower stencils, along with Claritystamp, That's Crafty! & Dutch Doobadoo stencils, Starlights paint & Distress Inks............

I first applied Spun Sugar, Scattered Straw & Squeezed Lemonade Distress inks on to white card through the Claritystamp Abstract Squares 3 stencil..............

I left the stencil in place, put the That's Crafty! Bubbly All Over stencil on top & applied Victorian Velvet DI through it............

Next I applied Blue & Sax Blue Starlights through the IM Daisy Large Flower stencil & finished with a piece of black card & a 7x7 white card blank.............

(No sentiment or greeting because I liked the large daisy as it was. I decorated the inside of the card instead, but forgot to photograph it).

For the second card I used the same Abstract Squares stencil with Ripe Persimmon & Picked Raspberry Distress inks & added Turquoise Starlights through the Claritystamp Bird Table stencil, painting the birds black...........

The sentiment is from Claritystamp's Line Sentiments 1 set.

The third card was even easier. Twisted Citron DI through the Dutch Doobadoo Wavy Stripes stencil, then Cyclamen & Bright Fuchsia Starlights through the IM Peony Large Flower stencil. The sentiment is from the Floral Collage Rose Elements set by Lisa B for Imagination Crafts.............

                          

Lisa will be on Hochanda with Imagination Crafts tomorrow, August 16. There will be three shows; 10am, 1pm & 6pm.

Thanks for visiting the blog today, have a great week.

Dutch Doobadoo Flower Frame

Good morning, Kirsten here. Not only is it Monday again, it is also JULY. How did that happen?? My project today is the wooden flower frame shadow box by Dutch Doobadoo & I forgot to take any step by step photos, apologies.

I painted the frame with yellow chalk paint & added scraps of Imagination Crafts Rice Paper 142, adding more paint with a baby wipe to blend in the edges of the rice paper. 

I applied more paint through the Craft Emotions Field Flowers stencil, then stamped the Woodware Small Fennel stamp set with embossing ink & heat set with WOW! British Summer embossing powder.

I used the crackle stamp from the Hobby Art Textures set on the frame, heat setting with WOW! Bluetiful EP.

The wooden embellishments are all from Craft Emotions, I painted them with Starlights & used various WOW! embossing powders with Melt-It in molds from my stash to make the hearts.

               

Before I go, just a reminder that Lisa will be on the Hochanda craft channel with Imagination Crafts tomorrow night & Wednesday, July 5 & 6, as part of the '12 Days of Christmas Crafting' event. Imagination Crafts are launching their BRAND NEW Starlights paints for TEXTILES!! 

Lisa & Sue made a video in Sue's studio to give you the first look at the new paints, you can watch it on the Imagination Crafts' Facebook page & there a few sneak peeks of Lisa's samples on the 

Imagination Crafts' blog.

Thanks for visiting the blog today, see you next time.

My Dutch Doobadoo Altered Clock....

|Good morning all,

I do hope that you are all well?.....

I am still on my hol's so this is a scheduled post from me and a bit of a quickie today.
I thought that I would show you today a clock that I made using a Dutch Doobadoo Clock Kit, Imagination Rice Papers and Script Art Stamp and gorgeous Hobby House Flowers.......

This is the kit that I used and then added a clock mechanism kit to it.

Dutch Doobadoo Clock Kit

I based up the mdf clock pieces using Art Deco chalk paint and then added bits of rice paper to the top of the clock. I then added gold Alchemy Wax to the edges. I stamped using White Gold Starlights and the Script Stamp on to the white face of the clock ( this is a piece that you stick on to the back of the clock ) and also on to the mdf base of the clock........

 

Pattern 115

I then cut out and added pieces of rice paper, flowers and embellishments and also a rice paper butterfly (coming in again soon) until I was happy with the composition. 

Lastly I finished off by adding some white gold Starlights with my finger to highlight areas, these really are my favourite little pots of loveliness to play with lately, I adore them....

Here is a closer look........

Well that is all from me for today.....

Have a lovely week all and I will be back next week.....

Hugs Lisa B xx
