Metal squares swap

We have all been swapping metal squares.this is how I displayed mine.They look lovely hanging up.So thanks to all who sent me one.

Old and new swap

The old was the stamp which I love.The new was some christmas tissue paper.I decided to make some caught in crystal with polished pigments.Anyway then i made a frame with grungeboard and painted it with ferro and cosmic shimmer paints.The final touch was an embellishment.I hope Annie likes it.

Abstract painting

A friend of mine came to art class with her offering from a course she did.I thought I would have a go at something abstract having all the required craft materials in my cupboard at home.I am so glad I had a go as I really really like this.It is coloured with starburst stains and mica inks.I used a variety of gels and tissuse papers and some silver beads and embossing powders.

Messing with metal

This is my fiest real go with metal.Freehand I am not that good as yet but the ones done with my wizard are really sharp.They are for a swap.I had fun colouring with paints sprays and inks.

Digital work

I have been doing an online course with jessica Sprague.I was quite pleased with this.The brush is from Annikaavonholtdt and the frame was course material for a previous course but I coloured it.I was thrilled with the graded shading on the brush which I did.

My very own mould

I wanted to create my own moulds for clay and have been wondering how to proceed.First I stamped into fimo to make a leafy background.Then I cut out a lozenge shape and baked it.

Clay base with embellishments

here is an idea of how this looked-the bits have since fallen off.Anyway its the previous stage with bits added.This is what I pressed into the mould compound.
