metal inchies

I was doing a swap called glittered inchies and made these from metal.My 1 inch punch cut most of them easily as long as the embossing wasnt too thick.What a great way to use up bits.They are all moulded onto moulds and I really liked using small parts of a mould.

Fusible fiber project

Here is the inside-I stamped on various colours leaving them as wispy as I could.the lining is done with a cuttlebug folder







This is the front of my angelina project.I have fused the fibers into sheets and cut out little corners for embellishments.I have tried to use the angelina in as many different ways as I can

Metal ATCS

I have just made these by hand.The use of embossing folders seems to give brilliant results which are very sharp butI felt like being more creative.Being naturally untidy I find this incredibly difficult but at last I feel I have managed to get a resonable result.I think I have been over resining before.

Vilene tiles

I Spread gesso quite heavily over the Vilene using a brush. Then I drew a motif on the surface with the kebab stick.I sprayed with some radiant rain.I was meant to paint the lines with ink which dry to a pale grey,having nothing suitable I used a silver sharpie.I added extra paint and edgings and was then ready to create 3 ATCs.

I think I deviated from the instructions after this as I used one piece as a background and one kite shape for another and lots of circles for the last one.I think I was meant to use just 3 slices one on each ATC.

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.
