snowman decoration

As i am still on my mission to use everything,i decided to make some decorations i got the discs in paris about four years ago .I paint the side with a blue paint i then covered both the front and back in scrapbook paper which came from a forever friends 6"by6" stack (whichi bought two years ago) and i used this lovely kim hughes stamp.To stamp the image i used tuxedo black memento ink , i stamped the image directly onto the dec first so that i had the arms and then i stamped it onto smooth white card coloured the heart and then coverd it in pink stickles ,added pink ribbon so that you can hang it on the tree.I am leaving the reverse side blank so that when i decide who its for i can either stamp their name or cut the letter out using my big shot.

Things to come

I know i havnt posted in a few days but i am making lots of stuff and hope to upload the pictures later.I have been trying really hard not to spend any money on crafting (well i can buy the essentials ) and its totally amazing that i am doing projects that i had the ideas for years ago. I am addicted to papercrafts and all the goodies that you can buy i also went through a major beading stage so i have loads of materials to work with. i would love to work in poundland as a crafter there is so much you can alter. well i off back to craft

christmas decoration

 

ok so i have had these small frames for years in my craft room and now i am on a self imposed ban on buying any more craft stuff until i use every stamp at least once, i am getting to do the projects i meant to. i covered the frame with paper from a 6 x 6 pad of forever friends papers, christmas tree embellishment i got at mad about cards at least 3 years ago.I stamped this lovely verse ( company to be added) and covered the back in red card to give it a neat finished look

a little bit of jewellery

This necklace is very easy to make just basic stringing but i think looks very effective

civil partnership

This was card a candle i made for a friend who was getting married in brighton.And just by chance i coloured the dickie bow pink and was the colour they were wearing, well at least it looks pink to me in the photos

A candle stamped using a penny black stamp coloured using watercolours and writing via a printer

Dominio brooch

Hello as i am trying to not buy any more craft stuff i am using up all the stuff i bought over the past 5 years. Much of which was bought with great intentions.
This is a plain dominio piece stamped with a penny black image and heat embossed. the whole dominio has been coloured with my pro markers and a little stickles added for christmas shimmer. A brooch fitting has been attached to the back with a heat gun. A very addictive little project so expect to see lots more
