Happy for Colour Blast

Hey Everyone

I love shaped canvases they are so much fun so for this post for Colour Blast Blog I used a round one

Don't forget about out checking out the the Kit Club all the details are on the Colour Blast Website

This is Jack my son he's going places he has a head for business and that's what he's doing at Uni for the next five years 

He'll do any work that's thrown his way at his job 

And the only other thing he loves more than his family is the gym LOL

I started with some Colour Blast Colour Paste Steel painting it with a paint brush 

I then dripped some Colour Artist Ink in Rust (my favourite colour)

 I then used some Colour Shimmer Dust Duke which I also painted on

I then ended up painting the Colour Artist ink Rust and the Colour Shimmer Dust Duke thicker and then spreading the Colour Paste Steel with a palette knife  

I love how you can still see the canvas detail

 So here's how the canvas looks after playing around for awhile trying to get things straight LOL not a great strength of mine 

 I used Flutterbydesign Stickers to add some sayings that suit Jack 

 I added a few Finnabair Mechanicals for some contrast

In the Centre of the bottle cap I added a Melange Art Pebble which I had painted with Colour Shimmer Dust Duke mixed with 3D Matte Gel

I also used a heart from Charms Creations they have some many gorgeous shapes in so many colours

I then added Art Stones randomly to finish off the canvas

Thank you for visiting and I hope you come back soon x

Christmas Star for Memory Maze

Hey Everyone 

Merry Christmas I hope you get everything you dream of from Santa and share the love with everyone

Today on the Memory Maze Blog I'm sharing a Christmas project of a special little girl who I did the same sort of photo last year so this year instead of round we have gone for a star 

With the lid of the tin I used Finnabair's Poppy Red Impasto so I didn't need to prime it

I used a sponge with the paint and it gave a nice stippled affect 

I also did the same with the back

Once it was dry I added some Art Alchemy Wax in Old Silver around the edge of the lid and all of the chipboard embellishments

Here is a close up of the Silver Acrylic Deer Head it has sparkle through the acrylic it's so pretty and my little friend in the photo has a deer on her top

I needed something to flow up the side and the Lush Flourish was perfect

I also added a transparent heart, a flat pearl bead onto a metal piece 

Underneath you can see a star from Charms Creations it's so pretty it has glitter in the material

The Wings I added to a paper clay clock that mum did for me 
 along with a few other paper clay pieces that are scattered around the star
I also used some small white flowers and some art pebbles which got covered with the Art Alchemy Wax as well

I love these Bling Tutu Flowers they are so pretty and the red worked perfect for this project
they also come in a few other colours so make sure to check out the site and get your local store to get them in

Here you can see I cut the Double Heart Vintage Frame in half and used it in two places

Here I used the LOVE from the So Rad Authentic Words set of words it just fit so nice

I Believe in ART for Memory Maze

Hey Everyone

This week on the Memory Maze Blog I created a mini canvas with a quote I thought most craft/art people would understand and appreciate 
Make sure to check out the Blog and take a look at everything else that's going on over there

I painted all the chipboard with white gesso first to prime it all for what I was going to do next

On the frame I used the Frank Garcia Artisan Powders to make the chipboard look like timber

The Colour Shimmer Sprays I used in Just Blue, Singing the Blues, Envy and Snow White I used to make my painting in my frame and add to the jar of water to make it look like it had been used for the painting and the Bling I used on the paper clay key hole I painted a few layers to get the depth of colour I wanted

 Colour Paste in Fire Engine, Sunshine and Singing the Blues not that you can see the Sunshine through the Paint Brush Stencil Jar splats to add to the art part of the canvas

It's a great stencil as it has the jar, the brushes and the splats 

 I also used the Colour Shimmer Spray Fire Engine Spray on the handles of the scissors painting it on a few times so it came out nice and deep and then used some Finnabair Old Silver Wax on the blades to make them look more like real scissors lol

On the border I used Colour Shimmer Cube Tangerine Dream 

I added a Heart from Charms Creations and a flair button from It's and Bits Craft Supplies 

And loads of flowers lol

B Fearlessly Authentic for Memory Maze

Hey Everyone

I started to do 5D Diamond Paintings and thought I'd like to put one in a frame and use a bit of mixed media with it

So for my Memory Maze Blog post this time I used another owl LOL what can I say I'm a bit obsessed with them   

With all the Memory Maze products I used silver leaf

I stared by adding a paper frame around the canvas 5D diamond Painting (which wasn't easy just saying)

I then used Mini No 5 Wire Stencil with texture paste once it dried I used Colour Blast Colour Shimmer Dusts in Lollipop, Sunshine and Peacock

Here you can see both the Wrought Iron 40 with the silver leaf which I glued with the Helmar Tacky Craft Glue 

Which I also did on Heart from the Globes and the B Fearlessly Authentic

Under neath the heart I used some Charms Creations hearts from two different packs and a paper clay piece that my mum made for me  

Here you can see some Petal flowers I've had for ever and thought this would be a perfect project to use them on 

I also used some metal that I've had in my stash 

The little bottles are filled with extra beads from other 5D Diamond Paintings I've done

And you can see the Super Pinned Bling there how pretty is it 

I also love flair buttons and am getting quite a collection and now thanks too It's and Bits Craft Supplies I've found a whole lot more to add to my collecion

This gorgeous tree of life was from a friends store that was a broken item she had

She thought of me which I'm so thankful for because it's so pretty and was perfect for this project
