Help for Memory Maze


Hey Everyone

My project for the Memory Maze Blog was created around the quote


Make sure you visit the Memory Maze Laser Cuts Store and see what's new 

And check the blog for all the latest inspiration the Team have created for you 



I had a timber frame and painted it with some Colour Blast Heavy White Gesso so that the Dylusions Paint in Cherry Pie



I used 3D Matte Gel through the Swirl Stencil onto some plain card once it was dry I painted that with Cherry Pie as well


When that was dry I scrapped some of the white gesso across the raised pattern so you could see it


I painted the Wrought Iron 22with some Art Alchemy Fresh Orange and glued it down with the Helmar Premium Craft Glue


With the Feather Flourishes I used the Art Alchemy Fresh Orange again and then glued them down with the Helmar Premium Craft Glue



I then added some flowers, a flair button and a journal card



Thank you for visiting and I hope you will visit again x

Fly for Colour Blast


Hey Everyone

Here's a little project I did using the Colour Blast Colour Pastes 

Make sure you visit the Colour Blast Blog and see all the awesome creations from the Design Team and look out for all the new products that are coming out
And don't forget we have a Colour Blast Kit Club make sure to check that out as well



I started by using the Heavy White Gesso on this timber frame giving it a good coat


I used the Colour Paste in Sunshine, Tangerine Dream and Blush trying to blend each one after the other (not that successfully but I think it still looks good) through this flourish stencil


After the paste was dry I used the string to wrap around the frame in every angle I could go 


I painted some paper clay leaves with some Colour Shimmer Cube Apple of Eye (are no longer available but you might find some online stores still stock them)


I just got this Colour Spray Carribean and it's so nice- it has a matte finish but it still pops 
I sprayed it onto this paper clay filigree 
I love the way it was depth it went into the grooves and stayed darker
I then stuck the quote onto it 


Added a few different flowers I think then end one is Prima and the other two are Little Birdie Crafts
You can see the paper clay leaves sticking out of the sides of the flowers  


The butterfly was a photo I found on the internet and just loved it I printed it out then fussy cut around all the white it had
I folded the wings up so it looks like it was flying


I then glued the butterfly to a metal ring that has flowers all the way around


I love this flower from Little Birdie with the Smile cabochon in the middle so I made the butterfly fly to that and used some metal leaves off to the side
   

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

Grateful Heart for Colour Blast

Happy New Year Everyone

I hope you're having a fun but safe New Years Eve

On today's BLOG for Colour Blast I created a canvas with lots of paper clay pieces stuck on 






I started off by painting the canvas with Heavy White Gesso


Then used some Helmar Premium Craft Glue to adhere all the paper clay pieces on (like a jigsaw) 
I then filled in some gaps with Art Stones and finished it off with another coat of Heavy White Gesso


Then I decided to make it colourful and I used the Colour Shimmer Dusts in - Paris, Peacock, Amber, Sunflower, Duke and Candy 
Flicking a little bit of dust before spraying water with each colour (trying not to make mud by getting the colours too mixed up)











Then I felt it needed some more shimmer so I mixed the Dorlands Wax with the Colour Embossing Powder -  Bling and used a  spatula knife to spread it around the canvas and into the little gaps 
I covered the heart all over as that's what stands out the most and I based my quote on



Thank you for visiting and I hope you have a very happy 2019 xx
