Farm Help for Colour Blast

Hey Everyone

Here's my latest project for Colour Blast Australia 

Make sure you check out the latest products from the store

And make sure to check out the Blog as there is always lots of inspiration from the fabulous Design Team there

I got these photos of my gorgeous God Daughter from her day at school where they dressed in farm type clothes to support the farmers and donated money towards it as well

She's not shy when having her photo taken if you can't tell 

I started by spreading Heavy White Gesso over the Spread Your Wings - Earth Angels paper to mute the black a little and for the  Lush Colour Shimmer Dust to stay on top of the paper and not soak through (that's what happens if you don't prime your papers)

I sprayed water onto the paper then dipped a brush into the Shimmer Dust, then lightly tapped the brush randomly over the page

Then with the spatula I spread the water and dust so it would mix and leave different shades over the paper

Here you can see I used different pieces of the Spread your Wings Collection and added the Lush Shimmer Dust to those as well

I had excess on the page so I swiped them onto it so they all got a bit of colour

I had planned on using these flowers on something else and had used the Soot Colour Artist Ink on them but had added extra water to tone them down then in the end didn't use them 

So I added more Soot to them and placed them on the page

 

I added some straw to give the farm feel and add some texture

And of course every layout needs some metal 

I also added some word stickers that I thought where just right for the photos and for Miss Sophie xx

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

Cancer for Memory Maze

Hey Everyone

This layout for the Memory Maze Blog is a special one 

My Uncle has been fighting cancer for a while now and just recently we found out he is in complete remission with no sign of cancer!

 I've kept the layout simple because of the significance of it

I used the Love this moment So Rad, Authentic words chipboard and the moustache from the Bike, Cogs, Clock Moustache Chipboard and the arrow from the Boho Skull and Feathers with Dreamcatcher Chipboard

 I used the  River Pebbles Stencil on a piece of cardstock with some modelling paste

Then sprinkled some Colour Blast Colour Shimmer Dust in Duke with a paint brush and then I sprayed it with water

To embellish I wanted to put a clock and a compass to show life is short so make the most of it an enjoy the time you have and go where ever you want x

Make sure to check out the Facebook page and the rest of the blog for lots of inspiration

Products I used from the Memory Maze Website -

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

Hello for Memory Maze

Hey Everyone

Yes it's another owl but I can't help it I just love them and this one is very cute LOL 
This weeks project for the Memory Maze Blog I used a Printers Tray they are so pretty and you can do just about anything with them
I love how they have the different shaped sections in them and if you really want to you can cut some of the chipboard out to fit what you need in
Make sure you visit the Memory Maze Blog and check out all the great inspiration from the rest of the Design Team each week and see all the latest Chipboard and other goodies that are put out for your favourite store to get in stock

On each feather I used a different stencil using modelling paste as you can see (links below) just to add some interest rather than leaving them plain

On the background of the Printers Tray I used modelling paste with the Wire Stencil for some dimension and texture

On the back ground of the I used Colour Shimmer Dust Lollipop

With the feathers I sprayed (I have these colours already made up as I seem to use them a lot) some Colour Blast Colour Shimmer Dust Cobalt, Lollipop and Sunflower they all mixed and made a few different colours which I think added extra interest and is also what I used on the Boho Skull and Feathers and lace border too  

You can see the textures on the feathers

This feather arrow was from the Boho Skull and Feathers and I use Colour Paste Sunshine on the larger feather

I painted the outside of the Printers Tray with Jade Impasto 

This is one of the Acrylic words that Memory Maze make they also have a whole range of different shapes as well 

The Hello also comes in chipboard I love this font

I won a prize from joining in at White with 1's monthly challenge from The Resin Rainbow and this gorgeous lace border was in the pack it was a pale pink and it didn't really go with my project so I  did the same thing as I did with my feathers and the colour shimmer dusts 

And of course there had to be and owl somewhere

And to finish the project off I went around and added silver micro beads with some Helmar Super-Tac Glue
