1920's lady hand coloured Kraft party bag - Day 119 of my 366 day challenge

 Hi Craft Addicts!

 Day 119 of my challenge and for today have made something slightly different - this time I have decorated a Kraft bag to make a Party bag...
1920's lady hand coloured Kraft party bag
I first of all printed off the image of the Art Deco 1920's lady (I had decided on tall I would like it to be before doing so using Serif's Craft Artist Professional 2). I then coloured her in using Spectrum Noir pens - there is still so much to learn about colouring! I used CR4, CR5 along with brown for her hair and a lilac one for the hemline and shoes. 

 Once it was dry, I placed it on to some bright pink mirror card leaving a small border around it. 

 I then glued it to one side of the Kraft bag (which measures 27x17cm approximately) in the middle of the handles. I added a flower (a pre made small pink one from Hobby House) using my hot glue gun to a die-cut flower shape in black card and attached it to the top left hand corner.

 I wanted to decorate it a bit more so added some pink Nuvo Crystal drops on the top and bottom of the topper and cut out two "PARTY" words from Tonic Studios in white and when they were attached, I coloured them in using a Spectrum Noir Sparkle pen.

 And there you are - a different Party bag that would be fun for Hen Parties and much more..

Mother's Day flowers card

Mother's Day flowers card Hi Craft addicts! I really love using Tim Holtz's Distress Crayons and so I made this card with one of the designs I created. How I made this card:- I used Tim Holtz Ranger Yupo paper as the base for the flower design - I used his Orange, Yellow, Red and Brown Distress Crayons - just added a few flicks of colour to the paper and then quickly used my finger to spread it a bit...  I repeated the process several times, changing the size of the flowers slightly. Once I was happy with them, I then used a damp waterbrush to fade the colours out a bit. I also used some of the Ranger Blue and Green Distress Crayons to add a faded background to it. I trimmed the panel so it measured 3" x 4.5" and edged it with a Black alcohol marker. I then glued it to some Kraft card (American Crafts as it has a linen effect to it) and cut it so there was a slightly wider border around it. I attached the whole panel to the front of a 5"...

With Love Abstract flower in pink, black and white on hand coloured flowery background square card Hi Craft Addicts! Today's card is a result of using a background I have created myself using Tim Holtz Distress Crayons along with dies from Toni Darroch's Stamps by Me. How I made this card:- I had been playing with some Tim Holtz Distress Crayons to make the flowery background (it measures approx 5" square as the card itself is a 6" one - to do it, I used Spun Sugar and Picked Raspberry, experimenting with the "strokes"  I used - it took a bit of time to get the effect right - I used normal stamping paper this time rather than Yupo as it gives a totally different effect. I also used a paintbrush and some water to blend them in even more. Once I was happy with what I had done, I then added some green alcohol marker to create the stalks and some faded blue and yellow spots dotted around the pattern. I then edged it with a black alcohol marker. ...

Happy Birthday - Meerkat on desert background 7x5in card - Day 110 of my 365 day challenge

Happy Birthday - Meerkat on desert background 7x5in card -  Day 110 of my 365 day challenge Hi Craft addicts! I really enjoyed making this Birthday card - especially colouring in the background which I am pleased with how it turned out. How I made this card:- I had previously cut out a few of the Meerkats (a Tattered Lace die) using various cardstocks and thought that this Kraft card one would work well on a desert background. I therefore cut a piece of smooth white card to 110x145mm approximately and started to colour it in. I used Tim Holtz Distress Inks to do this-  Tea Dye, Dried Marigold and Rusty Hinge are the main ones used - making it darker at both the top and the bottom. I also added a hint of green to the centre of the panel. I then cut out the oval label panel in the middle of it (I think it was either a Tonic Studios or Tattered Lace die) - I also cut a similar panel using a darker Kraft cardstock. I stuck the large layer on to the fro...
