Relax, Calm, Unwind Tryptych of 3 small MDF panels home decor.. Hi Craft addicts! Well, I have had this MDF panel for ages (to be honest so long that i can't remember who produced it and decided I would experiment with Glitz Craft pastes, a stencil and a sentiment stamp. How I made this project:- I first of all took out the 3 small panels from the main panel and painted the latter with Imagination Crafts Antique Pink paint. I left it to dry once and then gave it another coat. I then used a Black Gesso (there are many Companies who do this such as Pebeo, Pentart etc) to paint the three small panels, giving them a couple of coats to make sure both back and front were covered. Once they were all dry, I then used an anti static pad to clean any dust/moisture from one of them and stamped the Relax, Calm, Unwind sentiment on to it in the centre using Versamark sticky ink - I then added some white Embossing powder and heat set it. I took the two remaining panels and pla...

Just Because Black A5 top fold card  with Glittery Unicorn .... Hi Craft addicts! I was so pleased with how this card turned out - I love the Glitter/Satin pastes and stencils from Glitz Crafts. So find out how I made it here.... How I made this card:- I used some low tack stencil tape to attach the Unicorn mask (see below to see where the products come from) to the front of an A5 Black top fold card. I then used one of the spatulas that come in the pack to spread the paste over the Unicorn. As you can see,I used three different colours to give a more interesting effect - two are Glitter Frosted and one has a Satin effect. I removed three sides of the masking tape to check that the Unicorn was ok and as it was, I took the last piece of tape off and put the card aside to dry (it takes about 10-15 minutes). Whilst it was drying, I then took the Just Because sentiment (from a Birch Press Designs set) and stamped it on to a piece of card that I had previously p...

You Bring Sunshine... Bamboo and moon glitter 7x5in Kraft Card Hi Craft addicts! I hope you had a brilliant Easter and enjoying the sunshine! Today's card for the 100 day project is one I really liked making using Glitz Craft paste, an embossing folder and a sentiment stamp. How I made this card:- I wanted to used one of the latest embossing folders from Creative Expressions (Narrow Woodgrain) and found I had a piece of cream Adorable Scorable card and used that to emboss it. I then used a brown Tim Holtz Distress Oxide ink and spread it on to the card to highlight the grain and left it to dry. Whilst that was happening I used low tack stencil tape to attach the Bamboo stencil to some white stamping card and used Green and Sand Glitz Craft paste through it. Once I was happy with it, I also left that to dry. I trimmed it so that it measured 9x15cm and edged it with a brown alcohol marker. I then stuck the panel on to some Gold Mirri Card using Collall All Purpose Gl...

Sugar Skull image on hand coloured label tag card -  Day 247 of my 365 day challenge HI Craft addicts! I have made this card using a stencil, a hand coloured background and Hunkydory papers. How I made this card:- I had coloured the label tag a couple of weeks ago using watercolour inks and had wondered what to use it for and when I got this sugar skull stencil (from Glitz Crafts) I realised it would be great for it. I placed the stencil over it (it is just the right size) and used Pure Graphite Altenew ink through it. I glued the label on to some Hunkydory Red Polka Dots paper (from their For The Love of Stamps series) and trimmed it to fit and then edged it in a black alcohol marker. I then attached that to a piece of black cardstock (Lynda Chapman's World of Paper) and again trimmed it to leave a slightly larger border. Finally, I used the reverse of the paper (red and white spots) to create a larger background layer and placed it on a 7" x 5" white...
