Morning lovely people
are we ready for a new challenge
good here you go 

That Craft Place
Anything goes

i went for a trio of 5x7 canvases


i really love making these little canvases
i get lovely and messy playing with all the paints and inks ,and colouring 
and fussy cutting keeps me quiet for hrs,lol


first all the dresses and flowers where printed onto the That craft place 300 gsm card, 
then coloured with copics and fussy cut.


next i moved onto the canvases, i picked one of my own photo's for each 
and printed then onto tissue, i then stuck these down with Deco Mache, (i love this stuff)

i then got lovely and messy drawing stamping inking etc,
i used acrylic paints on my stamps, i love the messy squishy look you get with it, 
and your stamps will be fine as long as you give them a wash straight 
away in warm soapy water. ( an old toothbrush helps to get right into the design and remove all the paint)


i finished each one off with a few spatters of paint,
 ( here again the toothbrush was very handy)

and then i stuck down all the elements with the fab cosmic shimmer glue.
everything was then given a coat of the Deco Mache to seal it all, ( this did slightly smudge 
some of the pencil drawing but i didnt mind adds to the overall effect i think.)


well i hope you  like them

hi you lovely lot,
we have a new challenge over at 
That Craft Place
as always its anything goes

a good friend of mine sent me this key hanger a while ago,
well my hubby is forever losing his keys so i decided to decorate it with 
one of my fave images from that Craft Place Etsy Store.

i have used

Muscovado Sugar



isnt she lush


this is 5x5 mdf with hook attached for your keys

i first layered with a piece of paper from do crafts Gorgeous girls range
i then stamped some kanban swirl flowers and flower heads in black perfect medium
i then dusted over them with mica powders




it gives a lovely shimmer, makes it kinda magical

the image is printed onto 360 gsm super smooth from That Craft Place
then coloured with copics, i added the yellow glow once she was glued down to the piece.

and there you go, one lovely kinda spooky key hanger 


  hope you come join in the fun over on the challenge blog
