Triple Tags!

Helloooo!  Tags...usually these end up decorating my craft room but these have been made to actually use on presents :D   I had some scraps of home decorated paper that I used at bases and went from there.

The Sewing Tag - I used my lovely friend GIOVANNA'S SPIRAL MASK and dabbed blue over it onto the background to give depth.  Then I decorated the COTTON REELS & SCISSORS, used a scrap of lace and a PC generated saying.  This mask isn't available for retail yet but you can buy it from a supplier.

These are available in small or large...

The Steampunk Tag - I used some Sparkle Medium through Tando's COG MASK for this one.  The HEART is from the Mini Range and has been painted & glossy accents added.  Some stamped wings, word and a little tag finish it off.

You get loads of these hearts in a bag...

The Flower Tag -  used Sparkle Medium again but through a lovely LONG FLOURISH MASK.  I added a painted & sparkled BUTTERFLY and finished off with paper flowers and a stamped saying.

 

All but Gio's mask (will be soon) are available on our RETAIL SITE so grab a cuppa and have a good browse, especially at our Christmas goodies and new designs :D

Thank you for take a look today, Karen x

A decorated box for the ladies!

Hi lovely people!

Today I have a pretty shaped wooden  box to show you that I have decorated.  I used what used to be called 'Ashes of Roses' colour, or is it still called that?  Its a lovely soft muted pink.

In reality its PaperArtsy Pansy that has been watered down to create a wash.  The bottom lip has been painted with Vintage Lace.  The square frame from Tando has also been painted with Vintage Lace while the Mini Butterflies have been painted with a mixture of both.  A crackle stamp adds more subtle detail.

The naked versions...

Thank you for taking a look today, take care out there, HUGS , Karen xxx

Winged Things - Birds from Balloons

This week  we are all about the winged things, so I made this card:

I took 2 balloons from the ~{Grab Bag of Balloons}~, which is not the Mini's, and cut the ties off, then painted them with Paperartsy Fresco paints, adding highlights and doodles once dry.

The wings are from the ~{Mini Butterflies Pack}~ cut in half and painted. I've stamped the wings and doodled on them.

I've doodled on the card for the beaks and legs and added googly eyes for them, before stamping the greeting.

Don't forget to keep coming back to see what the rest of the team have made.
