Spring canvas : Paint week with Irit

Hello my dear crafty friends and welcome to Tando Paint week.
This is a really easy thing to make with Tando chipboard / stencils or a mix of both.


I decided to stay with chippies and used this card size canvas, lots of paints and some gorgeous Tando chipboards.
 The canvas was covered with gesso and then I glued all chipboards with gesso over gesso. When it was dry I just added a mix of acrylic paints ... with fingers. No brushes, rollers or even old credit card. Just my bare fingers. Dirty ones after the piece was made.

 I think that this can be done with kids too as they love to work with fingers and acrylics - not sure- are kids save. And if not- any other paint that is kids save will work.

Altered paper clips with Tando

This old wooden clips was  in my stash for ages. As this week we show  you Tando altered projects, it was a good thing to alter it finally.

I used Tando birdcage, covered with white embossing powder, a small rectangle bookplate covered with a lot of paint and heat embossed all over. Then I added the bird- blue bird of our dreams and this is a cute altered project that looks great on our desk.





Hope you like my use of Tando products this week and see you soon!

My Black and White Tando love

Hello, my dear friends! This is Irit here again and this time with my non traditional Valentine project.
Sometimes I am just in love with  some colors or designs and this post is all about it. I am in love with Black and White (also I don't craft a lot in those colors, but my outfits are mostly B/W), and I am also very much in love with Tando Creative mini chipboard printers trays. And this time I combined both my loves ti make this altered project for you to see. And as this month we have this B/W and a bit of Zebra  inspiration for our  monthy challenge here on Tando Creative- it was even more then perfect!


Product list:

Then embellish each section with whatever  you fancy: stamped vintage images, small  covered chipboards, flowers, lace, metals. I even painted small spools into black and white , covered the bird with some sparkle glitter, die cut black chipboard swirls, covered the sewing machine with black embossing powder and made this heat embossed frame.


Now you have a perfect Valentine gift in those non traditional colors.
So now it's your turn  to take our challenge and you can win some of those most gorgeous goodies I used for my project!

Mirror,mirror on the wall...

Helloooo, its Karen here again at last!!!  Now I started this project a few months ago and have been dipping in & out of it while involved in other things.  Its a tarted up Ikea frame I found in a charity shop for 50p....too good a bargain to miss eh?  I found that the Tando twinchies fit very neatly along the edges and, after painting & sprucing, I added lots of little Tando pieces....flowers, butterflies, frames, birds, hearts & a house.  Oh and that large frame is just perfect for the centre!


Sorry that I am in it....now I know how hard is it to photograph a mirror hahaha!!!  Thank you for taking a look....please leave a message to show you have been and don't forget the Tando Challenge will you. HUGS xxx

All colors printer's tray

I need to tell you that I am in Love! I am deeply totally in love with Tando printers trays. And as I want to keep this love longer and longer- I used only one third on my tray here- still have the base and 2  more for my next project
So this is " card style" tray, pretty flat, but full of Tando " goddies" on it
I used lot's of small Tando pieces here: part of the small Flowers, 2 stars, 2 clouds, a gate, scalloped rectangle piece, book plate, a bird and I just couldn't use more as I was out of space.
I covered them with all possible mediums: white cracled paint, white enamel paint, glitter, pearl glue, 3d glaze, smaped and 3d glazed, inked etc.
Here are some close ups



And here are Tando products used for this project
