It's Wednesday again so head over to the Challenge Blog to see who is showcasing their project.

Paper holder with book cover leftovers: useful art

Hello my dear crafty friends! Irit is here again and this time to show you my project made from  Tando leftovers  and a lot of imagination. 

So please welcome my ready to use card holder made with some pieces left from my previous book cover project. As you can see I glued the chipboard  panels I didn't use (I used just two of them) to this really cool useful piece of art.

The panels were painted , stamped and inked and then I used a regular hot glue gun to connect the pieces.

Hope you like this project and see you soon again!

Desert Arch - Black and Brown

Hi Tando fans! Dana here today wrapping up the Black and Brown theme this week. I started with an Arabian-Style Layered Arch Frame and created this nighttime desert scene with some of my favorite song lyrics and a camel stamp. I added lots of sparkle with iridescent gold paint and several colors of glitter glue.

I used a portion of the Neil Walker Geometric Book Cover Kit for the sand and added a Mini Star to the night sky.

The lyrics are written by Chris Cornell for the Soundgarden song Burden in my Hand and read:

So follow me into the desert as thirsty as you are. 

Where the moon is glued to a picture of heaven...

Thanks for stopping by today!

Black and brown with Irit

Hello my der crafty friends and welcome to our Black and Brown week. 

Actually my art book cover has some green  and a lot of metal colors, but then the overall look is a kind of brown and it's a totally Tando creation made with a gorgeous  Ancient book cover  kit.

The background is stamped, heat embossed and painted over the embossed metal pieces and the front  chipboard panels are painted and then heat embossed over the edges. This color combo is great for vintage pieces and metal are very trendy now, mostly bright gold and copper.

Hope you like my  art cover and will try some similar with Tando delicious book kits.

Brown and Black card

This colour week was a real challenge for me as it's black and brown. It seems I don't have any brown paint!  I could have sworn I did, but I couldn't find it so I had to improvise to make this card:

I started off with my new favourite stencil ~{Grid Round}~, then painted 2 leaves from ~{Mini Leaves 2}~ and a  ~{Mini Butterfly}~. I've stamped the leaves with  white paint and the butterfly with a text stamp. I added more paint over the text stamp as it was too bold.

The tag has been assembled with text paper and a flower and stuck over some washi tape. I then went mad with white and black pens and a greeting stamp.
