Shine a light

Shine a light

Had an odd tumbler in the cupboard
decided it needed binning,
but thought "hello, might be able to alter its use
and enter a couple of challenges."
Great with a tea light or as a pen holder on the desk.

The pattern has been worked on a single sheet of parchment then fixed to a coloured sheet before being attached to the tumbler.






















Got the pattern from "Parchment Craft" magazine.
Design by Patricia Vachon

Collage art

Collage Art



This is my attempt at collage art

It's an A4 piece of hammered white card. 

I used distress ink (victorin velvet) through a piece of sequin waste for the background.

2 flowers cut from my cricut, 1 gem, red string for the top embelishment. Lace ribbon, scrap paper with latin and distressed (walnut stain).A digi stamp matted on white and black. I used the sequin waste and a piece waste from cutting 200 holes on the cricut. A black tag, peel off and florists ribbon to finish this masterpiece.

 

I am entering this into the

Craftroom challenge

Just for you

Been away for awhile, when I say away I've been decorating really.

I think I may have finished but you never can tell.

 

 

The 2 larger butterflies are first stamped on the base card and then onto velum and embossed, then decoupaged.

The smaller butterfly is done on shrink plastic. 

All in all I've used 4 stamps.
