Just a quick post to add "Twinkles" wall hanging with you all!  .x
 


Hi Folks, sorry my postings have been a bit sporadic, I don't know where the time goes!
I have a few pictures to share from the wonderful Tuesday Wednesday and Friday craft classes from the last couple of weeks.

The first two are using the lovely melting pot, beeswax, distress inks and paints- lovely and inky, I love Jens use of the colours, it creates a really  eerie mood!  (is that how you spell it)?
 

Again using the melting pot, fabric and beeswax, paint & distress inks- yummy!
 

 
 
Here we have a stunning card using the Gorjuss girl stamp- really pretty colours and clever use of the spellbinders die as a border. I really love this card J!
 
This stamp set is from kanban, it looks really fresh and funky, again Jennies colour matching is really fab!

This stamp is a Lindsay Mason "off the wall" design. Amazing results considering J didn't like colouring- but that's the beauty of copics!

The following 2 exquisite cards are by JW,  again using nestabilities, they are quite substantial cards, well I'd go as far as to  say they are a gift in themselves- really beautiful!

Well, posting these has taken me a couple of hours- so I better go and put tea on- sausage casserole, my sons favourite!
Have a good week
Bye for now. Alli x

Not a piece of patterned paper in sight!


Hi my craft friends, how are you all? I hope you are enjoying the cracking weather!

Well as I promised (Dorothy) here is something messy for you- crikey I made a right mess of my craft room and haven't yet learned to use my protective craft mat! (must remember to take craft mats to class on Tuesday!! (note to self)





 
For the first time in a long time I haven't used patterned paper- just good old stamping. The flowers are made from fabric, distress ink and spritzing inks (hence the mess)!
I even used lemon juice-(all will become clear on Tuesday) !I've also got out the melting pot at last to melt the bees wax, oh and teeny glass beads.

What do you think?

See you soon and take care
