Dangle Stamped Shrink Art - Couture Creations

 Hi all,

I adore the colours from the Twin Tip Alcohol Ink set and combined with the stamps from the You Go Girl & Homely Florals Collection, this month wowed me this project. 

How vibrant are these colours.

Stamped, coloured and fussy cut on the Shrink Art Plastic.

After the heat has been applied, the pieces shrink to 1/4 of their original size. The colour intensifies as well so darker colours will appear really dark. I placed the hole before shrinking.

Love the ruler from the Art Work Station as it is flexible and has the 0 in the middle for even marking on every project..  

They look fantastic against natural light.

The finished dangles ready to hang on something, perhaps a journal or a book..

Hi all,

Welcome to March with my Concertina Pull Card for Couture Creations.

I had a ball making this and even did a video for you though it is quite long. 

I have created this with lots of the gorgeous Alcohol Inks and the wonderful stamps from two collections Homely Florals and the You Go Girl. There are wonderful stamps in these collections and I really enjoyed using all the little ones for this card..  

Card opened which twist as you pull it open from both ends. So pretty!!

Card and belly band sitting on the brilliant little score board used for this card.

Memories Layout -Couture Creations

Hi all, 

HOMELY FLORALS COLLECTION

I am loving this collection from Couture Creations, it is so Australian with all our native flowers and my favourites to boot...

I created the layout using two photos I took while in the outback of Australia camping which was perfect with all of the Homely Florals Collection.. 

   After sprinkling some alcohol inks around the page and blowing them with the Alcohol Ink Blower, I adhered two die cut bases from the  CO728537 Santas Sleigh Tall Card Die Set after lightly stamping flowers on top to give some interest.

Loving the effect of alcohol inks on photo paper and acetate which I used as mats for my two photos.

I wanted to cut leaves from this little die from the CO 728664 Hugs Sentiment Die Set using the same COAPC2 Twin Tip Alcohol Ink Markers  as the flowers; so I scribbled them on plain cardstock and die cut them out..

Looking good here with the die cut banners and bow..

I coloured all the flowers and leaves with COAPC2 Twin Tip Alcohol Ink Markers and fussy cut the urn from the  CO 728658 Diecut Ephemera Set. You can see the little leaves in the background that I die cut from the scribbled backgrounds as above.. 

This stamp is quite large and I love it. I added it on a black chipboard scrap to make it pop and arranged it in a fussy cut urn. Loving the COAPC2 Twin Tip Alcohol Ink Markers ..

Isn't the background stamp wonderful, just a little is needed to bring the page together. 

A little Video to show you how I coloured some of the flowers using the

 COAPC2 Twin Tip Alcohol Ink Markers 

 I hope I have inspired you

to create glorious things

Hugs

Girls Feathered Layout - CC

 Hi all, 

How are we all heading into the last quarte of the year!!

I created a layout using the GO Girl Collection for my granddaughters. Lots of fussy cut flowers and feathers really help this page come together. 

Pop over to have a closer look on YouTube..

I love using Alcohol Inks.

This was so fun to do with chipboard feathers and the alcohol inks.

I thought I would give this a try and yep it worked so well which meant the string matched the papers.

You really cannot see this under the photo and flowers but you catch a glimpse when you move the page around.   

Fussy cut flowers and die cut daisies and dragonflies..

Loving the Alcohol Inks on this paper and can you see the splatter happening. 

Adore how these feathers came together with the Alcohol Inks and having the gold on top is perfection.. Tiny Gold Pearls along the spine just gives it a finish. mmm I wonder what else I can do with Alcohol Inks ??? 

Two dragonflies adhered together on the body allows the wings to have a 3D effect..

The finished page which I love...

 I hope I have inspired you

to create glorious things

Hugs

Secret Santa - AVSC

Hi all,

Wow I am stoked with the gift I received from my secret santa with AVSC..

I feel honoured to receive such an awesome album as I know the amount of work that went into this book.. It blows my mind.. 

I apologise for the crackle of the paper throughout the video, I didn't realise all of it until I was editing and thought bummer I ate some choccies now and it won't be the same lol

So it was a lesson learned for next time.. 

I love it.

Thank you Secret Santa
