Messing with Mica

How lovely to see a bit of sunshine and its so warm as well....puts a smile on our faces. This week I have been playing with Mica powders for a class that I am running on Tuesday. I do love this medium, it is so versatile. Mixing, adding and painting with them. I decided to use them in a few different ways on these cards, the first colouring my paste and painting and the second on black glossy card. The pictures actually do not do the mica's justice.
Hope you are all enjoying your weekend and have a great week.

All girls together and mystical thoughts.

We had another busy week at the Kraft Kabin and made some lovely cards in our craft clubs. I also got round to taking a photo of my daughter Chloe's birthday card, from the beginning of the month. I have been playing with my Gelli plate using my new JOFY stamps and then today I had a play with my new Lavinia stamps...just love these. Hope everyone has had a good week and enjoyed the couple of days sunshine we have seen. Have a wonderful weekend.

A work in progress

I am working on this project at the moment for my sister who was 40 last year. Its a bit late..but as they say better late than never. I have got some pictures of the project as it is at the moment. The front is nearly completed and the side..........


I used just a blank picture frame from the Range and took the glass and back bit off so that it stuck nice and flat onto the front of the box.


I then stamped and distressed the picture to go into the frame


I added lots of texture and embellishment to the front.


 This is the side panel.

Hope you like it and all have a lovely weekend.
