Wings ......


 A set of Artist Trading Coins made for a swap over in UK Stampers Forum ......

The bases were die-cut to 2.5 inches diameter from re-cycled food packaging. I then chose some printed paper with glitter designs and die-cut this to fit. the papers were applied to the bases.

I then stamped some cloudy images in black Versafine ink. Next I applied some iridescent glitter fabric wings to the bases as shown and added the printed letters (edging with metallic green Posca pen.

Next I chose a rubber stamp image of a phrenology head from 'A Stamp in the Hand'  and stamped this in black Memento ink on white card, heat embossing with clear embossing powder. The images were trimmed out and applied over the wings on foam pads.

Finishing touch was to add an edge with turquoise Posca pen ......

Eye, Eye, Eye .......

 


Made a set of Twinchies (2 x 2 inch decorated squares) for a monthly swap over in UK Stampers Forum in the theme of 'Blue, Green & Yellow'.....

The bases were cut to size from re-cycled food packaging. I then chose some background papers and cut a green background along with a strip of blue. I added the papers to the Twinchie bases.

I chose some Washi tape (AAll & Create) and applied a strip at the top.

Next I cut some yellow printed paper down and stamped with an 'Eye' stamp (Stamp in the Hand) in blue Archival in edging the shapes in black Sharpie.. These were added as shown. I embellished the Twinchies with green & yellow self adhesive gems before edging with more black Sharpie to finish .......

Stars .....


A set of 6 inchies made for a swap over in UK Stampers Forum .......

The bases were punched to 1 x 1 inch from re-cycled food packaging. I then chose some green/blue  iridescent foiled paper and punched this to the same size applying to the bases.

I then chose a star stamp and stamped the stars onto the foiled surface with purple Stazon Ink.

Each Inchie was embellished with a self adhesive turquoise glittery rose in the centre. I added a dot to each star centre and edged each Inchie with yellow Posca pen to finish.

Hattie ........

 


This is an ATC made for a monthly ATC swap over on Crafty Individuals Facebook Group where this months swap theme was 'Christmas' .....

The base was cut from re-cycled food packaging to 2.5 x 3.5 ins. I then chose some Crafty Individuals text background paper and trimmed this to the correct size. It was stamped with a holly stamp in green Archival ink. The background was then added to the background.

Next, I chose a stamp from Craft Individuals called 'Where did the sun Go ? - CI- 569. I stamped this on white card with Memento black ink. I then trimmed out the image of the bird with scarf and coloured this with Distress ink washes in green and brown. drying with a heat gun. I then chose the hat and bobble from the other image on the stamp and trimmed out colouring with Copic markers in green and red.

The scarf was coloured in the same Copics and the image embellished with Glossy Accents. Once dry I applied the image to the card and then applied the hat on foam pads.

I added some red pearl drops onto the background holly, finishing the card by edging with red and green Posca pens.

I die-cut the cover (Tim Holtz) with an aperture and stamped again with the holly and green Archival ink, adding some more red pearl drops before assembling the cover.

Hopefully my swap partner will like the card ...... I really enjoyed making it !
