Dominos Swap!

These are the dominos I have made for the Dominos Swap. I used TH inks and stamped the images using black Stazon. I finished by edging the dominos with gold Krylon pen. Some have gems on.

Christmas Fat book pages

These were the last 5 pages I needed to make for the Christmas rubber stamping fat book list. I used TH inks for the background and the images.

Canvas Crazy! ..... the second!

Again for Lesley's birthday. I have used TH Ink pads, Stazon and some crackle paints. I have also popped on some embellishments along with a flower I made using my Melting pot.

Fat Book page and ATC

This was also for Lesley's birthday. I kept the face theme and used stampbord to create the ATC and Fat book page. I used TH ink pads and Stazon ink to stamp the image.

CD Tin

I made this for Lesley's birthday. I inked the tin with TH Inks and then covered a 2in x 2in piece of card with copper TH dabbers and stamped an image on a piece of glass. I then dribbled some embossing power mix from my heat pot around the edge of the glass to make a frame. I then stuck this to the top of the CD tin. I covered the CD with Copper dabber and inks and placed a circle of stampbord in the centre which had been inked with distressing inks and stamped with Stazon.

Bind it all Spring Book

I have made this for a friends birthday using my bind it all. I have used some lovely DCWV spring papers and some embellishments. I have used other mediums too like jigsaw pieces and Mountboard. I liked the finish, it made a change to do something in bright colours.

Canvas Crazy!

This canvas is for a friend's birthday. I have used pink and blue ink pads for the background and have randomly stamped over the front and the edges in different browns. I have then finished off with some embellishments. Hope she likes it!

More Ladies!

I have made a matching Fat Book page and an ATC for a friend's birthday, but I also thought they would be part of the Sunday Stamper challenge. I have used mountboard for the ATC and Card for the Fat book page. I have used some petal chalk ink pads for the background and the stamps. Embossed in gold around the edges and used some beautiful vellum which I've torn to partly cover the background. I then finished off with some eyelets in the corners which I coloured gold using my Krylon pen.

Sunday Stamper - Ladies

This is my first time joining in with the Sunday Stamper so I thought I would do a couple of cards. Both images have been stamped using Stazon ink on to hand made paper. One is then backed on to a different colour hand made paper and held together with eyelets. The other is backed on to metallic card. I have mounted both on to hammered card which have been edged with matching inks. I then popped on some embellishments to finish off.

Time After Time

This is my second entry for the Artistic Stamper competition. I love the stamp so much I thought I'd have another go! I have gone for an ATC again made of stampboard. I have used Tim Holtz inks to cover the background then stamped over using brown Stazon. I used another bit of mountboard, a circle and used some of the same inks for the back ground and stamped the clock image on to it and edged it with gold Krylon pen. I scratched out some of the image and then put diamond glaze over the clock face. I stuck this so it just overlapped the edge of the ATC. Then I added some mechanical clock pieces some wording and used wax and a clock seal. Lastly I added some ric rac ribbons.

Book of Hearts

Well I think I must be in to hearts and Love at the moment! I love altering chipboard books and when I saw this heart shaped book at the NEC I knew I had to have it! I have covered the pages with papers from creative imaginations and DCWV "all dressed up". Wow!! what fab papers! I have sanded the edges and then embossed with silver. I have used all sorts of mediums, stamping, embossing, chipboard, stampboard, Tim Holtz grunge boardand some ribbons and metal bits and bobs. I loved doing this and hope you enjoy looking at it. xx

ATC - Time Goes By

This ATC was for the challenge that Jennie from Artistic Stamper set. The clock stamp is stunning, just the sort of stamp I like. I decided to do an ATC for the challenge as I have not done one for a while. Well I could have kept going I enjoyed it so much! I used stampboard for the ATC and inked it in a beautiful bright orange ink. I then stamped over it which the stamp using black stazon. I then scratched out part of the finer detail in the stamp. I stamped 4 clock images with white Stazon on to black shrink plastic, I cut around 3 of them and left one square. The square one I attached to some thread and then attached that to the corner of the ATC. I glued the other 3 to the ATC. I then popped on some words. I am really pleased with the results. I hope you like it Jennie. xxx

The Little Treasure Box

I have called this the little treasure box because to me that's what it looks like :-) I have used TH paints on the box in gold and black and used Stazon to stamp my images. I coloured the inside of the box black so that the dominos would stand out more. I have used a gold Krylon pen to colour in two chipboard letters and edged them in black paint to age them. I have put them on top of the box along with a metal emblishment. For the dominos I used 3 colours of TH inks and then stamps on to them with black Stazon. I went around the edges and the black of the dominos with the gold Krylon pen and then fished each off with a little gem or charm. The two letters are the initials of the person I will be sending it to :-)

More Black and White!

Keeping with the Black and white and Paris theme for Andrea's birthday, I have completed a matching Card, ATC and Fat book Page....... well you must have the set!

Paris Mini Book

The second of my mini books, but this one is on the theme on Paris! This was also for Andrea's birthday so I have kept to the black and white theme too. The covers are in mount board and black and white papers for the pages. UTE power used on the covers. This has a little page divider made with black ribbon which has a charm on the end. Some bits and bobs on the pages and finished off with a little charm.

The Star Book

The star book was made for my friend Andrea's birthday. I love black and white! This has some silver in it too. Again I've used some mount board, along with some jigsaw pieces. Used some papers to cover the front and back and paints for the pages and to stamp in the bakgrounds. Stazon has been used for the images on the stampboard etc. I then finished off with some different wools and attached them to the silver rings.

Orential Card, Atc, Fat book page

A few more bits for Denize xx Loved doing the ATC and matching Fat Book Page, can't stop using stamp board at the mo! Just love it!

Beautiful Pink Bag

For Denize, a lovely pink bag, I loved covering this and adding the ribbons, bit of distressing and we're there! So much fun!

Little Oriental Book

The 7th February is my good friend Denize's birthday. I wanted to make something special for her so I made this little oriental book. I started with some fabby papers and 2 pieces of 2" by 2" stamp board. I used ultra thick embossing powder mixed with some black embossing power and did about 3 layers on each piece of stamp board, this was quite difficult because it takes the stamp board a while to heat up and the power blows everywhere! Anyway on the last layer I added some gold power and while it was still hot inked up an oriental stamp with red stazon and stamped in to the powder. I painted up some chipboard letters in her initials using gold paint and stamped over them used the red stazon, added them to the covers along with some words which I dabbed with inks. For the pages I folded some beautiful papers and added embelishments to them. I then added a beautiful clasp to finish off the book. I am so pleased with it I hope she likes it. I have also made some other bits for her..........
