BBTB2 - Winter Canvas

 

Hello my crafty friends. Did you have a fun weekend?

I played in a parent/junior golf competition and then went out on my Christmas work's party on Saturday. Sunday was a relaxing crafty day..just perfect.

 

This week our wonderful Sharon has asked us to fire up our cricuts and make a Winter project.

 

 

I started with a 8 by 8" canvas and painted, inked,  added texture paste and glitter.

 

I used Snow Folks cut at 3.5"

DP - MME Tis the Season

Farmhouse Norland Paper Pack

 

I used gilding flakes and gilding wax which is hard to see the sheen in the photo.

Click here to see the tutorials for these.

I used various memory box dies for the trees and the pine needle border.

The star is from Dec 25th and cut at 2"

 

I was trying to show the dimension and sparkle from the twinklets stardust in this photo.

It really does sparkle and shine when the Christmas lights catch it.

I deliberately didn't ink the bottom of the canvas as I am not putting it on a wall but sitting it on a cream unit!

Thanks for stopping by.

 

 

 



                                                       

Snow Folks Gift Bag

Good Morning Friends,today is a new challenge over at BBTB2 . Frosty the Snowman is the theme and we want you to make a project incorporating cricut cut snowmen. It was fun to papercraft some after making so many real ones lately!

 

 

The gift bag is cut at 4" from Artiste and embossed,inked and enamelled.

A little distressed washi tape for interest.

 

 

 

The snowflake and snow peeps were cut at 3" from Snow Folks.

I cut a few snowflakes and glued them together to make it sturdy enough for inking and adding twinklets to.

 

 

A bit more inking and doodling and some 3d foam for dimension.

I used Ranger black enamel accents for the eyes.

 

My fellow team mates have lots of fabulous snowmen projects to inspire you so do pop over to BBTB2 and check them out.

Do come and join in the fun with us.

 Hello Everyone,a big welcome to my followers old and new!
I can't believe it has been 2 weeks since I posted! Lots going on at home at the moment. The builders are nearly finished and I am starting to paint ceilings etc inbetween work and family life! We hope to fit our new kitchen next week and then I guess we can think about Christmas!! Lol.

I haven't been online for ages and will catch up with you all as soon as everything calms a little!!

This week's challenge over at FCCB is to make a project with a snowman or snowflake on it. Don't forget there has to be a cricut cut on it.

Here is my card....
 

 

I cut my little guy from Snow Folks at 3" and added some embossing,inking and dimension.

The tree is a memory box die and I distressed a chipboard snowflake and added twinklets.

 

 

The DP is Snow Day by Bo Bunny and I added (of course as it's my fave thing at the moment!!) Stampendous's frantage chunky white enamel and powder blue fragments for texture.

The lovely sentiment is from White Christmas from My Craft Spot. 

White flower soft for the hat.
