Skeletons are perfect birthday card fronts for special people; like this one for Betty. Here are the items I used for my creation: Lost Coast Design Stamp    Gel Print    Paper    Ink and Paint    Embellishments    Collage Images and Text    Stencil    Using one of my gel prints with a lot of texture... ... I stamped the image with Stazon ink. Using a stencil I layered Pan Pastels: Using the fabulous images AlteredPages.com has, I inked a quote and cut it up and trimmed around another transparent image: Then I layered everything from mediums, paint, inks, paint pens, etc... Finally finishing off with embellishments and Stickles. I had so much fun with these great rubber stamps from our Product Partners this month. Show us what you created! Ciao for now, -Trish Alger

Fancy yourself a goat?  Decoupage is possibe many different ways. In this particular project I can have some control over the content. I used: Lost Coast Designs Rubber Stamps    Stazon Ink    Paper    Medium    Wood object to decoupage on    Stickles    Stamp your image of choice onto paper. Ink it to your tastes. Fussy cut it. Use medium over image and set aside to dry. Paint or draw or ink over image again if you wish. Medium on object, place image, more medium. Let dry. I used parts of the rubber stamped image to create more interest.  There you have it. It is ready to hang.

Beautiful Glamper  from Foundations Decor. This wooden shape is solid, well made, and accepts mediums well.  I wanted to use fabric and fibers . Into my stash I go: Tracing for sizing. Fabulous: One adhered  for each side and piping around the edge.  I did the other pieces as well, but ended up liking this shape the most. Thank you for joining our Design Team and our Product Partners for the month of June: Ciao for now, -Trish Alger

My home has always been wherever the love of my life is. When my husband and I married in 1984, that is when my life truly began. I used the following: Foundations Décor Sweet Heart House    Printer Copy of Picture and Text Paints and Pastes and Mediums      Inks    Stencils    Hardware Foundations  Decor   Sweet Heart House   was the perfect blank canvas to celebrate our 33 years. Instead of transferring one of our wedding photos I decided to just decoupage a printer copy of a picture.  I also printed the text on the printer and then got to work. Next I added some texture with paint and mediums through a stencil. Back as well. Also painted the heart. I used the following as well as pastes. The back of the house: The front of the house: I love the tones and the texture of this piece.   The bracket adds dimension.   Thank you for perusi...
