Love Your Gorgeous Smile Embroidery Hoop for *2Crafty Chipboard* & Playing at *Lindy's Gang March 2024 Color Challenge*!!!

 Hello my lovely friends, 

I am so happy you are visiting my blog today for this post I made a embroidery hoop. I really enjoy working with all the pretty chipboard pieces by 2Crafty Chipboard. For this hoop I have of course used a photo of Abbey and I wanted to give you all a spring feeling with my hoop. Enjoy my post....

Love Your Gorgeous Smile:

2Crafty Chipboard used: 
Circle Dot Frames
Leafy Shrub Set 2
Arrow Word Set 2
Your Smile is Like Sunshine
Fine Word Set 2
Hand Drawn Flowers

I gave all the chipboard pieces two coats of white gesso and then I altered them in different ways. The title "Your Smile" was coloured with several matte acrylic paints and the word "Gorgeous"  I gave two layers of white embossing powder to make it a little shiny. I also did that with the arrow and the word "Love"

For the dotted circle frame I also altered it with matte acrylic paint & spray paints and when that was dry I added flatback crystals to match my embroidery hoop. The swirls and leaves are treated with some sprays, metallique paints & posca pens in different colours. I finished of my hoop by adding some white spray.

This is the color challenge at Lindy's Gang Blog beautiful colors & happy spring feeling. For this color challenge we had to use the pretty Alexandras Artists Magicals Set which has such gorgeous spring like soft toned colors that I could not resist playing.

Never Change Canvas for *** Lindy's January 2024 Color Challenge***!!

 Hello my lovely friends, 
Today I am here with you to share a mixed media panel, this time I used a 30cm by 10cm and I placed it on the side. For this canvas I used a whole bunch of moulds by prima marketing. I also used the magical shakers in diffrent ways I will explain that later in my post. For this canvas I didn't use a picture which is exceptional for me haha but I managed 

Never Change: 

I am a sucker for the sprays by Lindy's Gang I use them on almost every layout for this canvas I also used three of the sprays which I will list below. I am relative new on how to use the shakers but what I did on this canvas was....the branches I treated with some white gesso and whie that was still wet I added the magical shaker in the color {Gustav's Gold Leaf} and used my dabber to get it smoothly into the sureface then I added a little water and the {Alive & Kissing Cobalt} to get more depht in my branches. 

Lindys's Stamp Gang products used: 

Kissing Klimt Flat Shaker Set {I used all five} 

Gustav's Gold Leaf

Alive & Kissing Cobalt

Every Picture Teals & Story 

Das Werk Wine

Kissin' Couple Crimson

Frozen Jack Frost Shimmer Spray

Sidewalk Chalk Flat Spray

Blazing Black Flat Spray

On the background of my canvas I used some crackle paste & the other tree colors and also the golden color. On the cute little birds I used almost the same technique as I did on the branches but then I dipped my pencil in the powder and placed it on the birds for that I used the {Das Werk Wine & Kissin' Couple Crimson}

On both fames I used the watercolor technique so I added some water with some of the powder in a bottle and sprayed it on the frames then I dried it with a heatgun and the I added more powder and used a brush and some water...then I did that a couple of times until I had the color I wanted. 

Thank you so much for your visit I hope you like my work & if you would like to know something please let me know. 

Have a great day & much 

"Handsome You Canvas ***March Color Challenge at Lindy's***!

Hi my sweet fiends, 

I was so happy with the March 2023 color challenge at Lindy's that I had to participate. I love to make gruncy projects with gears but it's way out of my comfort zone as I am normally totally into sweet pink and soft toned papers & embellishments like flowers and such. I totally went overboard with the gears and I used a then and now picture of our 18 year old son Kevin. And I used some older prima marketing flowers that I sprayed in the colors for this month. 

Handsome You: 

When the new Sharon Ziv mould was introduced I so wanted to have it and I have to tell you it's amazing. The gears are threated with two layers of gesso and some rust paste and some of the beautiful Lindy's Spray's. The same three butterflies are by Renea Bouquet and the other two by Prima Marketing. 

The words handsome & you are sprayed with the Tibetan Poppy Teal Shimmer Spray and 

 Luscious Lime Flat Spray I really love the effect that the sprays give to the chippies and moulds. I treated the window with some crackle paste and later sprayed it with the two sprays above. 

I also used a finnabair stencil on the background and I made myself a new watermark I love how it turned out like my canvas. This was such a fun project to make hope you like it too....

Lindy's Spray's used: 
Luscious Lime Flat Spray
Tibetan Poppy Teal Shimmer Spray
Cowabunga Copper Shimmer Spray
Sidewalk Chalk Flat Spray

Look at this amazing mood board in my birthday month....

"Treasure That Smile" mixed media panel ***February Color Challenge at Lindy's*** & ***Prima Marketing DT Call***!!!

  Hi my sweet fiends, 

I was so excited about the the new color challenge at Lindy's that I had to participate a second time but now I made it all more shabby chic. I decorated a lp but in a smaller size for this project I used a baby picture of our sweet Abbey and a bunch of moulds which I colored with white gesso & lindy's sprays and I also used some pretty prima marketing flowers. 

Treasure That Smile: 

I decorated the panel with some tissue paper, two stencils, crackle & paper texture paste, Then I added some amazing moulds and of course chipboard by 2Crafty, Prima flowers and some artstones and beads.

I really love playing with my Lindy's stash a lot I use them on almost every project I make. I have a bunch of favorites of course like I think everyone has.

Sweet Love Thank you for being Mine canvas for ***2Crafty Chipboard***!!!

 Goodmorning sweet creative friends, 

Happy 2023 to you all, I hope you had a lovely New Years eve here it was rainy with lots of pretty fire works but I was in bed by 12:15 lol since my husband & kids all have the flue they were not in a festive mood. Since we now have Valentines day approaching I created a canvas with my husband as the center pieces well him kissing me that is. This year in April we will be celebrating our being together for 25 years. So you will see some more works of me in honour of that. 

Sweet Love Thank you for being Mine: 

2Crafty Chipboard used:

Berry Branch 

Festive Vine

Frame Handrawn Hearts 

All the pretty 2Crafty chipboard pieces are firstly treated with a layer white gesso. After that I added two layers of aqua embossing powders and one layer of pure white embossing powder on the berry branch & festive vine. BTW don't you just love the new collection by Prima Marketing called  "Aquarelle Dreams" you will see lot's more of that frome me for sure. 

On the berry branch I added less white embossing powder then I did on the festive vine since I wanted them to look slightly diffenrent from each other. In the end I added some crystal drops on the circles to give them more demension en also some white matte wax. The heart frame was painted with two different types of acrylic paint the first with a shiny finish and the second one with a matte finish. 

Sure hope you like my canvasses as much as I love making them. 

Stay happy & creative much
