Enjoy Every Moment decoration frame with CAS- ual Fridays

Hello my dear crafty friends! Irit is here today and I welcome to my new post made for CAS- ual Fridays  blog.

This time I decided to use CAS- ual Fridays stamps and die to make a lovely and totally easy to make home frame.

I got this black and white plastic frame for free and it was almost in the trash box. But then I've seen these CAS- ual Fridays Sands of Time 2 and Hourglass Fri-die on my craft table and BINGO!

This stamp set was a perfect match for this frame.

The central part is the main image that was first stamped and heat embossed and then die cut with the matching die.It was glued with 3d foam glue and the top and bottom die cut strips were inked with the same red ink and heat embossed with clear embossing powder.  

The upper and lower parts were used to stamp the sentiments from the same stamp set.

Everything was stamped on one single long white cardstock strip. Then the whole stamped strip was misted with light pink mist and added to the frame from the back (as it should be with photos).

Here are the CAS- ual Fridays products used to make this project:

And now to some close- ups for this project:

I hope that you liked my altered frame and remember- this stamped over the strip technique can be done with the hand made or die cut film strip frame too. 

See you  again in like two weeks!

Have a great crafty day!

Tando Summer door hanger

Hello my dear crafty friends and welcome to my new altered project.

It still time to make a  Summer project and mine is this totally bright door hanger.

I used a couple of Tando masks to make the heat embossed background and worked with DecoArt Media line paints and mediums to make the background as shiny as it looks.
The chipboard shapes were painted and then covered with clear Crackle Glaze.
The birdy was covered with white crackle paint.

Can you see the difference of those two mediums? The glaze comes over the paint. The paint is covered with another paints/mists over the dry surface.

 I also added the ceackle glaze over the edges and inside the " white spaces" and you can see it shown.

Hope that you liked my small  Mixed Media project!
Happy Summer to anyone where  Summer shines!

Nautic shadow box

Hello my dear crafty friends and welcome to my first May Art Anthology project.

I am a big fan of cheap $ store products that can be altered and embellished.

So with Art Anthology great paints, colorations and stencils I made this Nautical shadow box and as you can see it looks fabulous!

I decided not to cover the inside of the shadow part with paint and the white space makes the inside stencilled piece to shine.

Here are some close - ups to this piece:
