Messy Hair!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (SDC 199)

Good evening, just popping on to show you some ATC's I finished a couple of days ago for a swap, the theme was shiney/metallic and I certainly won't over board lol.  It was one of those designs that was so fun to make, all the hair is metallic and I just cut off her crown before adding each piece of metallic embroidery thread.
I would like to enter the following challenges -
Stampotique Designers Challenge Blog - SDC 199 Shimmer and Shine
A Sprinkle of Imagination Challenge Blog - Anything Goes ( a picture is shown near the end of the post of how beautifully it was parcelled when I ordered this stamp from there, definitely will be ordering more Stampotique when there new website is up).
Fashionable Stamping Challenge Blog - Use a person or persons.

The background was white paint thickly through a stencil and when removed

Dylusion sprays and LSG sprays were used.  I added crackle in two corners

and when dried add treasure gold on top, the other two corners had glitter,

mica, micro beads added.

Her hair was embroidery thread which was metallic in red and a few

strands of gold, her face painted with Neocolor II crayons and gesso.

Her skirt is a gelli print scrap that had gold on it and her shoes and bottom

of her dress is Stickles. She stands on some glitter fabric in gold.

This is my parcel that had this stamp in it from A Sprinkle of Imagination (the online

shop is under construction until the 14th June , can't wait).

The parcel was wrapped in tissue, and had sweets inside, such a gorgeous gift,

even if you bought it yourself, it helps hiding it from the other half, Oh look

darling a gift from a crafty friend :-)

Right I shall be off, I am itching to get back to my crafty desk, I have all weekend of crafty play so really looking forward to it.
Happy Art

Good evening, just popping on to join in with the What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday and show my mega messy area again this week.  I have received two beautiful ATC's but I shall show them next week with mine as my swapee hasn't received hers yet :-).
So onto this weeks desks -

Been working on a DT piece which I just chucked something on top

to hide it before taking the pic.  The area is cleaner then it was an hour ago,

paint everywhere, just finished was all the paint brushes and sponges which you can see

at the bottom left of the photo.  I think you can guess what paint I have been using,

the new Dylusion paints :-).

Lots of things hanging about, my favourite paint drawer is open (my fresco 

paints which I store the dylusion ones on top as my other paint

drawer is full lol.  That poor tag is still hanging about, I still haven't blogged it

yet, poor thing.

Jars that I am decorating, that need to be re painted as I was splashing paint

around and as always forgot to move things and everything got covered.  

The houses etc are part of the DT, the tissue paper which is painted is ready

for it's highlights before going on the jar.  It took me ages to do all the

stencilling as I have tendinitis in my hand, I have a thing to put 

on it (which is getting covered in paint so I had to order and pay for another one

which isn't so painted up lol).  I am managing, but it's the constant dabbing with

the stencil brush that took lots of time (all the flowers and leaves were stencils not stamps).

Right I shall be off, will be back Friday with another post. Off now to continue with some more painting lol.  Remember last weeks messy hair that I was making, well they are done and been sent off to their recipients so will be showing them on here at the weekend.
Happy Woyww :-)

Online Friends (SDC 198)

Hi ya, just popping on to show you a envelope swap I did recently.  I actually did an envelope in a envelope in a envelope but today I am showing the smallest as it's my favourite stamp and that is the theme over at Stampotique Designers Challenge Blog.  I bought my first Stampotique stamp about 2 years ago which was a girl, then about a year ago I really got into their stamps and this was my 2nd stamp bought.  I think he is so adorable  and luckily I use him a lot as I do a monthly Stampotique ATC swap (on facebook HERE), I have now got quite a few stamps but he is used the most lol.
The Challenge number is SDC 198 - Favourite Stamp :-)

He looks so cute with googly eyes :-)

He was coloured with Neocolor II crayons with a splash of sparkle spray,

 and the backgroundwas using my fingers for blending Paperartsy 

paint then adding stencils.

Right I better be off, I shall be back tomorrow with WOYWW.  Thank you so much for visiting.
Happy Art :-)

Eeek think I probably showing you too much of the latest swap I am doing lol,

complete mess, sticking up with glitter in my hair!!!!!! :-)

I have two ATC's to send that I have just got the addresses for, so they

Right I am off to go and mess my desk up more, got to tackle that hair lol.  Thank you for visiting.
