Pure Love

There is no other love, like the love for a child.

We were out for Hubby's birthday and as usual I was taking
Photos of every one and everything.

When I went through the photos, this one caught my eye, of my Brother and my Nephew.
My Nephew is absolutely adored by his parents, and enjoy every moment with this
little miracle - (Eventually Blessed with this baby boy) -  IMAGINE that!

I love photos like this, cos they don't stay small and they outgrow (literally) the lap.

I sit and think to myself: Can you Imagine that

With this photo in mind, I created the Mixed media page below:

Used most of #Celebr8 chippies, masks with texture paste and their paper (Snap it)
I also used #Simplestories #aCharmedlife "bits and pieces"
I used Gesso first for the background and then the edges of the layers of paper.
I layered, textured, inked and painted and then placed it all on the page.

This was a quick project, with no idea what to do. So..... I just started with Gesso
and started layering and before I new it, I had this awesome page -

A BRILLIANT MIXED MESS - Pure love, belief and happiness

Good day happy Scrappers

Here again .. in such a short time... to share one of the many
Projects I was busy with.

I made a canvas using Masks, texture paste, stamps, Celebr8 chippies , flowers from Celebr8 Snap it embellishment pack and stamped acetate.

I had so much fun and it turned out better then I expected.

I love the products that our local wholesalers supply, awesome quality and fun.

I stuck, textured, Gesso'd and stamped, then I sprayed with Dye ink spray, painted and
highlited...

#celebr8
#celebr8rocks

I used all pastel colours, I Gesso'd the flowers where necessary to make them lighter.
The sentiment is painted with Black soot Dabber and the acetate is stamped with a butterfly using Memento Ink pad - Tuxedo black

Hope you enjoyed..... I really enjoyed making this

Clean Mess

Good day All you Fabulous Crafters

I have been quite on the blog front, been busy with all my projects.

When I get a bee in my bonnet and I want to try something,
I just want to finish it and see what I have created.....

My first project this last week, is on Canvas:

I enjoy mixed media and we all get to this step, and then we ink and spray and
brush and highlight and spray again. I decided to stop here and...

Let your IMAGINATION GO WILD ....

Just think of what could be done to this Clean Mess.

I hope you like what you see.

I used masks, texture paste, chippies, doily, flowers and resin molds

I stuck everything down and painted it with a couple of coats of Gesso and
Acrylic white paint.

I wrote the work Imagine in the resin mold and filled it with Dimensional glaze

I just love it, it came out so well, and is perfect for a neutral room or for a gift.

I have entered this into the following competition: Click on the pic for a link to their site.

Mixed Media

Hi All

Hope you are enjoying the cold SA weather.

I enjoy it cos it means I get to stay indoor and Scrap, Scrap, Scrap.

I tried my hand at Mixed Media this weekend - Mini Version:

I Created a Canvas with a few of my favourite colours, and had
so much fun

I used stamps and Flowers and my new Resin Moulds that I made...
Yes that correct I made them. My Hubby got me the new Mod Moulds and
and the glue sticks. So much fun.....

So I wanted to make something where i could use them .

Hope you like:
