Sharing Today

Hi there, today l am sharing a couple of items l made using leftovers from kits l have bought.

The first is a wall art piece and has been created on a wooden square

Some close ups of the steps l took to create the background 

I covered the wood with a patterned paper, fussy cut flowers, doily pieces, stamps and then sand paste

I have tried to capture the sand paste below, it gives a great texture

I mixed glitter beads and seed beads together with a gel medium. This dries clear and the beads and glitter add a nice touch

To the chipboard l added gesso, then paint and added gelatos to the leaves and perfect pearls to the birds

The angel is a mix of inks and metallic paint (not finished here)

Close ups of the details

Next is a card l made for my mum's birthday

I have randomly stamped and added bling to a patterned paper

The ribbon was cut into smaller lengths and layered over a chipboard sticker

The wooden butterfly was inked on the edges only

Seed beads and Prills were scattered around the flowers

Small pearls were added

Here they are together

I hope you have enjoyed looking at my projects
