Altered frame





Okay so what you see here is an old silver frame that holds a 5x7 picture. I am working an a Halloween party for Jens digi stamps and thought this would be a great way to show off one of the halloween stamps tha she has designed. In the first picture you can see i have started applying acrylic paint, I used Tim Holtz twilight purple ( halloween color) to start the covering up of the silver. Next I used a heat tool to blow air over the paint to help it dry I than applyed a second coat over the edging of the frame being carefull not to get it on the glass. After it dryed for a couple hours I took some crackel pain ( again Tim Holtz Rock candy ) and appyled it all over the purple and let it dry, when it drys it gives a cracked aged feel to the frame I than placed the digital image from Jens Diti stamps in the corner with glossy accents, as it drys expediantly and there you have it a cute little halloween frame ready to put your little ghosts, or other creatures in to it. God bless you all and have a lovely eveing

Chalk,back to school.

This little dragon was so much fun to paint using twinkel water colors they seem to have a very viberant color and shimmering effect. I made this for the Letter C swap, the c is the chalk board that the little dragon is sitting on. I used cherry cobler paper and basic black from stampin up. Im not sure where the little dragon came from he was sitting there lonely on my computer just begging to be colored. Hope you all have a blessed day.

Back to the 80's


I made this card for Jens Digi contest this morning that she is hosting on face book. She is colored with copic markers, and on some stampin up basic black. I used the Martha stewart bubble edge punch for the ribbion under the corner triangle. The flower paper was actually some older scraps that I had laying around. Off to make more memories .
God bless.
