Hope is lost - She Art

I'm crafting up a storm again over here in WA. Visiting my sister is so much fun! We can craft for hours. Whilst she was updating her website today,  I was looking at you tube videos and blogs about she art. I asked Emma if she had a spare canvas laying about. She did!

I have used the Kaisercraft 75cent Range papers and collectables, Kaisercraft pearl flourish, Prima flowers, Ruby Rocket Trimmings, American crafts thickers. 

This is what I came up with, I call it "Hope is Lost".

Blue Bird - Off the Page - DT ENTRY #2

Another Birdhouse, I layered gorgeous vintage lace over the roof, and added a huge glass crystal to the front. The Kaisercraft base coat papers were a hit with the recipient of this birdhouse. Some items I have used is Krafty Savers ribbon, Kaisercraft bingo cards, prima flowers, Kaisercraft doilies, Kaisercraft blossoms and mini blooms, Kaisercraft resin flowers and some green tara blooms.

Secret Admirer - High School Sweethearts

I love this photo of my best friend and her husband on there wedding day, I had the pleasure of going to school with both of them. Its funny how they found themselves after high school. So technically can you even call them high school sweet hearts?

I used the Secret admirer range in papers, Kaisercraft Washi Tape, Secret Admirer Icon die-cuts and Doily die-cuts, Junkshop Buttons.

Off the Page - Bird House

Loving the new wood style papers from brands such as Kaiser, MME and more at the moment. They provide a great background to simple off the page projects. I wanted to design a bird house that is life like and also provides a warm and ornamental feel to the piece.

Side View:

Used: MME Papers, Bo Bunny Flowers, Green Tara Flowers, Kaisercraft Doilies, Kaisercraft Paint, Kaisercraft Birdhouse, Kaisercraft wooden flourishes, Kaisercraft Resin Flowers, Junk Store Buttons.

Another working progress - Competition Piece

From all the vintage cabochons I have created lately. This has to be one of my favourite ones. Teaming it with Miyuki seed beads and Maria George 3mm pearls, I have so much work to do on this as it will be for the Sydney Royal Easter Show 2014 entry. This is all you will get to see of this piece unfortunately till its completed.

Vintage Cabochons

I decided I had a heap of crafty stuff left over from when my store shutdown that I need to creat something out of my favourite collections that I had kept. These little beauties are going to be quite a few necklaces. I have big plans for a couple of them already! Which one is your favourite?

Dusty Attic - Design Team Entry #4

Dusty Attic - Design Team Entry #2

Here is my second entry, I call it "Little Wishes Boxes" another BTP that sparked my interest. Everything at the moment all my works seem to contain the colour Yellow. Not quite sure what that means but Im kinda of liking my style with it.

I handmade the hat pins, with Swaroski Pearl and Czech glass beads. Here is another close up to show off some more detail.

Dusty Attic Design Team Entry #1

I wanted to create something special to impress. Mum really loves her Greens, creams and country style things and I thought I'd make her something special for Christmas. I created this mini rectangle shadow box. I embellished with Chicken Wire Chipboard, Tim Holtz Philoshopy tags. Prima Flowers and Kasiercraft Embellishment (Doilies, Hunt and Gather Tags, Leaves, Rhinestones and Posies).

Here is an upclose shot of the Pen nib and Flower arrangements

Happy Birthday To Me!

Army brats

I am an army brat, but not your typical one. You see my dad was in the Army, based in Holsworthy for the last ten years or so of his service. He was always posted with the barracks, one year we were told we were moving to Queensland (Townsville) to be exact but I don't think mum was to keen on it, made for an interesting week or so at school telling all my friends I could be leaving. When I saw the Great Southern Land collection from kaisercraft I just knew I had the perfect photo to use!

Tobias in the tiny woods

I don't have any children so sometimes I run out of photos to scrap, and that's when my little fur babies come out to play. This is the Tiny wood collection from Kaisercraft, and the star of my layout is Tobias J. He is my everything
