Oxford Lane - Assemblage Clock

I arrived in perth yesterday and we were straight into crafting! Emma let me raid the shop and purchase some new goodies before they went up online. I love doing off the page projects, and couldn't resist this assemblage clock from Tim Holtz. I love the little blurb/definitions that Tim Holtz puts on his products

ASSEMBLAGE CLOCK: A hollowed clock for collecting and displaying timeless trinkets.

I started by painting the  base of it with Kaisercraft Acrylic Paint, added papers from My Minds Eye - Kate & Co - Oxford Lane.  Prima flowers, Pink Paislee Hope Chest collection butterflies. HOC lilly  flowers. Random charms from Emmas personal stash.

Heres a clearer side view of the clock.

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.

This is another entry to the scrapgoodies design team

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.

This project is one of my entries to the Scrapgoodies Design Team

Dusty Attic - Design Team Entry #3

My layouts are something that I have not done before adding texture paste to a layout

I used the chicken wire chipboard and added texture paste to the paper. Added an abundance of flowers from Prima, Manor house, Green Tara and hooked on craft. I also designed and made the title, with a new brand of thickers called DIY Thickers. Very fun to play with.

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 Crafting

Thank you card for a special lady

Here is a cute little card that I have recently done, showcasing the My Minds Eye - The Sweetest Thing - Honey Collection. Im not a huge fan of pink but I gave this one a go. I also coloured in the Greeting farm stamps with Copic's.

My Apologies for the blurry photos, these were taken with my iphone, which I have recently scratched the phone lens, so everything seems to be blurry. 

Easel Cards - Carolyn Style!

I was asked to do a easel style card, for my sister to showcase on her community network. I coloured the greeting farm stamp with Copic Markers and selected papers from Ruby Rocket and My minds eye to embellish this card. I used Tulle, as the embellishing ribbon to make the image stand out just the little bit more.

My Apologies for the blurry photos, these were taken with my iPhone, which I have recently scratched the phone lens, so everything seems to be blurry.

Reflections

I wanted to show of the coolest Nanna in the world. She is my life, literally, I see her everyday! This was a photo of my Nannizzle (fo-shizzle) at Christmas 2011 and the family shot is at Easter 2011. The photos of my family mean so much to me as my uncle, in the centre of the picture lost his battle with cancer last October. 

Re-flec-tion; an image; representation; counterpart. I think we are all a great representation of my nan. Her crazy crazy antics and her little quote that make absolutely no sense when translated into English!
