Playing along.....

Hello my friends......
LOVE is in the AIR!!
....and Valentine's Day is right around the corner. 


I had already created some "paper" that
I thought I was going to use for another challenge
but it fit this challenge perfectly!!
I created my "paper" by adhering various papers, fabrics and textures
to a piece of printed paper.


I mixed a bit of Mudd Puddles ~ Sand with a bit of
The Crafter's Workshop ~ White Pearl Modeling Paste.
I applied it to my "paper" through
an UmWowStudio stencil ~ Hexagon Confetti Stencil.


When dry, I applied Tattered Angels ~ Glimmer Glam ~ Bon Bon 
with a pipette, drying between layers, 
until I had achieved my desired look.


I then, cut the paper into mini ATC's.
I found it easier to cut from the backside of my"paper".
I just love how every ATC is so different from another. 


With the leftover "paper" I cut out various sized hearts.


Then, using a pipette filled with
Tattered Angels ~ Glimmer Mist ~ Red Chillies
I dropped the color onto the hearts.


Don't they look AMAZING!!


Here are my finished Valentine Cards.
I used Impression Obsession/Yvonne Blair Designs
Everyday Quotes 2
They were just PERFECT for my cards.







 Hope you enjoyed my
Love filled cards!!

My Metallic Princess

Hi Everybody....
We've made it into the new year....2018
A new year calls for some new product.
....and I got my hands on the
NEW RELEASE
from The Crafter's Workshop.


And off I went, trying out the new product.
I ran it through stencils,
I lathered it on with a palette knife.
I applied it to fabric and paper. 
The only thing I found is it wasn't
fond of having the drying
 process accelerated by using a heat tool
but still faired well!


I applied a bit of Canvas Corp Tissue Stock
to a piece of CC Cardstock ~ Kraft.
Then I began the layering.
And layer I did....7 of them in fact
using TCW stencils, new and old.


I LOVED how this paper felt when I was finished
....almost like leather. Textured leather that is!

Now, what to make with my new paper??!??!
I went digging through my box of naked bases
and found a Chunky ATC.

I painted my wooden ATC with TCW paint.
Can I tell you it was hard to cut this paper
....but I did!


While my block was drying, I went in search of wing material.
I decided on a piece of CC Flute ~ Kraft
and I applied layers of Metallic Modeling paste.
Now, I have no idea what the tool is I used but
I ran it down the grooves of the paper
and let the modeling paste dry.


I then cut up the strip of paper and adhered it to my block.
I pulled out a bag of mixed wood parts
and picked out a few and painted them
with the modeling paste.
(it had great coverage)


I used Sizzix/Tim Holtz Distressed Doily
to cut the Metallic Princess' wings.


I painted a few vintage buttons with
the Modeling Paste and it worked WONDERFULLY,
one coat did the job.


I even pleated the paper and the Modeling Paste didn't crack!


She wouldn't be a princess without a crown.
I pulled out my UmWowStudio ~ Crown Mash,
picked a crown and painted it with more Modeling Paste.


This product gets a two thumbs up from me!

I hope you have enjoyed my creative journey. 
I still have more paper so be watching
to see what else I make.
