Mini Clay pot decor

Clay pots are the perfect for mixed media decor. Decorate your showcase with this great bird nest flower vase. You need some metallic fabric paints, Spanish moss, dry leaves, mini paper flowers, some floral ribbon and a few Dusty attic chippies. Once you make this, birds will be flying high :-).

Welcome Winter

Hello my dear scrapy friends...I hope this season finds everyone well and happy....This layout has sat on my desk half finished for days and days and I realized that I could make it look winter and icy, and enter it into Scrap Around The World challenge which is all about our favorite months, I love wearing sweaters and drinking hot coffee, with yummy cookies, the cold days, and of course preparing for Holidays travel trip.

I took some inspiration from Scrap Around the World December challenge, as always, I was totally in love with their mood board it looked very snowy and winter to me, I loved the photo of the jar with a hint of blue, and the photo of the decorate like tree. I used some gorgeous rhinestone flowers and glass sticks to give it a look of jewels, and I loved the hot cup as well..

Hope everyone is having a lovely day!

Altered tomato catch up bottle

Hello everyone

For those of you who love altering bottles like I do, I have some fun and easy techniques to share with you. I’ve created 3 altered bottles using a same technique on each bottle. These are i made for my uncle's housewarming party gift. I’ll (short)explain techniques I used.

Soak the bottles in water, and remove the labels

Once the bottles are clean and dry, instead of painting Gesso, i used masking tape to cover the bottle

Apply white glue on whole bottle and spread the glass beads

Use the gold & silver metallic spray paint on the bottle

Decorate with solo wood flowers(use difft metallic colors), dry leaves, & lace

This was great fun and I am so pleased to discover that the gem cluster glass beads can be altered so easily. I hope you like my altered bottle.

Thank you for joining today!

Birthday Album

Hello my craft friends and welcome to my blog,

So nice of you to drop by. I would like to share with you my new mixed media Album using Papericious Flora Season A4 paper set. These papers are not that much expensive, you will absolutely love them. The colors are so pretty and there are lots of images for fussy cutting as well.
Here is the front cover.

My neighbor gives me an order to make a gift for her friend's Birthday not long ago and, instead of a Birthday Card, I decided to make a card with Mini Album (A5 size) so she would have to keep the photos taken at her college days.

Some of you may recognize the center piece work. I did a post on my first attempt at Mixed media album ( click here ) and this is the other piece from that project. Here i made, Binding type album, with velvet black cloth.

All the papers used for this album were edged with Walnut stain Distress Ink.

The Title is a die cut Chipboard piece which was colored with Lindy's stamp gang embossing powders and then brushed with multi matte medium and randomly sprinkled with glitter.

The large flowers on album are all available from Itsy bitsy. The small flowers and the pearls came from my stash.

Here are the pages.

All the pages ( inside front cover) ,i decorate with butterfly, small tags, metal charms, rubber stickers, pearl gems, acrylic paints, ribbon, small & mini blossoms and the flowers which were all fussy cut from this papers.

I do hope you have enjoyed seeing my Birthday Album. I didn't make it as pockets, flap opens, pick up tags...... as I had intended to but I'm sure you can see the potential. I hope I have inspired you to try this Album for yourself. It is gorgeous to work with this papers
