Splodge Away new Sceneit country mask.

This was one of the new masks on Create and Craft yesterday. I saw this one for the first time the day before and had a quick play in Suzicraft but made a mess of the house so I took the mask home and had a go last night. this was the result. So anyone who hasnt used the masks before can see the result you can get without any practice. They are amazing. Thanks Tom. I think I am going to send this one to my cousin in Australia. Now this is a bit risky as she is an artist and does fabulous landscapes so may be very critical as she will look at it with an artist eye!!!!!!

SPLODGE AWAY ON C&C

 

Well another great show from Tom at Splodge Away on Create and Craft with again some fabulous samples from the design team. I have to say that there were lots more beautiful creations that werent shown on TV but I am sure that Tom will be posting a seltion on the Spldgeaway blog as soon as he can. These new masks, like Toms previous ones make amazing cards and I hope if you havent already ordered them you will be ordering them soon. I particularly liked the flower ones as they open up endless possabilities. My next card I am going to make is the country scene. I saw it and had a play very briefly yesterday so havent tried properly yet. Whatch this space!.

Bye for now. Keep Safe and warm

Good morning everyone on this cold snowy morning. We havent had as much as everyone else so I hope you are all keeeping safe and warm. I have been busy with my samples for Tom as Splodge Away is on Create and Craft again on Thursday 24th . Some more fabulous masks.I thought I would share this card with you that I made as a sample for the Ross paper craft show at Nissan. I made this eseing the Poinsettia do it all and creata masks. This just shows how versatile the masks are as it can be used all year round by just changing the colours and technique. I coloured with spun sugar and tattered rose. the flowers were the same but I stamped a script onto the leaves first. I think this gives a great effect. It neednt be script though as I have found that any small stamp does as it kind of gives depth to the flower but the design is not obvious when coloured. Hope you like it.
Thanks for stopping by.

Good Morning everyone. I paid my first visit of the year yesterday to Suzicraft and it was lovely to see everyone and catch up on there holiday stories. It was lovely to see Jimbo there as I only found out that she has had a heart attack but on the mend we hope. Tom of course told us all about his visit to C&C. He was on top form as usual taking the mick out of everyone particularly little Joan. While I was there I couldnt resist getting the fairy stenscape and frame. When I came home I had a play and this is the result. First time as well. I used the brighter shades of Distress inks for the frame and Seedles Grapes and Dusty Concord for the mask.
If you werent lucky enough to get one of these ring Suzicraft and get one ordered. tom is going to be working overtime to keep everyone supplied with there goodies.

ANOTHER ROCKER!

Another rocker card. Well I couldnt not do one when I had so many wonderful masks to play with. I thought this lent itself to a rocker as I think the image is a young one and I always think of little people when I make a rocker although a lot of my rockers were with adult images. ( Work that one out if you can)

The basics of the rocker card were the same but I rang the large circle through the Grand Calibur useing the star mask then keeping the mask in olace coloured the stars with pan pastels. I embossed the card and coloured it again but this time cut out some of the stars to embellish the stamped image which was a freebie from a stamping magazine.x

Success at last I have now managed to post an image. Dont know what is happening with the blog folks but never mind at least I have a picture on.

Well bloggers just watched Toms first show on Create and Craft today with his new masks and Stenscapes. ANOTHER SELL OUT. At this rate the design team will become redundant as they didnt have time to show our samples!! lolx. Because of this I thought I would put them on my blog straight away for you to see but it seems my blog has decided to change the way you put pictures on and I cant get them on. Doh! Never mind please visit me later and hopefully I will have worked it out.

Hi everyone well I came on really to tell everyone who was looking forward to Tom from Splodgeaway being on Create and Craft on 17th December to get your tissues out as its been cancelled until the 4th January. Sob sob. good news for DT members though as this gives us a bit more time to get some samples done. Without giving too much away you get a LOT for your money on the next show so that is a LOT for DT members to do samples with.x  Had a nice day today at Suzicraft even though it was freezing cold and ice and fog on the way its always worth it to see all the lovely people. It was the Thursday morning coffee clubs xmas do today and they had a fun time with party hats, buffet and pass the parcel but still managed to craft. My visit was just fleeting for me ( A couple of hours. haha)
Couldnt blog without sharing a card with you. This was another one I made useing Sheena Douglass A little bit sketchy festive stamps and coloured with pro markers. Well of to do some crafting.
Thank you for takeing the time to pop to my blog

Good afternoon bloggers. Just thought I would get a quick blog in, inbetween cooking sunday lunch and share with you a card that I have made in batch that I will be sending to friends this year. Some may already have them as Cliff sends them as I make them. A great little production line. Very simple to make. I have used Sheena Douglas's a little bit sketchy feastive stamps for the Robin and Bow and a little worker stamp in holly from a Hobby Art Set.

I stamped the Robin ( and what great stamps they are very clean images, a pleasure to work with) and the bow then coloured with pro markers. (I cut pieces of card 4x4 for the robin) Then cut out the bows and edeged the white with red around the robins. before glueing onto my 6x6 cards I stamped the holly stamp around the edge of the card blank. Job done.
