New things....

We went to the craft show at Kettering the other week, which means new goodies!! Here is a card I made......using a Paper Artsy stamp on a painted background - using Paper Artsy paints which I really like and will have to get some more of! I highlighted a few areas with distress inks.....then just made an inky background on the card....and I think I used metallic glaze too which is actually more silvery than it looks in the photo. Then embellished with a greeting and flower......

I'm working on something else too but I can't post it just in case prying eyes should see hehe!! Actually I've got a few things like that at the moment......

And I've done the next few pages of my elements.....but I just need to finish off Nitrogen and then I will have to post them......

Some more cards....

Here are some cards I have made....


The top one I just used some pastels to draw in the background, and painted the number one and cut out the elephants and stuck on the greeting.
The next one I drew the little crab, not sure what a crab has to do with Christmas but I thought it turned out OK and I kept to the sea theme with the starfish.
The last one I was pretty pleased with the background I creates using some gloss mod podge through some sequin waste and once it had dried going over the top with the distress inks picked raspberry and I think there is some dusty concord in there too. The I stamped on the stars which was the free cover stamp with Craft Stamper this month and then I sort of splodged on some gold perfect pearls. I decorated the snowflake with pink glue and glitter and then stuck a greeting in the middle.
