Well yes my blog does still exist......

I've not posted anything in ages but that doesn't mean I haven't been doing anything of course.....here are some of the cards I've made, can't remember if I've posted any of these before. I'm currently distracted by 3D printing things....but that of course will be for another post! 
 This one is spray inks, stamps, stencils, embellishments, prima art alchemy paints, glitter, and a few other things besides! (Paper Artsy and Lavinia stamps)
 This one is mostly distress crayons, a few die cut cogs a little drawing a craftwork cards greeting
 This is distress ink through a stencil and some white pen drawn on
 This one is a indigo blu periodic table stamp, and distress crayons and gelatos and a paint pen on the top
 This one is Seth Apter dies, some inks and gelatos etc. and some gilding flakes too
 This one is pearlescent medium through a stencil and then lavinia stamps and purple ink
 This one is a stamp coloured in....I've totally forgotten which stamp set this is from...sorry stamp maker! Coloured with wink of stella i think
 This is ink and a background bark stamp and then another stencil with pearlescent medium
 This one is a create a scene die (X cut i think) with a lovely fox
 This one is watercolour crayons and paper artsy stamps
 This one I think is dylusions paint and then stamps over the top and maybe some gelatos

The Magic of Christmas

Merry Christmas from blogland! Here is a configurations book I made for my mom and dad; it was really fun to make and to decide what to put in each section and basically it was any excuse to cover the entire thing in as much glitter and sparkle as possible!

The cover is painted mostly gold and a bit red inside with some added gilding flakes and chipboard letters painted and then some inka gold in red and them some glitter paint and inside some gilding wax and then I used red sparkle medium through a stencil to make the stars. The snowflake is 3d printed.




Inside the snowman is 3d printed and then painted; then the little tree and wreath I inked and then added some white paint to the tree for snow. Then I used some snowtex type stuff. Wooden letters to spell out noel with some berries. Mini bells, string beads, a 3d printed angel; the little green house is cut out on the cricut, mini pretend lights, a wooden 25th December decorated with gilding wax, glitter in tiny bottles; another little bell; a gingerbread man which is patterned paper and then loads of added glitter and sparkles. And it all couldn't have been done without loads of heavy body gel medium to stick everything down.

Next one is dylusions paints, molotow pens and a happy birthday stamp and the bottom one is dylusions paints and hand drawn lettering with a signo uniball pen.

All hail the Dylusions paints

Well what can I say....I've been so excited to get my hands on the new Dylusions paints and I certainly wasn't disappointed. They are brilliant. Using the mini blending foam as an applicator is genius and they are so quick drying and the finish is so smooth, no soaking through to the next page either. It's just so easy to create page after page.
