That's Crafty!

Hello!!

Today I'm sharing some more samples of MDF kits that was recently launched by Thats crafty.

These are such sweet little tealight houses. Theres several different styles available and they could be decorated in so many ways.

**Please Note - These minitare houses are only suitable for battery operated tealights - not to be used with a flamed candle.

These have all been painted with Thats crafty multi surface paints. I then used a mixture of paints, sakura pens and black fineliner pens to add some finishing touches like the little vines, flowers and picket fence. On one of them I even used the dinky brick stencil.

All products used on these samples can be found on the Thats crafty website.

Thanks for visiting

Join me again tomorrow and take a look at some of the card samples I made using some of the new stamps.

Hello!!!!

Have you seen the new products that laucnhed this week? Oh my goodness - I'm super excited about this launch - mainly because of the dreamcatchers. For those that have followed me for a while will know that I make things to sell online and at markets. I have in the past made dreamcatchers but have had difficulties finding MDF blanks that I actually like. Well I went a little giddy with excitement with this collection.

They're not only great if you're making to sell but also to decorate and give as gifts. They'd also make great gifts as just a kit for someone else to decorate. The best bit is that they're all very reasonably priced!

There's so many different ways to decorate them. They can be painted and just use the MDF feathers that come with the kit or you can really go to town and add gems, ribbons, fibres and even real feathers. Honestly you can just have so much fun with them.

For these dreamcatchers I used a selection of Thats Crafty paints including some of the metalic and interference paints. I used some of my favourite wax paste to add a touch of gold (absolutly love that stuff!) I then added some jems, ribbons and different fibres from my collection.

I have recorded a video on how I decorated one of these but I'm just waiting for my son to help me edit it as I'm not great when it comes to technology!

Please see below for a list of Thats crafty products used.

Hi Everyone

I'm back with another witchy make using lavinia stamps.

For this card I decided to use Brushos for a change.

I started by spraying some water on a piece of card that will fit on a 5x7 card blank, then sprinkled some moss green Brushos on. Keep spraying with water and add more Brushos until you've achieved your desired background. Remember less is more with Brushos!! Use a piece of kitchen towel to remove any pools of water. Dry with a heat gun.

Stamp the images in blank using a stamping platform.

Darken the edges with some green distress ink. Use a circle mask to create a moon and some torn paper to create a horizon line.

Stamp the foilage in black and green inks.

Stamp the creatures in black ink.

Use a ball tool to randomly add some yellow dots to create some orbs.

Stamp a few smaller bats by carefully inking just the smallest bat.

Finally add some white dots to the yellow orbs and add some white highlights.

Hello!!!

For Todays project I decided to use an older stamperia masters of magic collection as it worked really well for the recipient of this card whose really into playing cards and magic.

To make this easel card simply score an extra line along the centre of a 6x6 card and fold.

This was so easy to decorate as I litrally just cut up some of the papers and layered them onto some black card then onto the cardblank.

I used a pencil around the edge of the Rabbit to make the image pop!

I used the lovely grungy letters from the Thats Crafty alphabet set to personlise. I absolutly love this set, it's so usefull for adding a personalised touch to a project.

I then used the sentiment from the pablo set and created a wedge for the easle part to rest onto using heavy body glue so it's slightly raised.

Hi Everyone!!!

I really felt like making a Christmas card so for today's project I used the Stamperia gear it up for Christmas collection from That's Crafty.

This isn't my usual style of card as I prefer to use inks and stamps, however this collection is crammed with so many gorgeus papers, toppers and embelishment pieces - making it really easy to put a card or even journal page together.

I distressed the edges of some Kraft card and used gold wax around the edges and did the same with the smaller background panels.

I then simply used some of the stickers on the snowglobe and around it.

To finish I used some of the Rub ons to fill in some of the blank areas and along the left hand side edge to add some interest.

All products used on this projects can be found below.
