Demo's Buy and Save, Wellington -Jewellery and Monkton Elm Garden Centre, Launceston - Card Making

Hi All
I will be demonstrating jewellery at Buy and Save in Wellington on Saturday 8th and Card-Making on Sunday 9th at Monkton Elm Garden Centre in Launceston.
Hope to see you all there.... AND....

Due to popular demand, I will be adding Step by Step instructions  for an "easy to make" Stepper Card on here in the very near future -I'm constantly getting requests to show people how to make these cards and have found that every other set of instructions Iv'e read quite complicated, so, perhaps I can make it a bit easier for everyone.
It will be on here in the next few days.... 

Enchanted Christmas at The Range, Exeter -Saturday 24th Sept

Hi all,



Enchanted Christmas Card

 

My next demo is at The Range in Exeter on Saturday. They have the Enchanted Christmas range of products in store as well as all the new "Me To You - Winter Wonderland" and "Christmas Time" range of goodies.



I'll be making lots of different things, including crackers, decorations, cards, ATC's, boxes and more....
I look forward to seeing you there.

MORE FRIENDLY PLASTIC with WOW EMBOSSING POWDERS - UNDER THE SEA

This picture was created with Friendly Plastic and WOW Embossing Powders using my own Hand-made Silk Papers which I have been making for some time now.

I used  real silk fibres to create the backing papers and incorporated other fibres for effect.  Iv'e embossed the papers too with WOW Embossing Powders to add glitter and sparkle. I made a mould from a real fossil, added air drying clay and let this go hard, painted it then I could incorporate this home-made fossil into the work.    


I also embossed a real shell with WOW Pearlised Embossing Powders and incorporated both the fossil and shell into Friendly Plastic, which I also added WOW powders to.


Both embellishments were then added to the picture. I love mixed media as it gives you an excuse to use up everything exciting in your craft kit.

FRIENDLY PLASTIC JEWELLERY

Friendly Plastic Necklace and Earrings.

I love Friendly Plastic - its so adaptable and can be used for all sorts of lovely items -  Iv'e made a pair of earrings and a necklace using Green Metallic Plastic and some Gold Metallic Sheet.

I stamped into the F.Plastic with a DoCrafts V & A stamp which had a very small intricate pattern on it. The colour of the plastic changed and became much more irridescent.
Nice surprise as now I can't wait to  see what my other strips of plastic look like now once I stamp into them.

  

FREE Digi-Stamp on it's way.

Hi all
Your September FREE Digi-Stamp will soon be on my blog. Watch this space......Iv'e designed the stamp so that you can use it on it's own or incorporate it with other stamps to create scenes. I love it and hope you do too. 

My DoCrafts Kit arrived yesterday - Lots of lovely new products to show you and new techniques to come too in my forthcoming demo's.
My next Demo will be at Buy and Save in Wellington on September 10th.  Hope to see you there.
