A Big Welcome to Melissa Craig from

stampit scrapit shareit

You Guessed it!  GREEN & RED

Going CAS with this one. Die cut the Merry

from an old CB alphabet set in red and green tones.

Sentiment is from Hero Arts

Tied silver trim to the e, attached a heart

and bow. Flicked some silver splats

(a little hard to see)

Attached to green card base. Easy peasy!

Hope to see you over in the Gallery

after you checked out the makes from

our Guest Melissa and the Team.

Creative Trading Coins

It's that time of the month for our 

New Anything Goes Mixed Media Challenge at

Creative Artiste Mixed Media

I went with something a little different for me - 

I love the concept of Artist Trading Cards

 but went with coins.

They are a whole lot of fun to make..

Here is how they came together

Die cut circles, added strips of washi tape

 coloured with Lindy's Magical's

with random stamping 

Added splatters with my posca pen

Die cut my insects from coloured Lindy's Magical's

but didn't use the beetle

I chose a variety of products for the backgrounds

and Tim's Small Talk sentiments but in black

The bee has gold thread

Dragonfly has dyed cheesecloth

and butterfly has sisal

Head over and check out what fabulous pieces

have been created for your pleasure and hope you

get to have a bit of mixed media time

to add to our Gallery.
