It's PARTY TIME!

Hello and Welcome to my Saturday post for

Just Us Girls and this week we have something

a little different for our Word Week.

Carol is hosting and chose Movement.

I must admit it stumped me for a while but then I remembered

I had these 'wobble' bits that you add to the back of your image

and they make them shake - yay to movement. 

See what I mean!

I had fun with this project as I knew the

STAMPloratons A-Snarky-Birthday-to-You

was perfect for my brightly coloured cup cakes.

These were heat embossed in white and

coloured with Brusho's and Nuvo Shimmer Powders.

The top wobbly cupcake has 

Nuvo Glitter Drops for the icing.

Other stamps I used are

STAMPlorations Party Time and  Balloons-and-Banners

Hope you will take the plunge and play along with us this week.

Love to see you in our Gallery.

Thanks for dropping in -

New Guest Designer Eva Dobilas from I Love to Stamp

My Mixed Media Jar

What's in store for you today?

It's my first attempt at a Mixed Media Jar for

Creative Artiste Mixed Media Challenge

and Anything Goes!

Here is how my jar started out.

by applying black gesso

then white crackle paint.

I think it cracked a bit too much so

applied some white gel medium then stenciling

on all four sides

 adding art stones from Finnebair

and now to brighten it up with Lindy's Sprays

and some cheesecloth for texture

some embellishments, painting  and waxing

and glass beads, pearls and diamond dust

and finished with  coloured cotton

and here is the lid

There you have it. My first ever MM jar.

Pop over and see what my Team Mates created.

They really are super talented in the Mixed Media Field.

If you love dabbling in paints, texture and any itzy bits you have

 around the house don't be afraid to

try your hand and you may just be like me and

LOVE IT!

Till next time - 

HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY DAY!

Hello and Welcome to May. 

Oh yes we are nearly half way through the year

and isn't it scary how time is just flying by!

You know what that means - it's our

Watercolour Challenge over at Happy Little Stampers

and we are looking for HAPPY  as our

Optional Twist this month.

I made this card a little while ago while playing with

my fascination for Nuvo Shimmer Powders.

I used Cherry Bomb and Green Parade

on water colour paper. I inked randomly

using an acetate sheet to colour in the floral image

I heat embossed my

 STAMPlorations In Bloom Precious Plumerias

twice giving it a shadow effect.

Sentiment is from Pink & Maine.

Attached to white card base and I'm done.
