Here's one of my first creations using this new set, it's a coaster that I've turned into a wall hanging. I've made it for a colleague at work, who has a joke with her flat mate about YOLO, so I had to use it to make this little gift for her :-)

Yolo Hanging

Here are the images form the set.

Come back tomorrow when I have a card to show you using the same set.

Collage in Blue

It's that time again :-) a new challenge over at Craft Room Challenge, we had heaps of entries for Charms and Pins, and Nikki will certainly have her work cut out to chose her Top 3.

Our next challenge is Collage and is sponsored by Indigo Blu, they have such cool stamps. I've used there Grand Tour I  for my collage tag.

I firstly covered the tag with some sponged ink, and some ticket tissue tape. I then sprayed with Dylusions Sprays- London Blue and Tempting Turquoise. I then stamped in a darker blue some of the images from the Grand Tour I set. I then added some pretty Edwardian Girls from a Gecko Galz collage sheet. I then added the sentiment and the binoculars lady again from the Grand Tour set, distressed the edges. Finally I covered the whole thing with beeswax. I think beeswax might be my favourite thing at the moment :-)

As always,  I can't wait to see what you all come up with.

More Beach Babes

I've created this green and gold tag with Beach Babes from the new release Gecko Galz Collage sheet. I love how they're very 1950's and slightly risque :-)
I've created this background with Dylusions Inks, beeswax and embossing powder. I also used a shell stamp image from the retired Stampin Up! Set Seaside.
I'm entering this over at the Gecko Galz Yahoo Group Colour Challenge- Green and Gold.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Gecko Galz Aloha Twinchies

Here are my creations for Gecko Galz this month. Leanne has created some gorgeous collage sheets this month. For this trio of twinchies, I used the Summer Jewels Sheet.

Starting with my usual chipboard and tissue tape base, I've then coloured, stamped and embossed. Then I added the images and some sparkle from seashells and glitter.

I inked all the edges and added a beeswax layer, which has given them a lovely 50's retro feel.

Dance With The Moon

I had a spare 40 minutes before picking the kids up from the bus, and I really wanted to play along at Simon says Stamp and Show this week as it's All Girly :-)

I've cut an ATC out of chipboard, covered in tissue tape then covered in Picket Fence, then added various inks, sprays and stamped the frame and silhouette. I then added the cute girl chatting to the moon image.  To finish I added embossing powder, micro beads, pearls and a layer of Beeswax.

I love the texture that the mixing of the beeswax and embossing powder produces.

I'm also entering this little inky ATC over at Fashionable stamping challenges where they what us getting inky.

Just Like Honey

I've made this tag with the new release Getting Grizzly Full Plate from Rogue Redhead Designs (RDD).

First of all I stamped with the background honeycomb stamp, then sponged. I then stamped the bears and the sentiment. I added the leaves from the  Floriculture RRD set.

I then covered the whole tag with melted beeswax, it smells divine, just like honey.....

Here's the images from the Full Plate, get yours from RRD, while it's on special.

It's such a cute versatile set.

Have a Great Week.
