Flowers and Shabby craft Candies

 
Hey there I have a couple of things to share with you.  I have been making some flowers and I have a few of them to share with you.  I love to make flowers using laces and fabrics and adorning the centers with so many gorgeous finds...pearls...bling....buttons...ribbons...fibre...anything gorgeous looks great :)
 
 
These beautifule vintage inspired flowers I have made with layers of lace and then tucked in little scraps of lace and applique...crochet doilie pearl trim...yum yum yum.  I love making flowers  :)



 
These ones here I call "Ballerina blooms"
I was inspired by a lady on youtube you makes beautiful flowers.  Her youtube channel is alittleshabbychic
 I have made these little cnadiy like centers so fun to make and look gorgeous in the middle of flowers or on a card, layout,so many things :)

Paper Bag Mini Album and Mini Mixed media Canvases

It's time for another Blog hop with Imagine if....
 
I have 2 projects to share with you this week as last week I missed out due to annoying computer problems.
This week up for grabs are some chipboard clock parts and a set of keys...heaps of fun for your next crafty projects.  Don't forget to comment at the end of the post and follow the links to be in to with these awesome products from Imagine if :)
 
 
First up is this cute Mini albums that I have embellished using some chip board pieces aswell as  some felt flowers and lil birdies.
 
 
This paperbag mini measures 15.5cm x 15cm so it's perfect for 6' x 6' papers.  I have used this fun designer paper from Kaisercraft.




 
Tha felt and chipboard pieces I used from Imagine if... really suited the paper I thought and the album came together easily :)  To paint the chipboard pieces I used acrylic paint and gave a coat of Matte  Modge Podge to seal and strengthen them.
 
These next 2 creations are couple of mixed media canvases


 
so much fun to create these little pieces and the laser cut designs from Imagine if... make creating easy aswell as give your work some dimension and interest.
 
For my first mini 4' x 4' canvas I collaged with music note paper.  Had fun playing with acrylics and some lindy's sprays in the background..,.randomly stamped here in there...cut a heart shape out of some Kaisercraft designer paper and added my felt birds and chipboard word.
 

 
with this one I collaged my 4' x 4' stretched canvas with some music paper, ionked it up with some TH Distress inks in my favourite colour Vintage photo.  I played around with some acrylic paints...brought in some copper tones to give a warm autumn feeling and then heat embossed it with a stamped image and some antique gold embossing powder.
 

 
The words I just painted with my TH distress Paint dauber and the leaves I used vintage photo ink again...the copper paint and heat embossed again in the gold but this time I used a script stamp.
I love how this turned out :)
