Welcome to the
showing of the May Creative License kit.
I hope you came over here from
and enjoyed seeing what she had
come upwith to inspire you.
I absolutely love this masculine kit
(but I love every kit when it comes :-)
So what did I come up with this time:
a scrap page and a picture frame.
Here is my scrappage with my adorable grandchildren,who
are riding their toy car for the first time. I used one of the
ALSB pages. You find those instruction on the
Here some details:
the wonderful key that came with the embellishments
of this kit.I love the word dream on it. Yes,
those boys still have to dream about their own car.
And then a look at the rubber stamps:
The Jumbo stamp sheet comes with this wonderful
license plate stamp and a complete alphabet, so you
can make up your own words on the plate.
My next project is this picture frame. I made this wonderful
picture of my DH and the boys, you might have seen it on
facebook, and it just needed a special frame.
I had this frame for a long time and it had the perfect size for this
picture,but not the right border, so it was time to
do a make over.
I started with cutting a piece of grey paper in the right size
6 x 6 inch on the outside and 3,5 x 3,5 inch on the inside.
Then part of the frame was embossed with
the gears embossing folder
and the other part with the rivit metalembossing folder.
Then I painted it randomly with black acrylic paint.
Next a layer of broken china acrylic paint
and finally a layer of golden paint.
Now it is time to let it all dry (I used a heat gun).
To complete it all I brushed the raised part with a
gold metallic ink pad.
The 3 keys are embossed with silver to give
it its metal look and the key to my heart is also a stamp
that you fnd on the Art Nouveau rubber stamps.
The cards are printed from the digital Creative License
images.Cut out twise to give it more body and to
have a layer of glossy accent on top.
The amazing image is a cut out that came with
the scrap kit.
