Thank you followers

I have over 400 followers

and when one reaches a 100 milestone

I can give away one of Paulette's

wonderful Create with TLC  

digital creations.

 

I love subway art, so here

is a spring one for you:

just save it to your computer with

the right mouse click!

Enjoy

and THANK YOU

for being a follower of my

Chraftchaos Blog.

 

Of course I made already a card with

it to give you some inspiration,

but you can also print it any size you like

and just frame it.

I do hope this happy artwork will

 make spring coming sooner,

for in the Netherlands it is still

freezing cold.

Next to the suway art I stamped

Michael Strong's  small cloisonné tulip.

I stamped and embossed it twice

amd tree times only the flower.

Everything is cut out and the flower

added with a little piece of foam tape.

On top of the flower there is also a

little gemstoned glued.

Thank you very much Paulette for the

lovely and happy subway artwork.

 

Have a creative day!

Have a creative day!

Club Scrap PSL wk 6: Art Media

 

This week at Club Scraps

Pro Scrapbook League it is all about

ART MEDIA

and of course I have something to share with you.

 

The media I use is

distress stains.

Below you see the colors I have used

to make this card.

Papers: CS  Peacock Oct 2012

Stamp: CS Birds of a Feather Sept 2009

mustard seed

wild honey

sticked raspberry

and mowed lawn

 

Take the lid of the bottle and add the

ink directly to the stamp you chose to use.

I gave each bird a different color

and the squares I did with green.

When the ink is all on the stamp, you press the

stamp on the paper and this is the result.

A kind of aquarel look.

Now you can use the stamped panel to make

your card.

I have stamped several images, so there will be

more cards soon.

The sentiment I used is by Create with TLC.

 

This month kit by Club Scrap is called

BOOKSELVES

and just like last month

we have prepared a wonderful

and inspirational Blog hop for you

with 15 people making art for YOU!

So mark the date in your

calender and come

by to hop.

 

 

Have a creative day!

 

Sunday Scrap page: Colors

Theme of this week is: COLORS

at the Weekly Chronicles of Club Scrap

and there are many ways to make a page about it.

I choose to do the colors of my DD new house,

The house is a stamp by

Michael Strong.

I stamped it with versamark ink and

embossed it with orent express embossing powder.

It is colored with distress ink and

distress markers.

To read the text, you can click on the photo

and get a larger version.

The new house is their dream

and they just can't wait to move in.

 

 

Have a creative day!



Club Scrap PSL wk5: Embellishments

 This week at Club Scraps

Pro Scrapbook League it is all about

EMBELLISHMENTS

and of course I have something to share with you..

 

How about using these twisties

from the Friendship kit

(April 2004)

that I still had lying around

and never used.

 

 

Take 4 twisties

and also you need

2 circle punches (one larger then the other)

prick pen

wav thread

 

 

Fold the twistie from both sides towards the middle.

Do this with all 4 twisties.

Now take a piece of wax thread,

about 16 inch.

Now we are going to arrange the twisties on top

of each other like on the drawing.

You have to hold it in your hand.

Take the wax tread and use it to fasten all the twisties

together. Go from one side of the flower towards the

other side widing twice and go to the next petal.

When all is done you have two pieces of thread.

Now you punch two circles.

Put the circles on top of each other

and prick two holes. It will look like a button.

 Thread the wax thread trough the holes

and make a bow on top of the flower.

Now you have a ready flower to

embellish on your card.

Glue dots are great to fasten the flower

to the card.

 

 

 

Have a creative day!

 

 

 

Calling Spring

'

A lovely new digital set at Create with TLC

and this is my sample for you to be inspired

to use this set.

You find it and more samples

HERE.

With some of the images

I created this gatefold card.

You need some scalloped and oval dies;

The card measures  a piece of

11 x 4 1/4 strip of cardstock

that is scored at 2 3/4 at either

side and folded towards the middle.

 

The ring of oval scalloped is

fastened only half way

on the top and the middle part

is only glued on the bottom part.

 This way you get a kind

of latch when you open the card

 and can peep into the inside

of the card.

Where you find another

sentiment and some more of the

scrap paper, that is also used on the outside.

 

Have a creative day!
