Almost too late, but will share them anyway! Fall is my favorite time of the year and it seems to be passing all too quickly. Here are a couple of projects made for Glue Arts this month.
Made with Core dinations textured cardstocks. I love the sanded and distressed look created with this cardstock.
And you can never go wrong with a bit of Ranger Distress Crackle paint in "Rock Candy" form. I love it! There is also some BasicGrey Fabric Posies, Melissa Frances Fall Stickers and chipboard Backdrop piece, and a Maya Road chipboard bird. I did just a little cutting to make the bird look more like a blackbird...just a little :-)
This countdown chalkboard was soooooo fun to make. I used a Creative Imaginations clipboard and painted it with chalkboard paint that you can buy at a craft or home improvement store. Added lots of Authentique patterned papers and elements.
The chipboard banner pieces are Maya Road and so is the tag covered with patterned paper. Chipboard adds such a nice texture to nay project. It adds depth and creates interest.
The acrylic spider web stamps are from Tattered Angels that I stamped directly onto the chalkboard then added glitter embossing.
I added wire and staples along one edge to rustic it up a bit and add more texture. Again, all of the stickers and paper labels are from Authentique. The glitter used is from Pink Paislee--my favorite!
We are coming upon my very favorite crafting season...
Yep! Winter and Christmas!! I actually made this in August, again for Glue Arts using "Paper Smooches" acrylic stamps along with some awesome BasicGrey papers and sticker.
Of course you need to sparkle up those snowmen after stamping and painting in the details... I always use Martha Stewart Fine Clear Glitter for my winter projects. Goes a long way too.
Well, I no longer have wedding on the brain because my son's wedding was Septmeber 24th. It was wonderful and sweet and perfect for the two of them. I will post some photos soon.
Hopefully now more of my days are open for creating and doing a better job of keeping up with Design Team responsibilities. That is my goal! I do have one other tiny, sweet, little thing that may come into play in early March though. My daughter is having a baby...A BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!
This little hat is available at " Beautiful Photo Props" and as soon as I know if she is having a boy or a girl, I'm ordering one. Or maybe I should order now... one pink and one blue so that I'm safe!! Now don't you all go and buy them up before I can get one;-)
Thanks for stopping by!
Linda
