Masterboard Monday well not today!

  Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.

I am here today to show you another catch up Mixed Media project from Anna Hersom:

Another canvas project, gorgeous resin and Snipart pieces too.

The raised strips at the back are stencilled strips of card which give a nice lift to the design.

Normally I paint over the resin but this time left it cream and finished it by rubbing over it with wax to give an aged effect then applied the flowers, a great way to soften the design. The butterfly was covered glazed with Glossy Accents. 

Hope you like it.

I would love to hear your comments.

Many thanks for stopping by and happy crafting,

Friday Fun Day

  Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.

Angela here again to show you what I've been up to this week.

Rain stops play for a while..... well quite a while some days!

Now why are the bluebells so flattened? 

You'll find out later.

Pretty flower but no idea what it is.

Fruit trees flowering well.

These will be apples hopefully.

Some friends and I went to see another friend singing in the choir which was a lovely evening.

In case you were wondering...... this is why the Bluebells are flat.

Alfie just loves sitting here. No idea why.

A few funnies to make you smile.....

And then I'm off to the hairdressers so see you all later.

Have a great weekend everyone and

 thanks for stopping by.

And if you would like some more smiles you just need to pop over to see what our other friends have been doing this week at Annie's for
"This Week's Smiles" and you can also share your  smiles too.

WOYWW -777- What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday.

 Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.

Hi Workdesk friends. 
We are here for another Wednesday at the Workdesk and here is:
"What's on my Workdesk this Wednesday".

If you don't know what this is all about then please visit the Stamping Ground, our host Julia will explain.

So here is my desk for today!

I'm trying to get started with the ATCs but not much happening yet. Packet of left-over card pieces and several dies so far.

I'm looking happy as I'm in the cabin again this week trying to complete more Mixed Media projects when I should be working on the ATCs actually!

This is from last week.

A couple of pics here though there are more on my Monday post. 

This has been on my desk all last week as I had to stick bits at a time and wait for them to dry before adding more so that's my excuse for not starting the ATCs!

Finally lots of ink and I'm loving the finished design. 

There are more details here:

   So that's me done for today. I know you don't mind a quick post.

 Thanks for stopping by and hope you will pop over and join in the visits around the other desks.

 I'm off now to see what everyone else is up to.

Have a great woyww 

and 
happy crafting,

Masterboard Monday but not today, again!

  Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.

I am here today to show you another project that I've been working on. The kit is an old one by the Creative Craft Academy (now 'Mixed Media Classes'):

I like to do my own designs and construction but sometimes it's just nice to have the kit with everything you need at the ready. I find this quite relaxing.

So just a quick visit to the project starting with the stencilling on an oval canvas and then a layer of Gesso.

Resin elements added. These all come as part of the kit.

And then some SnipArt chip board pieces.

Lots of spraying with red and orange inks and a little Mica powder rubbed over the surface. 

I finished this with the brass watch cover and bees and then added the flowers and postcard.

All done and hope you like it.

I will get these projects finished but there's more to follow yet.

I would love to hear your comments.

Many thanks for stopping by and happy crafting,

Friday Fun Day with Smiles.

  Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.

Angela here again to show you what I've been up to this week.

Flowers in the park are looking lovely.

A great collection.

This is in the park too.

I think someone's been building a den.

Back in the garden Alfie decided to sit amongst the bluebells, no idea why!

But by the look on his face he's enjoying it.

On the way home from the park we were met by Kitty.

And here she is! 

She comes to see us when we're out walking the dogs.

She was supposed to be a house cat but they can't keep her in so she visits the houses in our street.

She is so beautiful.

That's about it for today really but I do have a few funnies for you.

Daisy's favourite thing When you least expecting it!

Have a great weekend everyone and

 thanks for stopping by.

And if you would like some more smiles you just need to pop over to see what our other friends have been doing this week at Annie's for

If you don't know what this is all about then please visit the 
Stamping Ground, our host Julia will explain.

So here is my desk for today!

I've been in the cabin this week working on some MDF projects.

This one is in a box as I've been spraying it.

There are more details if you're interested here:

Cleaning some stones and pebbles, you'll see what happens to those when I get on with the project.

I thought you might like this. 

I don't do much sewing now but these are large fabric clouds with stuffing that I made some time ago. The thing at the top of the clouds is a big red heart with wings.

And just in case anyone thinks they are welcome when I'm working, my sister-in-law bought me this!

So that's me done for today.

 Thanks for stopping by and hope you will pop over and join in the visits around the other desks.

Masterboard Monday but not Today!

 Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.

I am here today to show you an MDF project that I've been working on, another kit by the Creative Craft Academy (now 'Mixed Media Classes'):

A small box.

A beautiful stencil.

Covered in white Gesso and added a few embellishments then started spraying with green ink.

It's always a good idea to protect your work surface when using spray inks and a box like this is ideal.

Nearly finished.

Been adding some foil too and a few extra brass embellishments.

All finished.

And finally.....

covered the inside with paper from the packaging.

So that's your lot for now.

I would love to hear your comments.

Many thanks for stopping by and happy crafting,
