Fairy Theater

 Just finished a class with Iva Wilcox at Artful Gathering.  We made this wonderful lit fairy theater.

 Iva is a fantastic teacher-enjoyed her class so much.

 There is still time to take her class at Artful Gathering.

Iva will be teaching another class in the second session-A halloween theme theater.

Real Or Borrowed Relatives ATC

 ATC swap for Act For The Creative Mind June Swap-"Real Or Borrowed Relatives Cabinet Card

 I found the images I wanted t use and re-sized them.  Copied and resized a cabinet card.

 Cut the image to fit. cut out the cabinet card and copied it again so I could use for the back of the AT
 Aged and distress them with ink pads-stamp some designs on front and back with gold ink.

 I think they turned out really well.

I hope my swap partner is happy.

Nest

Another from Debbie Hodge-large wooden letters with filigree attached then painted a pale Robin eggs blue.  Added a chain and crystals.

I hang it on my fire place.  Just love it.

A Little Spice

 I used some old spice bottles for this I found in a Good Will.  I aged the tops, added filagree and some beads to the top, and added treasures in the bottles.  Used solder around the bottles, added jump rings and chain.  Attached a charm to the front of the bottle.

Give Me A Hand

 Love these paper macho hands.

 I first base coated them and then use a medal paint on the base-then use Sophisticated Finishes rust solution on them. Attached tissue paper on the hand part.  Added stamped images. Sealed with a sealer. Embellished with different items.

Art For The Creative Mind

 This month pennant  theme Jingle Bells.  This is a fun swap for the whole year.  We do a pennant each month with white winter as the theme but each month has a little added theme.  Love Love Love this swap

License Plates

 I used license plates to make these pieces.  The necklace is made by using a filagree finding attached to the stone and attaching to a chain

 I cut the places up and made holes and attached with jump rings

Here are are a couple of the ear rings I made also.

A Few Bird Houses

 I used Ferro by Viva for the roofs and base.  Painted the house and added some w. tape around the bottom of the houses

More Spoons

A few more spoons.

With A Little Wax

 I took this course with Tweety Jill - wax canvases.  We inked the canvas first- used stamped tissue and an vintage image.paper

The embellishments were attached with the melted wax.  This was a very fun class.  I can't wait for Jill's next one.

What Time Is It?

Just a fun necklace to wear!!

A Photo Album With Joni Russell

 We made this wonderful poto album with Joni Russell.

 sn't the binding fantastic?

 She gave us pages and pages of family photos to use. Lots of time cutting them out and then browning the edges to make them look vintage

 We used stamps to embellish some of the pages

 ribbon for others-plus a little bit of lace

 Some pages we stamped first and other we stamp after

what a fun and great class-thanks Joni
