Create and Craft Samples from the last Imagination Crafts Show part two.....

Good morning all,
 
Two days in a row hurrah!!
 
 
So today I am showing you the other samples that I made and demonstrated on the last Imagination Crafts Create and Craft Show.
 
So this time, here are some photos of the Starburst Garden Stamp  and the other background stencils  samples from the last show.....
 
Again I really wanted to keep the samples CAS to show how effective the products can be.....
 
I used the Stencil paints again that we had on the show as the colouring medium and as I said yesterday, I love it and will be stocking it soon.....
 
This colour I used on this sample was Lemon and Meadow Green, I love the way the colours blend and you get such bright colours from the pots ( this was a demo on the last program, if you missed it)......

 
For this next sample I used Bluebell and Lemon, for the background I used the Trellis with the Bluebell Stencil Paint and Diamond White Sparkle Medium. I also added some Lemon Sparkle Medium ( new colour ) to the centre of the flowers...... 
 

 I really enjoy working with all kinds of altered art and different wood and canvas etc. and found this balsa wood box in my stash so decided to decorate it using the Starburst Garden Stamp and Bluebell and Chalk Stencil Paints....
 
 
I stamped the flowers on to velum and embossed them with white embossing powder and then added Diamond White Sparkle Medium on top.......
 
The inside.....
 
 
A little closer look......
 
 
Well that has come to the end of my samples from the last show but I am working on lots more samples at the moment for all sorts of things, so I will be back soon to share them with you......
 
Until then big hugs.....

Create and Craft Samples from the last Imagination Crafts Show part one.....

 
Good morning all,
 
Apologies for being such a bad blogger but as I explained this blog is all about what I love to create in my spare time!!!
 
Unfortunately that has been non existent over the last month or so!!!
 
So I thought that I would show you some of the samples that I made and demonstrated on the last Imagination Crafts Create and Craft Show. I have been so busy trying to sort out new classes for 2015, creating samples and demos for C&C for Imagination Crafts, doing the work for, demonstrating and attending the NEC Trade Show and then there's the designing of products for Imagination Crafts which is time consuming but very exciting. There are nine new stamps being launched that I have designed and drawn by hand and there are also a range of stencils in the making and as soon as I can I will let you know when and where they will be available.......
 
So back to the samples, here are some photos of the Butterfly Garden Stamp Set and Honeycomb Background Stencil samples from the last show.....
 
I really wanted to keep the samples CAS to show how effective the products can be.....
 
I used the Stencil paints that we had on the show as the colouring medium and I have to say that I love it and will be stocking it soon.....
 
This colour is Mallow and I have stippled a little Diamond Sparkle Medium on the butterfly ( this was a demo on the last program, if you missed it)......

 
This time I used Mallow with Bluebell and it creates the most amazing lilac colour.
Twin butterflies on this one.....
 
 
Now this one is Mallow again but mixed with Chocolate it creates the most beautiful peachy colour, they really are amazing paints to work with.......
 
 
And finally I wanted to show how you can use the stencil paints on wood and canvas too with no prep, just straight on the surface.....
 
I love these mini canvases, they are so cute. This was Mallow again mixed with Bluebell.....
 
 
I hope you like what you see and I will be back tomorrow with some more samples from the show but this time using the Starburst Garden Stamp and Stencil Paints......
 
Until then big hugs.....
