Thank you Teacher


My daughters year 1 teacher was leaving the school at the end of the summer term and wanted to make a clean and simple card that was special with the school colours. This is what I came up with. I was really, really pleased with the results.



I hope you like my card, I am also entering this card into the CAS challenge Week 61 Silhouette http://casology.blogspot.ca/2013/09/week-61-silhouette.html.

My 1st CAS entry....


I have been admiring the CAS blog for sometime and really love the clean and simple designs. I don’t usually do really clean and simple but thought I’d give it a go and I’m happy with the results.

 
I hope you like my card too. I am entering this card into the CAS challenge Week 61 Silhouette http://casology.blogspot.ca/2013/09/week-61-silhouette.html.

Spaceage Photo Frame

Space Themed Photo Frame
 I made this for my God son’s christening, this little boy is very special to me.
 
 The frame was spray painted with black paint. I hand distressed the mount board background with black ink and then spray painted it with a glitter effect.
I used 2 space stickers but the rest of the images have been hand stamped, coloured in with Promarkers and then painstakingly cut out!
The stamps are from Creative Expressions “Outer Space”
I added googly eyes to the aliens or used glossy accents. I also used glossy accents on the astronaut and the spaceship.
The white stars were clusters of 3 glow in the dark Hama beads and the other stars were magnetic stars that were used as a table decoration at Christmas time J The cogs were also coloured with Promarkers and cut out, and then I used stickles on them to create texture.
 
All of this was assembled onto a 12x12 photo frame with the glass removed.
