Day 5 - Blog Candy!!!!!

Good morning all.
Well I am in a fabulous mood as my new phone has arrived and I am uber excited to play.
So I have decided to offer some blog candy.  
Please comment below and share a link to my blog on social media and I will, this time next week reveal the winner!!!
We will do this by Random Generator, so it is fair.....
You will receive a goody pack worth £30, including some MDF, Stencils and more!!!!
I will even add a card or two into the Candy.


But also I am sure you would like to see a creation! 
So here you go.... one of my oldies.
But one of my faves too!!

For this I have used the amazing Graphmaster Markers.
I have used reds, greys and skin tones.  Just a touch one one little green for our cute
caterpillar though!
I have a few You Tube videos at the top of the page showing colouring with reds, which will really help with colour combinations.

Have a fabulous day.

Day 3

Good morning all!
Day 3 of my crafty posts.....
Another sample for you, along with ingredients.
Enjoy!


These cameras and media boards are so easy to pop together.
Make sure though, that you do not paint the notches which will make it harder to put together.
MDF swells and you will find you will need to sand the notches if so.

I used Distress Crayons on the media board.  I primed the media board first and then covered it with a glaze to give the crayons more "movability".
I popped the fishnet stencil over the top and used a Grime Boss to wipe away some of the Crayon colour.
That is how easy the background was!

Ingredients:
All Creative Expressions products.
MDF Media Boards
MDF Box Camera
Watch The Birdie Grey Mounted Rubber Stamp Set
Portraits Mounted Grey Rubber Stamp Set
Celery Cosmic Shimmer Acrylic Paint
Cocoa Praline Cosmic Shimmer Acrylic Paint
Mini Stencils - Fishnets
Distress Crayons.
