Twinchies

Little squares of creativity 2" X 2" hence the name "Twinchies"

This was entered for the "Show us your Twinchies Challenge 12 "Let it Snow"

Frosty & Bright plaque

Good Morning,
It seems rather appropriate to be posting this little plaque now the weather has turned so chilly, Brrrrrr...
The plaque itself is MDF and approx 15x8cm
I decorate many of these which I sell at market events.
The design is created on card and then stuck onto the plaque.
I used Pan Pastels to colour the background, white, turquoise,blue tint and phthalo blue, creating the hills and winter sun/moon effect.
Then I stamped the horse, foal and foliage from stamps in my stash, the naked tree is from Clarity stamps.
The frost is simply glossy accents and glamour dust
Finished off by adding sparkly fibres threaded through to hang and that's it!
Hope you like it and thank you for visiting.

A Host of Golden Daffodils

I was asked about designing a clock with daffodils and here it is...

I used some stamps that have been in my stash for many years. They are silhouette stamps are are usually coloured before stamping with water based pens like Marvy La Plume. I used some Chalk Eye ink pads for the colouring on this occasion as they are a good shape to enable the detail on the stamps to be coloured. The background daffodils were 2nd/3rd generation ink to get a muted effect. I decoupaged some of the daffodil heads for dimension and blended ink at the base of the stems.

Thanks for looking
More to follow soon
