a project to share

finally i have something finished to be shared :) 



my first altered project ;) i will share more soon.. :)
okay, here are the "more" to share soon... 
i managed to take pics when making this "welcome sign hanger".. 


1. making of the base
i cut a styrofoam board into a bucket shape, and also cut 2 pieces of cardboard as the "cover". i attached the cardboard (big shape) to styrofoam and then covered them with yellow cardstock. next is the smaller part, a small part of this will cover the bigger cardboard.


2. paint the letters and other elements.  
these are from jillibean! aren't they just perfect! as i only have 1 color of making memories paint, i used my "pastels" to color them (except for the yellow ones).




3. paint them with glimmer mist. 
still didn't feel right with the colors, i spray them all with glimmer mist of tattered angels. i have some colors of these and would like to buy some more ;)



4. making of the flower.
i used crepe paper, some bought from daiso (SGD 2 for 3 colors). i attached the crepe paper on the corrugated flower as the top and another circle cut from stashes as the base. 

here are some close ups:







































thanks so much for dropping by :)
God bless you!

a layout & my first double page LO

hi all
finally i click the "new post" button, after a long hibernation.. hehe..


i made a LO based on this sketch from pencil lines:
Sketch22


i should say that i love "bracket shape" lately, and i'm glad that finally i can make some fabric flowers ;) and used them on my LO.



1 other new thing i did on this LO, i did masking & used my new blending tool ;) love the looks of the background, can fill the empty space but yet still not too or too noisy..


supplies:
cardstock: amercian craft
patterned paper: MME, 7gypsies, AC
alphas: thickers & basic grey
brads: AC, HP accessories
fabric: bagus2 wrapping store
journaling tag: elle's studio
mask: prima, blending tool: tim holtz, ink: versa magic
crepe: daiso


i have another one to share. first double page LO and also first non 12x12 LO ever.. it is a 8.5x11 LO. i made this for project 12 in "scrapbook & cards today". this is so fun! i kept browse through Davinie's blog to look for inspiration, as i never made anything other than 12x12. 


here is the original sketch:



i modified a bit, as my base is not squares. glad, as i can add some more photos.. though the photo size are so small.. 





supplies: 
patterned paper: MME, scenic route, 7 gypsies, ki memories
card stock: AC
calendar: jilli bean 
ink: versa magic
alphas: remarks
