Small Canvas
A little sparkly number.
This canvas was inked and smudged using baby wipes. To get the small check effect I used a piece of mesh as a stencil and rubbed the ink pad over the top. I drew the swirls using glue and sprinkled extra fine glitter over the top.
To achieve the gold twist in the middle , I tightly twisted ribbon and stuck each end down to keep it taught. Stamped the head and placed it behind a mount. Then added a few other bits and pieces.
Not really a glitter person,but I really liked the colour.

ATC Tin
Here is an ATC tin I altered. I used alcohol inks to achieve the base colour.Stamped around the bottom with a fern stamp. I wanted to achieve a summer garden theme. The handle is covered by wrapping ribbon around it and I then attached a metal butterfly charm. I used a few more embellishments including chipboard letters to form the ATC on the front.
Circle Book
Variation on the Gothic Arch
JUST WANTED TO TRY SOMETHING A LITTLE DIFFERENT
Inked and stamped with butterflies front and middle .
It also continues on the back.
Ripped some paper and placed it in the middle, again inked over the edges.I cut out some angel images and placed them on and under the paper.
On the front I punched and thread some fibres down the sides.
Chose pinks this time as I tend to use more muted colours and thought the"book" lends itself to those colours best.

Gothic Arches
Well, I have just found Gothic Arches and love doing them.
This is one of my first attemps.
Used various inks and rub ons for the background. Found an oval appature and placed the face behind it. Again used rub ons around the edge . Punched 5 holes and placed screwhead snaps down the side and wound some wool round them just to add a little texture. Added a few other embellishments .......
Butterflies and Fairies 8x10 canvas...
This is my second attempt at an 8x10 canvas.
Inked the background and smudged it with a baby wipe. Stamped blossom in blue around the edge. Stamped dark blue butterflies the over stamped them in light blue. On a piece of card again stamped two butterflies,cut them out and 3d them on to 2 stamped butterfly images. Stuck 4 glass beads in the corner and an image of a fairy and that was that.Quite pleased with my second attempt.
