More samples from Crafty Individuals Animals galore show

 

Hi there! Thought I would share with you my other samples from the most recent Crafty Individuals Hochanda show now that the stamps have been added to the website.  First up is the wonderful giraffe (CI-564), stamped and layerd onto a background created with dylusions sprays, crazing collage medium and Bee Crafty stencils. The giraffes were embossed - one in gold and one in copper and coloured with arteza brush pens onto watercolour card. The sentiment was stamped using the Bee Crafty Typewriter Alpha set.

For the Flamingo card I used the trees from CI-561 and sentiment from CI-565 along with Mismesh, Fragmentation and  CI-116 along with the Flamingo (CI-563)

I think the giraffe is possibly my favourite. I stamped him in black versafine clair, masked him and then stencilled with distress inks and a that's crafty stencil. I stamped the French Script in grey ink down the side and added the Happy Birthday from CI-464 over the top. This was a quick card.

Next is the stag, watercoloured and placed over a backgorund of distress oxide inks in Antique linen and Speckled egg. The background stamp is CI-430 and the sentiment is on CI-438

Finally here is my altered tuna tin! I cut a circle of one of Malcolm's photo background papers to cover the bottom and added vintage style journaling paper to the mdf base and the outside of the tin. I stamped the toucan and cut it out, extending the branch until it was longer than the width of the tin. I attached the ends of the branch with strong glue to the inside of the tin then added a few leaves from a discontinued set

Do check out all the new product on the website that you can find here.

Animals Galore!

 Hi There! I thought it was high time I shared a few more of my DT makes for Crafty Individuals that were on Hochanda last week on the Animals galore programme. I don't know if you managed to catch them or not, but they were brilliant shows with multiple sell outs! The new stamps by Ellie Mulligan will be on the website very soon, so look out for a newsletter from Jean and Malcolm or an announement on their facebook page.  

For my first card I stamped the zebra in black, masked it and stencilled the background with a Bee Crafty stencil and citrus twist distress ink. I moved the stencil then went over again more lightly with sqeezed lemonade, adding some sequins.

My second card was stamped in versafine clair ink onto a background created with spectrum noir glitter pens as a colour wash.

Here is another zebra card. This time I stamped the silhouette animals in brown ink onto a craft card and also stamped the zebra at the corner but in black ink. I then stamped and embossed the zebra onto white card using black ink and cut it out (this means no fussy cutting of the mane is required as it is on the card already and can be cut from the one being placed over the top. 

Next up are Ellie and Nellie, those lovely elephants. I found some backgrounds I made with adirondack colour sprays from quite a long time ago and this one reminded me of African sunsets. I stamped the elephants in Black ink and added a few highlights using a white gel pen.

Finally, here is a notebook decorated with some mulberry paper and a piece of calico stamped with the elephants and coloured with inktense pencils. I will be back next week share my remaining samples. In the meantime, here is a link to the Crafty Individuals website so you can check out what has been added to the website recently in the 'New' section
