CS Blessings

Happy Friday everyone!!!  Fall is upon us once again! I really enjoy the hot summer days but I am so ready for fall!! So many things I love about this season, the beautiful colors, the coming festivities, the cooler breeze in the air - makes me smile and warm feeling inside. Now for my project, I wanted to share with you this layout I created for my Clear Scraps Team. 


Clear Scraps Supplies:  The New Expressions-Blessings, Acrylic Leaves  and Fence Embellishments.
I spray some colors on the leaves using glimmer mists,then applied clear embossing powder and use heat gun to dry. This process gives it a natural looking waves and the texture that I like. Note, applying heat on Clear scraps acrylic makes it pliable and easy to work on. On the word,  Blessings - simply spray painted it in white. And with the fence, I used Staz-on ink pad, fast and easy. :) 



Other supplies used: Quick Quotes-New Just Because Paper,  Pink Paislee wood banner, Tattered Angel Glimmer Mists, Staz-on inkpads and Hampton Art Stamp.

Clear Scraps

Good Friday morning everyone!!!  Two more days and fall will be upon us once again!!! Did you all have a good summer? We are blessed this year with a great summer weather, :) and at times I can almost say I miss the rain! I am so ready for fall, if not for - hubby still working on the fence. Oh well it can wait till next year.  He is putting a white picket fence! At first I don't know if I like it but now that it's coming together, it really looks nice. He also painted the house and it really compliments together. This is a project I been asking him to do forever :).  We've  been in this house for almost 13 years and it really needs the paint badly. So glad and thankful that it's almost done! I might have to take a picture and share with you later. 
Anyhow, what I will share with you today  is a project I made for my Clear Scraps Team, a  9x12 canvas wall decor.  I'm up on the Clear Scraps blog today if you want to check it out.



Notes:  Apply color on the  clear word title using Staz -on ink, fun and easy,  set it aside! Now work on the canvas;  First adhere the chipboard tree right on the middle. Setting aside to dry in between; spray paint the entire canvas in white and  glimmer mists then smear several color of inkpads directly onto the tree.


Supplies Used: Clear Sraps Acrylic Expression Word Titles, LOVE, HOPE andFAITH.
Other Supplies used: Quick Quotes; 9x12 Cancas, Whimsical Chipboard tree,Powder Puff Chalking inkpads (Baja Blue - Mango Mai-Tai, Lemonade, Blue Hawaiin, Staz-on (teal blue, pumpkin, olive green) , Tattered Angels-Glimmer Mists and Zip-Dry Glue.
 

Thanks everyone for peeking into my simple life.............until next time!!!

Explore Album ** Hampton Art/7Gypsies**

Hello and good Monday morning everyone!!! I'm so excited to share this album I created for my
 Hampton Art Team! featuring 7Gypsies. Yes two of my favorite products to work on, really! :)
Back in May 2012, I did my very first hike with my family! It was quite an experience for me. I was really proud of myself to finish a 6 mile and 2400 elevation! that was difficult but very rewarding.  It was beautiful at the top........and if I did not do the difficult walk, i would'nt have seen something so beautiful in person. I feel so blessed to have the chance to see and explore  some  of natures beauty on foot - with my family !!! :) and yes, I will do it again!


For background, I first spray painted each page with a regular spray can paint,  then set it aside to dry.   I use smooch spritz sporadically on the page for added color and texture. Then full my pictures out and attach it on one side of the page.  I used transparencies on top of my photos to add a more ragged look. I really had fun creating this album and love how it turned out, hope you’ll enjoy looking at it as well.








Supplies used:
Stamps
7Gypsies  – Abundance
G45 – Tropical Travelogue
