The Crafters Coven!!


Here we all are playing with Friendly Plastic on one of our craft days.!!  Some of the results have been used to decorate the page from a journal I started on Stampers uk. Unfortunately I hit crafters block after week 11 and have yet to take up the challenge again.!! However this page illustrates the coven quite nicely so I decided to give the girls an airing!! They are going to be soooooo pleased. rofl!

I have also nearly finished my Book of Time and decided on a page of  the middle ages. These lovely stamps from Chocolate Baroque were just waiting for their chance at the limelite.



The Knight and his lady were from a plate entitled Medieval Heraldry and the texts were a combination of various plates. For the seal I melted some ultra thick embossing powder in the melt pot then poured onto a silicon mat and pushed a button into it. I attached it to the page with the addition of some ribbon and added some bling to the crowns which were from the same set of stamps.

I have Ju's book to decorate this time and she has an open theme. So yippee - any thing goes!




For this two page spread I went for some bling and edged both pages with some metal flakes. The central image is on a brayered background using the spice big and juicy ink pad. I couldnt resist the lovely steps by lavinia stamp along with the little mushrooms. The tree is a skeleton tree by chocolate baroque and I used some leaves that I had "chopped off" another stamp which I didnt use any more. I like to find another use for unloved stamps and from time to time will chop them up to make them into something I will use.



Page 2 of the spread features a huge lovely butterfly which has been coloured and glittered using promarkers and distress stickles.  The lovely sayings are more from my book of words and definitions by paper pizzaz.  I then added a triple embossed wooden flower with a small metal swirl behind and a brad for the centre. I hope she like it.!
