First Fat Pages

First attempt at Fat Page





Here is my first attempt at a Fat Page swap. Plain white card coloured with distress inks, tea stain and scattered straw. Stamped with unknown floral stamp and coloured with Ecoline water colours. The sleeping rabbit is an Anitas stamp on triple embossed mountboard using gold and copper embossing powders








The background for this one side is the same colours. Stamped again with an Anita's stamp and coloured with Ecoline water colours. Same triple embossed mountboard with another Anita's stamp of rabbits.



Multi ATC


Warholish ATC

I was messing about with my new alcohol inks and photo paper and decided to make an ATC in the style of Andy Warhol when he did his Monroe picture. Mine is similar ish!

I only have 3 colours at the moment Cranberry, Eggplant and Lettuce, hopefully get some more soon.

The stamped image is one I have made using my Imagepac.

Mini Book

This is a mini book for a swap on a great forum - Crafting Corner. We had to choose the contents to depict one of our favourite crafting activities. For the most part I have done stamping. The whole book has been done on mountboard and bound together using a fantastic piece of equipment a Bind It All.

The letters have been cut on my Big Shot using the lollipop alphabet out of mountboard. This has been coloured and stamped using an Anita's flower stamp then triple embossed with clear embossing powder.

These two pages have again been coloured using Alcohol inks. The foxglove stamp is from Tanda. The swirl is from Wendie Rhodes and the flowers from Joanna Sheen. I have used Jazz Beadazzles in the centre of the flowers and glossy accents to hi-lite the swirl and birds.
















These are two stamps I made with my Imagepac - I only had it at Christmas but I think they turned out quite well for first attempts. I stamped them onto distressed paper and singed the edges.














Stamps on the left are from Joanna Sheen web site. The centre of the frame has been hi-lighted with glossy accents and the corners have been stamped again, cut out and mounted on foam pads to give depth. The page on the right has been done the same way.














This is the back cover. Stamped with a background stamp from Tanda Stamps, the sentiment is from Joanna Sheen and the flowers have been cut from vellum using a Cuttlebug embossing stencil and coloured.

An Old Tobacco Tin


This is an old tobacco tin from when my dad used to smoke his pipe. I cleaned it all up first and then used Alcohol Inks (Tim Holtz) to colour the tin itself. Not very clear but they are red and aubergine. The metal flowers and brads I have had for a long time and also coloured them with alcohol inks and a bit of glitter and a piece of raffia to finish it off.
