MAGICAL, MYSTICAL WALL HANGING

Sorry about the dodge title (lol)

Hi all, Kat here AKA Kat's craft creations
I am a now a fully fledged, full time member of the design team,
& I will be popping up about 3 times a month, how cool is that!
thanks Hels & Jennie for the opportunity,

the design team are featuring Baubles and Buttons
this month & you can find them HERE at special offer prices

Here's my first creation for the month of July
my mystical wall hanging,

I covered 2 chipboard shapes with white paper,

glued with Claudine Hellmuth multi matte medium

then covered with 2 coats of Antique Linen distress stain

after that dryed, I stamped the

Harlequin background stamp

(after I doctored the stamp to how I wanted It)

with Versamark ink & heat embossed with clear powder,

I then stamped Calligraphic mat 13 with

Pumice stone Distress Ink (now my new favorite)

& edged with Old paper Distress Ink & Blending tool

added the holes & brads with a crop-o-dile &

used idea-ology bead chain as the hangings

I cut 2 frames with sizzix jelly frame out of card & used

pumice stone Distress Ink & a blending tool to colour it,

then glued them to my images, & stuck them to the background.

for the flowers I used a selection of old book pages

& stamped the largest flower off of the Flower Bloom set

& layered them up.

Then added the buttons from Accoutrements fanciful.

for the leaves I used sizzix leaf stem

& cut them out of 2 different pearlessent papers

arranged & glued as shown

to finish off I added 2 butterflies cut with a punch

& I made the body's from wire & beads

then added all the dangley beads & pearls

from the Idea-ology Baubles set

Hope you like it!

Just before I go,

I thought I would show you how I cut my

Harlequin background stamp up

to get lots more affects out of the one stamp

& I still have a block section to be able to

make a solid background (cool ha!)

Thanks for having me,

I'll be back on the 15th with my next creation,

until then have lots of creative day's,
