Phineas Pinchbeck

I loved the Phineas Pinchbeck stamp from the moment I saw it. For this
 project I used the following Artistic stamper stamps, Numerical plate, 
glory and Ephemera 1. Tim Holtz cargo stencil  & 
 photo and scattered straw.  


Firstly I painted grey board with fresco finish paints in stone, nougat,
and mushroom, through a honeycone stencil I put squid ink
paint that I then knocked back with nougat. 


I stamped the two sets of numbers off the Numerical 
plate in chocolate pudding.


The two stamps of the postal plate were stamped in claret
 and baltic blue. The ruler of the Ephemera plate was 
stamped in archival ink. 


Grunge paste was put through the cargo stencil numerical 
once dry this was coloured with 
geletoes and treasure gold. 


Gauze was coloured with claret fresco finish paint then darkened 
with black soot distress ink.


Card coloured with distress inks was stamped with the Phineas
 stamp and the crown from crowning glory which I 
then highlighted with liquid pearls.


The clock face x 2 from Phineas stamp was covered in crackle 
accents. this was layered up with the clock faces of the 
time and keys plate. I used a cog die that I had in
my stash.


The sign at the bottom was hand written with white gel pen on 
black card and then backed onto kraft card.


I then backed it onto burlap and black card and finished off with 
 four gold brads on all corners. Thank you for stopping by

Red Passion! A Wooden wall hanging by Dee




Hi everyone! Today for my project I have altered a wooden
 garden border panel,


Firstly I covered the entire piece of wood with gesso, once dry I then painted 
with Fresco Finish paints in the following colours pumpkin soup, 
London bus, blood orange and claret.


Next I coloured a white tag with the following distress inks 
spiced marmalade, fired brick and aged mahogany.


 I  then inked up the Neil Walker Fantasy Background stamp with aged mahogany distress ink
and stamped the entire tag. Next I sprinkled on clear embossing powder,
then gold and heat set.


 I tore the tag up and glued it randomly to the wooden painted tag. I then used 
my cropadile to put three eyelets at the base then using jump rings
 connected the beads to the base. 


I rolled out some Fimo modelling clay in black and used the Neil Walker 
heart stamp to stamp into it then I heat set it, and the calligraphy mat.


I rubbed treasure gold in Spanish topaz over the heart and 
calligraphy embellishment.   


once baked in the oven I then buffed up with treasure gold.


I also used some treasure gold on the painted tag to give it a gleam.


And make it shine!


I then added a brass ring to fix to the wall



That's it from me today! I hope you have enjoyed this project,
