Queen BEE

HI all... have you all got that happy monday feeling? I overslept this morning and it's thrown me for a loop. Anyway, I've made this house and housed this cute little sassy Queen Bee in it. I really love it... the colours are very bright. 

It is for the Happy Daze monthly challenge theme of JUNE BUG.

 I knew I wanted to use the new set of stamps I've got from Artistic Outpost... Whimsical Melange , This is a brilliant set for making houses, hanging pieces and shrines. The Sassy Bee is from Catslife Press and the rooftops at the bottom are from this Zetti stamp. It's fab.

 I drew the zetti border around the house and then stamped the ruler from the Artistic Outpost set a few times and made a frame.

If you join in with our monthly challenge you've got the chance to win £15.00 to spend instore at Happy Daze! All the deets are here

Altered Domino By Carol Fox

I have been experimenting for a magazine article and this is one of the little pieces that I was playing with while trying a few things out.
It's a little Domino Fridge Magnet. I have used new things on it so it does kind of fit in with the challenge theme for this month.,
The stamping is done with Teesha Moore Rubber stamps, I am so pleased that Moira has started to stock these as there was no UK stockist before and I always had to order from the US and they would seem to take ages to come.
I have used the little legs stamp and then masked them off to stamp the swirl for the background. Its coloured in with Alcohol inks and then given a coat of glossy accents which has sealed all the charms in place.
For full details of the challenge this month and how to upload your imaged have a look at the original blog post here.

A Teesha Moore Christmas

Hi,  have created a small canvas and a large tag, these are both going to the same person as gifts for Christmas.

The small Canvas had been painted and inked, stamp by Teesha Moore and the moon was created with Gesso and Texture Paste as I wanted it to look like a round of Camembert........

The large Tag has piano backing paper which was masked with the Clock Mask of Tim Holtz and sponged with Distress Inks.  Stamp and Cut outs by Teesha Moore.  All available at Happy Daze.

Looking forward to seeing your creations this month for this great versatile challenge.
