DragonsDream TIO #115 - Behind the Mask

The chipboard tag was painted in white acrylic paint and then I pressed some bubble wrap into the surface when the paint was wet, the bubble wrap had been used previously with silver paint. I then painted some lilac through sequin waste and then stamped a small script stamp from PaperArtsy with aquamarine Archival Ink.
The butterflies are from a Stewart Gill stencil and I used magenta and lilac acrylic paint to pick out the design.  I then doodled with silver pen on the images to bring out the colours.
Thank you Elizabeth for this most interesting challenge.  I got covered in paint and had a thoroughly enjoyable time.  Thanks for stopping by and do feel free to leave a comment - all are most appreciated.

DragonsDream TIO #107 - Time Changer

My inspiration for this tag was the thought that perhaps there are parallel universes, different things happening to the same person at the same time.    The main image of a man inside a clock is from Crafty Individuals, the eye is Stampscapes and the square from PaperArtsy.  The words eternity and secret from Elusive Images.  I have also used backgrounds from Stampin Up and PaperArtsy.

DragonsDream TIO #78 - Texturise

Had great fun this week playing! I have used an embossing folder on brown card and coloured over with Distress Inks until I liked the effect. The green horizontal strip is grunge paper, dry embossed with circles and laced with string. I spent ages coiling string to create the embellishment at the bottom and then coloured it with inks and placed a brad in the centre of each coil. The circle stamps are from Paper Artsy and stamped in Rusty Hinge onto textured Bazill card. I thought it had an 'industrial' feel to it so I added the sentiment also from Paper Artsy.

Thanks for stopping by and do feel free to leave a comment - I enjoy reading them all on the odd occasion the internet is working at Redmoss! Hopefully BT engineer #8 will fix it!

Bah! Humbug! #43 - Fancy Folds

This card is called an Exploding Diamond card and I got the instructions here. It folds down to a 4 x 4 square and would be very useful for all sorts of occasions. It lends itself quite nicely to be turned into a cracker card. My only suggestion when making this card is not to use too thick card stock and not to score the card at 6", just mark it with a pencil.

The image is from Crafters Companion and the backing paper is from PaperArtsy called Rum N' Raisin.

DragonsDream TIO#57 - As You Like It

This tag has the title of Holiday Romance - bring back any memories, eh?

Been having a little play with some of my new stamps bought at Ally Pally and Port Sunlight.

The main image of the bathing beauty is by Crafty Individuals and was stamped with black archival and sponged with tattered rose, worn lipstick and stormy sky Distress Inks. The You Are Not Here is by Paperartsy and the corner pieces by Darkroom Door. Hope you like it because I would REALLY LIKE TO WIN the blog candy!!!
