Purple love story slide

I got lost in crafting and wanted to do something for Pink Elephant challenge fave colour combo
Mine is purple and white. I hope you like my slide ( I hope its acceptable for this challenge )

Here is my slide with a special thanks to the lovely Liz for the slides she sent for my birthday and to the equally lovely Cheryl for the gorgeous heart charm you see here and not forgetting the wonderful friend of mine that sent me this amazing grandfather clock stamp ...Susan ! Thanks Ladies, you are all the best !

This is a love story set in the world of fame and fortune. Memories of a screen love that turned real ... in my imagination anyway :)

Torn Recycled Paper Rose ATC

Here I go again, had this idea and it had to be tried so this is the result of my idea to make a torn paper rose in antique pink.

The rose is just layers of torn magazine paper which i have played with, rolled,painted and then glossed with a little deep mica pigment for accent

The background is acrylic layers and crackle glaze in pale dirtied pink and pale dirtied blue
I then distressed more by pulling away bits around the edge

The image is one of my own collection and the butterfly is a tiny enamel pale pink one from a broken necklace i recycled

The whole thing including the base card is recycled products ( cept the image which i had printed ages ago )

Torn Paper collage

This was todays make. A wonderful blogging friend of mine Sally introduced me to art trader which has an article on whimsical art. I am hoping that this fits in that category. If not i at least enjoyed my little torn paper collage and had fun with the rainbow and the sky especially.

Base is Altered book page using acrylic in sky blue & white plus my sakura pens for hearts and rainbow
The rest is built on torn scrapes of card and paper taken from my stock.

Altered Frame




















This is my altered frame which i finished yesterday. It includes acrylic and crackled painted surface and has all kinds of embellishments all recycled including old jewellery and watch part, Some gorgeous glass flat mottled stones and handmade paper beads from some scraps of paper I had lying around.

Plus i added some images i had printed using transfer technique of angels and a mermaid creature. The swirls and colours are just hand painted free style as suited my mood.
I had a lot of fun making this one
