This Thursday Challenge 6 ''the golden rule''

The challenge this week for This Thursday is to create something you believe to be truly beautiful. Well in my personal opinion anything hand painted fits that category so here is my submission. The canvasses are 24inch by 18 inch and painted in acrylics with crackle paint and dimensional paint. In total both canvasses have taken 2 days to complete as for drying time.

Stempel Award

Wow when i woke up very rudely this morning by the other (bad) half frantically saying hes missed the bus and needs a lift to work i never imagined i had an award waiting for me!! Thank you so much for thinking of me Trish aka ChloeCards. Its very appreciated. I am not sure who i am going to pass the award onto yet so i shall have a good think about it!!

This Thursday challenge ''opposites attract''

This weeks this Thursday challenge is opposites attract, Now i don't usually use peel-offs but i think in this circumstance it has turned out quite well. Simple square card with all 4 corners cut off and different layered backgrounds some stamped. Stickers applied to finish. Disclaimer: i did not design this card nor am i taking credit for the layout.

Arty girlz challenge 40 ''Nature'', created by hand challenge ''Altered''

For this weeks Arty Girlz challenge i decided to enter a decorated a tin, which also fits the altered theme for created by hand. This is a simple round tin you can buy from any good craft shop. The base is primed and takes alcohol inks so easily and looks lovely. Tho the ink can scratch very easily a fixative like glossy accents glaze or if you have it an acrylic paint fixative that you would spray on a canvas painting. No idea what i am going to fill it with yet. I made this tin at Samuel Taylors, I choose the colours and paper and ribbon used. The tin shape was chosen for me.

I Dare Challenge - Bobs - This week its all about challenge

For the I Dare challenge Bobs told me to make an ATC with glass on it..... so here it is same as below, memory glass, UTEE and perfect pearls. This also fits with the This week its all about challenge of ''clear''. Unfortunately i am not very well and unable to leave the house and my heat gun melted itself instead of my UTEE so i have been unable to make a new one specifically for This Thursday its all about, i hope they don't mind.

I Dare Challenge - Sherry

On a forum i entered an ''I Dare'' swap. The idea behind it is you are in a group of 5 people and you dare the 4 others to do something out of their comfort zone, within reason, you don't want to dare someone and make them spend lots of money. My Dare from Sherry was to decorate a house for her, the other 3 will do the same and she is going to make a wall hanging from it for her craft room. This is what i came up with, hope she likes it.

Faux Sea Glass Pendant

Let me first of all say, the picture does not do these justice at all. They are see through and held up to the light look totally amazing but make an awful photo :(
.
You need ink, memory glass frosted or not up to you, UTEE, perfect pearls and a whole lot of patience. I put them into memory frames that's also optional.

Created by hand challenge ''Versamark''

This weeks created by hand challenge is to use versamark ink and chalk. So this is my entry. One of my fave stamps inked up with versamark and then pearlescent chalk dabbed on top. Sealed with hairspray.
