WELCOME TO 2015

Hi, I hope 2015 has started out as you wanted, the weather

over Christmas and new year has been amazing hasn't it!

 

I made this little pixie house when I was on leave, using a 3D ,MDF box house

From Imagine If , see there other fantastic MDF products

HERE

 

 

I covered it on the out side with paper .

 

And painted the inside

Covered the floor with a wood look paper

For the windows I cut a over lay to size and glued it to the window

Next I used a cake board  for the base

 

This strip of chipboard fence , I trimmed it down and painted it

to use as a ladder

I traced where the house will sit as I wanted it smothe

Using course texture paste I covered the rest, to give

a rough look

I run the ladder/fence through the cuttle bug

Once the texture paste had dried ,I painted it with gesso



I didn't have the right green so mixed two together to give a

uneven color green 

I found a strong twig to use as my tree

I drilled a hole for it to fit into

Put it all together, I added a inside light and some fairy lights to the tree

Below is the night time photos

 

 

It looks pretty cool at night, makes a good night light :)

 

Thanks for taking the time to visit and check out Imagine Ifs very

cool products. Stay tuned in as Jo has a few very cool new things

coming up this year.......... My lips are sealed hehehehe

Photo Box Note Holder

Hi, Today im shareing this fab photo box from Imagin If.

 

I always get so excited to get started, that I often forget to take a before photo or a in progress shoot,

 

 

 

I really needed something close to where I always site to remind me of important things

that I needed to remember , like hair appointments birthdays etc. so this was perfect.

 

I covered the out side of the box with paper, then painted the inside cream and also the top (photo frame)

I then in bossed the inside using a  stamp..

 

The top I used crackle medium then painted black over that to get the old paint look,i in bossed one end and decorated
with flowers arrows and a wee angel . Hope iv inspired some one just a little today :)
Thanks for checking out my photo box .

A Card For A Friend ...... Imagin If DT project

 

Check out this cool little BOOT

I have used it on a card here

but it lends its self to many other things

 

I used some left over papers and other little bits and pieces

 

 

 

 



The verse is from Imagine If Quotes and Proverbs sheet

 

I would also like to share a box I made for my sister

these are a packet of cats I got from Imagine If.

you can find them here at Fix Design which is

part of Imagine If I had them cut in chipboard I 

really love the fact that they are all different, which

worked perfectly on my box.

 

 

I panted them black  to look like silhouettes,  

 

Then added them to the box I had just finished, Take note

of how the cats look, some are back on some

are side on, I just LOVE these .

 

Here is the box front on , my sister hand painted the china cat

and I attached him to the top of my box.

 

Thanks for visiting my blog. If at any time you would

like to know how I achieved a look, please just ask and I can

email instructions

Have a lovely crafty day :)
