Canvas Art


This is my first canvas using Texture and an image. I have used Acrylic Paint, Embossing Powder & Impasto. I just love working with canvas & am totally addicted.

Slice User Group Swap




I am a member of the MM Slice User Group & they are holding their first swap. The only restrictions is to use something that has been 'sliced'. I got the idea from the card that Jackie send me in our Chunky Book 1-4-1 Christmas Card Swap, thanks Jackie.

NGS Book Review - Circular Motion


This is the latest post for the Book Review. It is Circular Motion. I first stamped the flourish with versamark & heated it until dry. Then stained the card stock with dye inks. Over stamped with the flourish with dye inks & also clear embossed the flourish. Instead of making an embellishment with Hot Glue, I used a flourish cut with my new MM Slice Machine, then future embellished with Rhinestones. I have already used the left over background on other projects.

NGS Book Review - Sage Bargello


The next study in the Nancy Curry Book Review is Sage Bargello. I really had fun with this technique & am sure that I will use it more frequently in the future.

The NGS group is holding a Book Review. The book chosen was "Texture Effects" by Nancy Curry. Attached is my first 'class' on Resist Technique. This is the size of an ATC using Stampin' Up stamps and inkpad onto white gloss. I can't wait to do more.
