Cherish The Memory Inspire Seaside Themed Altered Letters

Hello

I have a new make to share using the Summer Feelings paper pads available at Cherish The Memory.
https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/614685279/studiolight-summer-feelings-card-making?ref=shop_home_active_20




I started off by painting each letter with white paint as an under coat and once that had dries i then painted over the top with DecoArt Premium Acrylic Turquoise. Then i applied DecoArt Texture Sand Paste and let it set.



I painted on Quinacidone Gold Fluid acrylic to get the rust. I wasn't sure to go steampunk on these or not so i met in the middle and went for a water worn look.


Next dye some cheese cloth. 
I used blue and light green to get this colour, This stuff is great as it gets disstressed when you heat dry it so you get this worn net look.


I used heavy gel medium to paste down the cloth and then i started decorationg the letters using the die cuts from the Summer Feeling Die Cut pad.


I also added gems and beads to the letters.


I used fake moss to create this underwater look. I was thinking about the things you find in the rockpools  after the tide has gone in.

How To Create A Dream Catcher Mixed Media Tag

Hello crafty friends

I have another mixed media tag to share and i have been playing with one of the new dies  that have just come into the shop this month. This one is the Dream Catcher  and is a two part thin metal die that should work on most die cutting machines.



I started off by using Brusho powders to  create the background by mixing a  few green and blue inks together. I then applied a stencil using modelling paste and dry brushed silver paint over the top and then added a few texture stamps.


I cut both parts of the die out using the blue wood effect paper from the Summer Feelings 6 x 6 paper pad and then spritzed with blue in and  dabbed over the top with blue metallic paint.


I finished off by adding some fibers and pearls to the tag.

Learn How To Create This Stunning Sea Side Layout


Hi all 

I have a new layout made using the lovely Summer Feelings collection available at Cherish the Memory.


Start off by mounting the photo to a background and trimming it to fit. Mark out where the photo will be on the layout  and then apply gesso using a palette knife. Next apply a stencil using black modeling paste and once it has dried, Spritz with Turquoise and sea green mist sprays.



Apply stamps around the layout and then take a few sheets from the matching 6 x 6 paper pad and cut into strips. Place the strips into position and glue down once you are happy with the layers. I added  die cuts and bits cut out of the empheria sheets.


I added some cheese cloth around the edges of the page and added micro beads with a little more blue ink on top. I spritzed some white flowers with blue ink and added them to the page.


I finished the page by adding a title and a few half pearls.

How To Create A Stunning Summer Shaker Card

Hi all

Today i have a fun summer themed shaker card to share today. The papers are from the Summer Feelings collect avalible from Cherish the memory.


Start off by covering a 6 x6 card with blue paper and then half the card with the wood effect paper.

To create the shaker box you just need a set of nesting dies. Choose the size you want the box to be and pop the smaller nesting die inside the larger one to make a frame. Cut out two frames from paper and craft foam. If the craft foam is a distracting colour you can paint over it with acrylic paint.

Next cut out a sheet of pattetened paper for the base using the largest die and again out of acetate for the window.

Glue the craft foam frame to the base and leave to dry before adding micro beads and glitter shapes.

Seal the bax with the acetate top and once that has dried, add the frame cut from pattetened paper.


Adhere the bix to the catd and then glue cheese cloth around it like a frame.

Add micro beads, craft stones and die cuts around the cheese cloth frame.



You can leave the chese cloth as it is or dab blue ink over it to add a bit of colour. I used watered down acrylic paint on mine.

Cover a 6 x 6 card with paper from the Summer Feelings 6 x 6 paper pad.
Apply a stencil mask over the top and let it set.
Paint over with white metallic paint.



Tear a sheet of wood print paper off from the corner and glue to corner of the card.



Pop out the bottles from the die cut pack and adhere in a row at the bottom of the card.

Stamp out a sentiment onto white card and colour it in before cutting it out and adhering to the card.
