That's Crafty Reveal.

Happy Sunday Everyone,

It's been a very wet and windy weekend in the midlands. 
I hope you are all keeping well and treating yourself to a relaxing day 
or maybe spending your day with family or friends?

This post is a reveal of the latest That's Crafty products
including stamps, stencils and new mediums.

There's lots to see.. so please enjoy.


Created by playing with Flat Matte Sprays and the Dianthus stencil and masks, 
I painted, spritzed and lifted the ink off. This piece was just a test piece that was 
far to nice to discard. With one of Lynne's new Affirmations it made a pretty card.


Onto a greyboard Long Tag that i'd scraped with Gold interference paint I added 
water to the Walnut Crystals and used it as paint letting creativity be my guide.


Edged with a fine liner pen dots of multi surface paint create an Autumnal scene.


Using the Dragonfly and Lace Doily Stencils in different ways.


Running the dragonfly mask on black card through the sizzix big shot plus.
I clear embossed those raised areas and painted the debossed Dragonfly with blue
 and green interference paint the embossing helped keep it all within the lines.

Glued onto a long tag adding gem stone eyes & a fitting affirmation completes the design.


Painting first with Gesso, Texture paste was pushed through the 
Lace Doily stencil and a wash of Blackberry spray applied. 


Multi surface paints and posca pens bring the magnificent detail of the doily to life. 
Walnut spray and crystals define those shady areas with a sprinkling of crystals 
left to find their own way with a spritz of water. 


Given words from Lynne's affirmations complete the final tag.
I think this one maybe my new favourite *Favourite*...!!


Thank you for sharing your precious time.

Enjoy the rest of your day.

Until next time
Creative Hugs & Wishes

Shroom Town Book Cover ~ #That's Crafty!

Hello Creative Friends.
I hope you are all enjoying a relaxing Sunday?

I'm here today to share the finished project of last Mondays sneak peek using
*NEW* That's Crafty products showcased on Hochanda last Tuesday. 

Here's those *How to Do's* and how it came to be..

Taking a large greyboard surface I covered with 
deli paper, lace and then spritzed with Lime Lustre Spray.


Using those lace shapes as a guide I painted a scene 
using a mixture of multi surface and interference paints.


The texture from the lace and deli paper holds onto the shimmer
and the lustre from the spray soon finds it's way to the surface, although 
as you know it is hard to capture those sparkles when photographing.


I traced around the greyboard shape onto an 
unused exercise book and cut to the same size.

Stamping the Shroom houses directly onto the matching white/greyboard shapes,
I stamped the trees onto stamping card and coloured with distress markers.


Gluing the greyboard shape onto the exercise book cover, 
I first layered the trees then the houses to create that little town scene.

The greyboard tag makes a very robust book cover.


Triple embossing the houses with clear embossing powder 
really brought those sweet little Shroom Houses to life..


Lot's of lovely little accent stamps included in the Shroom House set.

The possibilities really are endless when you create your own 
books and if I had had more time I really would have gone to town 
(no pun intended) inside this little creation.


Complete Shroom Town Book Cover...


Thank you as always for sharing your time today.
Wishing you all a wonderful day.
