Say cheese!

I bought a dodgy looking plastic photo frame a few weeks ago and since it's rained all day, I decided to get my fingers working.

The frame was sprayed black with simple acrylic paint and left to dry. Great opportunity to have a quick brew.

Then I rubbed treasure gold gilding wax onto each of the frames. I used gold, silver and copper.

The cuttlebug was used to create a few embellishments. These were cut out using black card and the rubbed with the gilding wax.

I used silicone gel to attach each embellishment to the frame.

I then printed out some of our photos from the past few years.

Thanks for looking

Pretty little stamps

Today saw me crack out the inks and stamps.

I made this card for my fairy godmother..... Every girl should have one!

I used distress inks and card-io majestix stamps with a little glitter glue to finish.

I am planning to make this years Christmas cards with card-io stamps. They are really pretty and so easy to use.

Jeff and his nuts!

So when the time comes for a bit of adjustment Jeff needs the right tools

Jeff also needs a reality check...

I love my husband

What to do with the little ones

It's the summer holidays so I need to start and think about what to do with the little kilner jars I have acquired.

Our sweet peas look fantastic sat in one of the smallest kilner jars.

Jingle Jangle

So the purchase of a new bike means the Walker household is being taken over by keys!

I have been considering a key hanger for a while and today I created one.

The hooks were bought in my local cheap shop

The canvas board is from The Range.

I have used several different coloured gilding wax from creative expressions and Treasure Gold.

The cogs have been cut using my cuttlebug, spellbinder and X Cut dies.

The photo doesn't do it any justice. It looks great and keeps all my keys handy.

Take care

Sam
