More samples from Chocolate Baroque

Good morning Lovelies. Did you see our fab Lesley Wharton yesterday on The Craft Challenge, what a professional she was, so calm and warm and great demos, the samples from my teamies were fab too, here are 3 more that I made.

I used Distress markers on the trees.

Here I've used the Shaving foam technique.

These little wooden tags were hidden away for ages in my stash, I used Gesso and Silk Acrylics to colour them and my birds are on Shrink plastic that were coloured with watercolour pencils.

Thank you for visiting today, have a great one xx Zoe xx

Workshop projects

Good morning Lovelies, and what a lovely sunny but fresh morning it is, I hope you're enjoying your weekend?

I had a wonderful day yesterday as I always do at Eileen Godwins Workshop down in Rochester Kent, details here, if you haven't been yet you are definitely missing out, such fun. I usually go to group 2 but I'm busy next weekend and so infiltrated group 1's cosy little group and what a lovely bunch of ladies and Eric, although I only knew one other person there I felt so comfortable and welcome.

Thank you Eileen and group 1 for a fab day

Here's what I made. I had to do a little homework as time flew by, but I'm pleased with my Canvasses, the other ladies and Eric also produced stunning works of art.

 

The Butterflies on my last canvas are by Chocolate Baroque called Patchwork Butterfly you can purchase them here

Thank you by stopping today, have a fab weekend xx Zoe xx

I won!

Good afternoon Lovelies, what a beautiful day it is today, sun is shining so I'm happy :)

I'm also very happy because I "liked, commented and shared" a post on the Craft Stamper Facebook page and was absolutely thrilled to be told I'd won some fantastic stamps by Indigoblu, I love their stamps and have quite a good selection already, so it was fab to receive some that I didn't already have, anyway they arrived yesterday and I got straight to work on creating a Journal page.

I used Dylusions paints which I applied and blended with a wet wipe, the circles were a combination of pot lids and circle stamps also by Indigoblu which were stamped using black and white Gesso, I filled in the circles with white Gesso and coloured with Gelato's, blending with my fingers, some gilding flakes with Flitterglu added some more texture.

These were the sets I won, but I did add other Indigoblu stamps to my project.

 

 

I hope you like my Journal page? Thank you so much for visiting today, enjoy the sunshine xx Zoe xx
