crafty dieters class cards and altered calender


These cards are for a class I am taking tonight monday 24th August. Making these frames is a brillient way of using all those scap pieces of paper up , the background has been glimmer misted useing ' Tattered Angels ' Sea Glass , Periwinkle and Timeless Lilac . The stamps are inkadinkadoo set and these are samped using archival ink purple and embossed with clear powder.The 2nd card is stamped on vellum using a kelidiscope ink pad.
The Clown card is a Kadoodle stamp , on a cut out circle and circles embossing folder ( Cuttlebug ) and 'fun ' is also from a cuttlebug folder, stars are cut out .
This is my altered calender that I ' ve really enjoyed making I let my ' creative juices ' run wild and this creation appeared !!! lots of gluing ,stamping . beads ,feathers , glimmer misting , craft wire and this is the result .You can do what you like with the plain wooden calenders .

Hornbill and beeeater

I love all the african birds but I usually get the names wrong ... this is a Hornbill and a scarlet Bee eater ( I think !) .If you ever get the chance to go to he Kruger Park , go it is the most wonderful of all places and I love the peace and tranquility ....which can be ruined by the excitement of a elephant charge or a lion kill .I love the way you never know what is around the corner ....

GroundHornbill

This page is one page of two on birds , I think he male Ground Hornbill is a grand looking creature with his bright red , shame about the female , scruffy looking thing !!!
