Thank you Card share!

Hi everyone today i want to share a card i made a few weeks back. I used a basic grey paper pad by the name of true love which I purchased on http://cardznscrapz.com for my birthday during the summer. The card measures 5.5 inch x5.5inch. For the main image on the card i used a paper pieced and copic coloured image from docrafts that came free in a past issue of their magazine.

To layer the image i used kraft cardstock and pattern paper from the paper pad. I added some wild orchid crafts flowers and lace to the card with a row of bling to layer the lace. I punched out some some butterflies from the martha stewart punch and added bling to it 

Hope you like this card and thanks for stopping by 
Have a nice day!

What i did was i sarted of with the largest candle and added paper i then did a rolled paper technique and put another lovely sheet of paper showing through.
I fussy cut a few images from the paper and adhered them on. I made a little flag and used one of the sayings from the paper that reads " HE IS RISEN" and matted that on to black card stock.

Altered clock

Hi everyone today i want to share an altered clock i did using a clock from ikea.

It was originaly black and i painted it using a brown metal finish then ripped some papers from bo bunnys collection "weekend market". This clock was super fun to distress and paint and give a grungy feel.

For the inside i took out all the click wires and pieces (it was broken thats why i altered it) then i cover the inside back with a paper also from the collection.for this project i wanted to make my own embelishments so i make a little book out of old book paper. I wrapped a piece of lace around a metal thread spool and glued that down with glossy accents then what i did to symbleize the love banner i die cut a heart from a sizzix die using a piece of wire and paper and glued them together and adde a wild orchid crafts flower that i broke down and put a pearl in the centre. Anyway hope you all enjoy and have a great weekend thanks for stopping by.

Hi everyone today i want to share a spoon i altered. This was inspired by Karen who is JBLdyScrapper48 on youtube. Karen is having a giveaway challenge to alter eather a spoon or a fork so go a head and check her challenge out. I altered my spoon for the fun of it so here we go.

Ok i decided to do it in a vintage style. First i painted it with acylic paint and seeled it then i added multiple tim holtz inks. After that i cut a piece of canvas material and added that to the spoon.i gathered a few embelishments i had in my stash and adhered them down. I used a hand made flower that i created and i have a video tutorial on my youtube channel wich is Thedanolando if you want to see how i made that.

I added lace to emm... How would you say it the spine? Of the spoon and also a tim holtz paper clip with a heart charm to go with my handmade wire embelishment that reads LOVE. And thats all there is to it i hope you enjoy and if you alter a spoon id love to c it dont forget to comment and follow my blog thanks

Card share

Hi everyone today i wanna share a card i made using some scraps on paper i had lying around. I believe they are from the happy day collection by docrafts. I started with a blank piece of white cardstock and scored ot in half the i cut 3, 1 3/4 squares. On the second square I stamped a greeting that reads BEST WISHES. I set them to the side and adhered a piece of the paper in a horizontal position and popped up the squares with foam pads. After that i did some black stiching with a pen and added some blue ribbon and tied a bow. Lastly i added some martha steward butterflies using a punch i had and added bling to them and i also added some flowers i had in my stash to the top square. Hope you like thanks for stopping by
