Simon Says Stamp and Show, Show us your Yesteryear......

Hiya all....here we are again right before Christmas with a brandnew Challenge at the
 Simon Says Stamp and Show Challenge Blog


The Challenge for this week is Show us your Yesteryear....

I know I know...I see you thinking.....
At first I did not know what yesteryear meant, but with a little help from her amazing teamies I do now know...It is something old and vintagy......After I had my thinking cap on I decided to make a very "old" decorated Christmas tree.


The Christmas flower was made of the Tim Holtz Alterations Flowers Die and I tried to make a icy flower with the Tim Holtz Distress Stickles rock candy and Glossy Accents Glue Dimensional Adhesive and shimmered with the Tattered Angels Glimmermist Dazzling Diamonds this is also used on the Christmas tree and onto the sentiment. This was the first time I ever made a flower like this....and I must say it worked out pretty good....I am pleased about it and let me tell ya that doesn't happen often heheheh....


The papers that she used are from the Graphic 45 Christmas Past paperpack, everything was worked on with Vintage Photo Distress Ink. The sentiment is from the Tim Holtz Cling Rubber Stamps Odds & Ends. The image is from the internet and the ribbon and little pearls on a stick are from her own stash.


And this is my finished project......I think it worked out pretty good...hehehhe...love the ribbon and the papers from Graphic 45 are just great......
So guys wanna have fun again....then come on over to the Simon Says Stamp and Show Challenge Blog and just check out my AMAZING Teamies and what AMAZING projects they made.....Every week they amaze me......soooo beautifull

Simon Says Stamp and Show, Show us your Tim Holtz Technique.....

Hiya Ladies and Gents....wohoooo here we go wowwwwzersss we have another amazing challenge at the Simon Says Stamp and Show Challenge Blog...
Check this out.....the challenge this week is: Show us your Tim Holtz Technique....



And yes our AMAZING regular sponsor is....

Photobucket
Go and check out the store oke....it is really crafters heaven.wohooooo

Oke here we go with what I made for this weeks challenge....
I was thinking what kind of technique I could use ......from THE Tim....cause he has so many amazing techniques....woww...I think I can learn so many amazing techniques from Lord Tim......But I could only choose one so I have decided to use the emboss technique to alter a heart shaped box. Remember that I just HAVE to alter something when I get my hands on it.....so the heart shaped box was not safe for me.....I just had to do something with it...

So I used Distress inks to color the box, the colors are Aged Mahogany, Victorian Velvet, Vintage Photo and the Embossing Distres ink to ink up the swirls and the stamp from the Christmas sentiment Odds and Ends on it, I used the Cupper and White embossing powder to give it a vintagy look. I think that the heat tool cannot be missed to get the embossed look. Such a wonderfull tool to use.


The stars are from the Tim Holtz idea-ology grungeboard dots elements set. I can tell you I just got the set last weekend and I am totally in love with it. You can use the elements in so many ways....wowwzersss....The little snowflakes are punched out and worked on with Glossy Accents from Inkssentials and Glitz Stickles from Ranger. After I was finished with my project I used the Scrubbie to clean up my inky hands. Maybe you don´t want to believe it, but this little thingy is soooo wonderfull and you can clean your hands from all sorts of crafting stuff...


And you can see that I placed a little bit of snow underneith the stars and the lace. I think it looks nice....hehehhe, don´t you??


And here is my project when it is finished. Here you can see the whole heart shaped box with everything on it that I wanted to be on it... I can put some choclits in it and then can give it away as a present.
See what I mean??? there is enough space inside to get some yummi stuff inthere......hehee....
So wanna have fun again on the first day of the week ladies and gents??Then you just have to go and come on over to the Simon Says Stamp and Show Challenge Blog and get your thinking cap on and let start crafting oke? And while your at it, just check out the wonderfull creations of my AMAZING teamies wowwzersss your not gonna believe what AMAZING projects they have made...really you gotta check this out...and when you join in you even make a chance on a really wonderfull prize by our regular sponsor Simon Says Stamp.......

I think it is as allways a beauty.......
And this is what I made for this weeks challenge.....
First I gotta tell ya, I was soooo late with my DT card heheheh and I will tell you the reason why......it is because my daughters Denice and Shannon had the perfect idea......why don't we make "some" cards for the kids in our classes.......and that some were a LOT.....about 55 small Christmas cards....well I had to sit down and cut all the small sizes and stamped up all the images before I could make my own card heheeh.....but ohh welll that is what you do to keep your kids happy......
Oke...here we go now.....

so what do you think about these very pretty snowflakes???? I just got them as a present last weekend...wohoooo....I placed 2 on top of eachother.....and some glitz in the heart of the snowflake...

And here we have Tilda with her lovely friend Mr. Snowman....think these are just tooo darn cute....I colored them with my copics and used lots of Decorating Chalks gives a nice glimmer and glitz into the background, just like it is snowing......

And here is the card when it is finished. Used the fabulous papers from the Christmas collection from Graphic 45....really just a wonderfull vintagy color.......Love it.

Simon Says Stamp and Show, Show us your Holiday Greeting....

Hiya ladies and gents....here we go again..wohooooo with another fabulous challenge on the Simon Says Stamp and Show Challenge Blog..



As allways our fantastic regular sponsor has a fab prize that you can win when you play along with the DT from Simon Says Stamp and Show.....and our fab sponsor is offcourse.....
Photobucket

Go check this out it is absolutely crafters heaven.

For this weeks challenge I decided to make 2 candleholders for Christmas, I made these candleholders from two old roles where there used to be ribbon.....I have used the fabulous papers from Graphic 45 Christmas Past Deluxe Edition. You really gotta get this paperpad because it has the most wonderfull colors in there and offcourse fabulous images...wow.

Every piece of paper was inked with Distress ink: Dusty Concord, Vintage Photo and Forest Moss.
The flowers are brown and purple roses and worked on with Tattered Angels Glimmermists Dazzling Diamonds to make it real shiny. On the top and the bottom of the candleholder there are green stones from Basic Grey.



The lace is from my own stash just like the stars. The stars on top come from a chain, offcourse I could not get my hands off the chain and broke it hehehe, so took off the stars and inked them up and I sprayed them with Tattered Angels Glimmermist, the Dazzling Diamonds to give it that special effect.


So this is how one candleholder looks like...when it is finished.....I got the idea from a friend of mine, she made two of these candleholders for my birthday in march......and I thought they looked sooooo nice that one day I would try to make one or two....so I did but this time for Christmas. It is such a nice present to receive but also to give someone special at Christmastime......

And yep I told you that I had made two of the candleholder and here is the picture of the both of them, from above so you can see what it looks like from above. They are the same but with the difference that they are opposites....so the flowers are on the inside of the candleholders and the stars on the outside.....


It looks like the right one is crooked...but believe me it is not....It is not that easy to take a picture with all the glimmers and glitz on it hehehe....so I tried the white background and well this has to do.......The "live" project is allways better looking then on a picture....
So I want to thank you for reading my post and hope that you will join the DT team, I just know your gonna have lots of fun. And while your on the Simon Says Stamp and Show Challenge Blog just pay my AMAZING teamies a visit oke? they have made really AMAZING projects again...wowzerssss .........

Thanks for watching ladies and the most important thing is ...let's have fun outthere.
