I altered a Huge Heart, for this weeks challenge, the people who know me they know that I LOVEEEE hearts heehee and Crackle...they even call me the Queen of Crackle this is way too funny.....lol
So when it comes to hearts and when I saw this HUGE heart, I just knew that I had to alter it and to think that when I looked at it for the first time, it was White....well not anymore..lol...


I played with Spun Sugar, Tattered Rose and Vintage Photo Distress Stains and lots of Crackle on the background to give it the fragile look...The doily underneith the cute little image is worked on with Distress Stain, Glimmermist and Distress Stickles Crackle Rock Candy. I placed the lace with pearls on the side of the heart and onto the image.


A few roses dipped in Utee


just like the Papi\llon

Eileen, Claire, Brenda, Lindsay, Tracie, Kerry on their individual blogs. They have made some pretty amazing projects for your inspiration......
And this is what I have made for this week....


I have worked with this beautifull butterfly, it is one of the Spellbinders and I embossed it too played around with the Violet PanPastel and I just love this color, when you apply that in little circles on top of this butterfly you get this fabulous looking (at least I think it is beautifull) Violet butterfly, with just this great background...On top I worked with a little spool and lace...to finish it.


At the bottom of the notebook I placed a little bow, I flattened it a bit and placed two buttons with scrappersfloss, that stuff is fun to work with.


And on top of the notebook I placed a Tim Tag with the sentiment Journey on it....it was a "journey" for me to work with the PanPastels AND Crackle, I had lots of fun, this was a new technique for me and I made an old notebook into a new notebook.....


I gotta show you this before I will place a picture of the whole enchelada lol.....check out this lace, isn't it just fabulous.....

Oke here is a picture of the inside.....heehhe I worked on it with the Pans too....and you can see that I embossed it.


And where there is a FRONT there is a BACK offcourse too...so this is the back of the Notebook, you can see the structure of the embossingfolder and I think it looks pretty good with the Raw Umber and Violet PanPastels....

FRILLIE AND FUNKY CHALLENGE FOLLOW YOUR MUSE, OUR HOSTESS IS SUE

Hey there guys, this is my FIRST post for the


I am very excited about it and I hope you like what I made....

First of all I offcourse want to thank Linda for taking me on to her fabulous DT......thank you so much Linda, I am very honored about it. 2013 is starting out sooooo fabulous for me wowwzersss I still cannot believe that I am onto a new venture and I am very excited about it.

So here we go.....

And we have a fabulous challenge over at the Frillie and Funky Challenge Blog, the theme is FOLLOW YOUR MUSE and our hostess for this weeks challenge is Sue.....
So what does the theme enhale......check this out...
Sue is describing the theme like this....Now that the festive season is over and we are all getting back to normallity, it is the perfect time to let your "muse" wander free and see where it takes you. This could lead you down to the route of journalling, altered art or trying something you have never done before...Just make sure to let us know in your post where your "muse" had led you....



So I was having fun letting my muse take me to a Tag....yep....
A wintery Tag....since the christmas season is over I thought I would make a winter Tag with lots of blue colors.......so what I did whas, I played around with the Rosette from The Tim Holtz.....and colored the folded rosette with distress stains, then I cut the Snowflakes with the Big Shot and I used Utee on top in between I placed some lace and to finish the Rosette I placed a little metal snowflake with a gemstone.....



Then I saw this cute little girl that I found on the internet and I colored her with the Distress Markers and worked on the borders with the Paper distresser and to give it an even older look I worked with the Vintage Photo. 


And you can see the background here and there so you probably saw allready that I used the Emboss folder from Tim Holz and colored it with Distress Stains and sprayed glimmer mist on top....the bottom is created with the strip from the same emboss folder and then you see the snowflakes at the bottom even better, on top to finish I placed a few gemstones...the border is distressed with Vintage Photo.
Oh and how about the lace at the botttom? I just love it....



So guys what do you think about my finished project....the first one for Frillie and Funky....I am very pleased about it and had lots of fun.....so you wanna have lots of fun too, then come on over to the Challenge Blog and join into the fun. You can even win a fabby prize and while your at it, check out my AMAZING teamies and you can even visit their individual Blogs so you can see where their muse took them........Have lots of fun and I am very curious what you are going to make.....wohooooo and above all have lots o fun.....
