love letter

.. the background of this love letter was stamped with Hero Arts La Letter K5344. A piece of twine ties the small floral heart to the aqua coloured embossed paper securing the two parts of the card together. The embossed page of the card actually opens up, as well, giving three pages for letter writing (the first page being only 3/4 of the size).  The beautiful floral heart and embossed paper are both from Franziska :)

Thanks so much for visiting. Wishing you a wonderful day.

... moments like this

Heart Journal 2012

moments like this:  For the month of April our project was to create a heart using a mixture of gesso and baking soda, spreading the mixture on our heart and heating with a heating tool. The heat causes the mixture to rise and form a skin. I used my Hero Arts stamp Floral Brocade to make an impression. I was a little nervous before starting this project as I was unsure of how successful I would be. At one point my image flattened ... so I tried to use heat again .. and to my surprise .. the skin swelled up again : ) .. then I really started to enjoy what I was doing.  I lightly sanded the image to polish it up a bit. It reminded me of making plaster reliefs ..  it looked a little like plaster ..  however after glazing with several ... well .. many coats of matt medium and teal coloured spritzer, the heart took on the texture of soft leather. This was so much fun! Thank you  Lilibulle! I am looking forward to May!

Thanks so much for visiting. Wishing you a safe and happy weekend.

hello again

Just saying hello again with another little card. The background patterned paper was custom made with HERO ARTS Classic Fabric Design CG245. I love this idea and inspiration that came from Jacqueline  :)


Thank you for not forgetting about me after such a long while :)

... just saying hello

Just saying hello. Although I haven't been able to post over the last month, a day hasn't gone by when I haven't been enjoying everyone's beautiful, creative work ... and the inspiration that you all have given me has been incredible!

...still remember that spring and fragments of a heart

Heart Journal 2012  

Fragments of a Heart: For the month of February our project was to do a piece of art and to stamp a background with air drying clay. Due to my hours of work I'm a little bit late in submitting this for February.  
Still Remembering that Spring: For this month of March our project is to use stamped Utee on a collaged paper base for more relief. Since I didn't have Utee, I used several layers of heated embossing powder.
I'm loving this creative process of our Heart Journal so much. Thank you Thealie  and Lilibulle :)

Thank you for visiting. I hope you are all well. Wishing you a safe and happy week.
