Ink and flowers make me happy!

Ink and flowers make me happy!

 

I Just love bringing my Zeus and Zoe box out to play!

 Each time is like a new adventure into inspiration!

 

My inspiration today came from the beautiful flowers, vintage buttons and vintage jewelry.

I combined the goodies from Zeus and Zoe with some recycled items and lots of purple ink to create this:

 

 

As you can see there are many different things on this canvas!

What do you think?

 

 

 

 

Vintage Glam Bling Wedding Bouquet

Hola my crafty divas!

I am super ecstatic to share this DT project with you all. I've been eying on Pinterest those beautiful brooch bouquets and I put it on my "to make one day" list. So when a bride to be contacted me asking if I could make her a bling bouquet I was over the moon. I FINALLY get to try it out. I used 4 synthetic roses and then the rest of the flowers were handmade by yours truly.  I added lots of pearl and bling accents, then to top it all off I added some feathers.  Here is the final result.

Thank you all so much for sharing your time with me and have a fabulous day!

Muah!

Shabby Window Frame

This is my debut project for Zeus and Zoe. The vintage lace and buttons from Zeus and Zoe inspired me to make something that had shabby-vintage flair.

My goal this year is to do more "Off The Page" projects.  I dug through my mini albums and canvases, looking for a format that clicked.  In my closet I found a pack of six mini canvases.  I decided to do only four of the 3"x3" mini canvases.  When I placed them on my desk, they made me think of looking out of paned window.

I built the four paneled frame from heavy chipboard.  I wanted it to look like it an old window, with layers of paint and cracks that had accumulated over the years.  After I built the frame, I knew that it lacked the elegance found in shabby beauty.

In my stash I had a large Dusty Attic chipboard frame.  I took the flourish from the frame and added it to the top of my window.

I used layers of lace, doilies, and buttons that I received from Zeus and Zoe to build the large flowers.

I altered some of the charms and buttons with either gesso and mist, or with embossing powder.  

The embossing powder, "Adobe Fire," from Lindy's Stamp Gang, gave the butterfly a beautiful sheen, which you can see better in the picture below.

Thanks for taking the time to look at my project.  

Have a great day!

Hi there! Lizzy here with my very first project for Zeus & Zoe, using the wonderful box of goodies Marivic sent me from her Etsy Shop:)

I've just gotten a pile of wedding photos taken off....& the vintage-y elements [with a modern twist!] work sooo well for this! 

  I wanted to get all the 'dancing' shots on one page, so I sorta went for a 'circle' design...that gorgeous flower & the heart [it was silver, but I painted it gold] from my kit made a nice 'central' point for the page.

 I've cut into the lovely pp so that it didn't all get hidden behind the photos, and had fun splotching around some of the Lindy's Stamp Gang 'Gossamer Gold' paint that I got in my kit...

...never used it before....I'm now in serious ♥♥♥ with it! I've also used the 'Rudolph's Nose' red colour in with my molding paste, to  create those pink circl-ish splodges in the bg too:)

 I'm a bit of a flair fanatic, so I've added some in here....I mean, my Mum & bro really WERE rocking it!!! The little gold button from my pack worked beautifully beside it.....in fact, I rather went a tad overboard with the buttons!!!

 And I've discovered layering sequins is pretty neat, too:):)

 

 The delish lace & trims that Marivic stocks worked really well around the page:)

Hope you've enjoyed taking a peek at my page ~ I certainly had a ball making it:):)

Thanks for looking & Happy Scrapping:)

Hello Crafters!

Happy New Year!

I hope this finds your new year going fabulous. My DT kit came from the Zeus and Zoe store.

This is my first project for ZZ. Whew hew. It was so much fun putting this layout together.

Here's the finished layout:

I admit I created this layout to enter into 2 specific challenges. The kit from ZZ was perfect to make this happen. I added a few bits from my stash.

Here are some close ups:

Thank you for looking and make sure to stop by Zeus and Zoe's Etsy shop to pick up crafting goodies and embellishments today!

HELLO FRIENDS!

I am so happy and excited to be here!

I got this huge box of beautiful stuff from the Zeus and Zoe store and was so very inspired by all of the gorgeousness! 

Vintage lace, vintage book pages, vintage buttons, and so much more!

Anyway, I stared at it for so long, no wanting to mess any of it up... buuut then I got over that and dove in head first! (insert big smiley face here)

This is what I came up with:

There is just nothing like sinking your teeth into some gorgeous supplies and covering it all with delicious color!

Don't you agree?
