Fat Pages to swap with Hilda

This is Marilyn

This is Marilyn, she is my very first Dolly, she has been made for the Paper Paradise challenge being run by Sam on Lots to Do.

Over the last few weeks, several of the girls on the forum have bought lots of stamps from Paper Paradise via the lovely Sam.

As a thank you Paper Paradise gave us a few of these lovely dolly sets for us to have a go at and see what we could make.

Thanks to Sam and all at Paper Paradise for the chance to have a go at something new. You can contact Paper Paradise at : http://www.paperparadise.co.uk/

I will miss Marilyn when she is swapped, so I hope who ever gets her, likes her.

Skinnys for 'Humour' swap

These are the 3 Skinnys I made for the 'Humour' swap that I'm hosting, the idea is to create items that you think reflect your sense of humour. These stamped phrases reflect mine, they are all from Viva Las Vegas Stamps, the backgrounds are perfect pearls.

9-4-9 All finished

9-4-9 1940's - 1950's Pin-Ups

This is the 9-4-9 that I have made for the swap I am hosting on the Lot's to Do forum.

Secret Santa in July

This is the secret gift that I made using Beermats which were covered with paper and stamped, and then items made using the melt pot were added. It was made into a hanging and I was really pleased with the way it came out.

Green Skinnys

These Green Skinnys were made for the Lots to Do Challenge.

Houses

These were made tonight for the Lots to Do Houses challenge.

July/August 9-4-9 Challenge

This is my 9-4-9 for the Lots to Do forum challenge. The theme this time was Black & White.

I wanted to do something different, so Itook an image of Tattoo Art and added some additional elements which were stamped and embossed, black on white and white on black.

Altered CD

Altered CD, the CD was covered with sparkly paper and then a piece was added which was made using the melt pan. After gilding with perfect pearls I added bedazzles and glitter glue then finished it with some glossy accents just for a final shine.

Beer Mats

These are my beer mats, decorated in the Tim Holtz style for a Lots To Do swap.

The first is distressed with Tim's inks, then stamped with one of his images and the tower was spot embossed with his distressed powder.

The second is distressed with inks and stamped a bit as above, then two grunge board hinges were again distressed as above and then added to the mat with a couple of other bits.

The third was again distressed and stamped with Tim's inks and stamp, then 3 small squares were stamped using a different stamp, coloured in and then added using foam pads.

Inspirational Words

A set of ATC's made using images with inspirational words.

I've also added brads for some dimension.

Altered Frames

These are a couple of cheap pine frames that I have altered, scan's haven't come out too well though.

The first one was inked using one of Tim's ink pads 'distressed wood' then sponged on some copper ink. I then stamped with a paisley stamp and coloured in some of the flowers using metalic & stardust pens and added then jewels as flower centres.

The second was covered with a piece of beautiful distressed paper and then a couple of glitter corners were added to cover a bit of a blooper and a few jewels added for some bling.

Paris Set

I decided to do a set of 3 different items, there's an ATC, a Skinny & a Fat Page. They all have the theme of Paris.

MY FIRST PROJECTS USING THE MELT POT
