Masterboard Monday but not today, again!

  Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.

I am here today to show you another project that I've been working on. The kit is an old one by the Creative Craft Academy (now 'Mixed Media Classes'):


I like to do my own designs and construction but sometimes it's just nice to have the kit with everything you need at the ready. I find this quite relaxing.

So just a quick visit to the project starting with the stencilling on an oval canvas and then a layer of Gesso.


Resin elements added. These all come as part of the kit.


And then some SnipArt chip board pieces.


Lots of spraying with red and orange inks and a little Mica powder rubbed over the surface. 
I finished this with the brass watch cover and bees and then added the flowers and postcard.
All done and hope you like it.
I will get these projects finished but there's more to follow yet.

I would love to hear your comments.

Many thanks for stopping by and happy crafting,

Friday Fun Day with Smiles.

  Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.

Angela here again to show you what I've been up to this week.


Flowers in the park are looking lovely.



A great collection.


This is in the park too.


I think someone's been building a den.


Back in the garden Alfie decided to sit amongst the bluebells, no idea why!


But by the look on his face he's enjoying it.


On the way home from the park we were met by Kitty.


And here she is! 
She comes to see us when we're out walking the dogs.
She was supposed to be a house cat but they can't keep her in so she visits the houses in our street.


She is so beautiful.

That's about it for today really but I do have a few funnies for you.









Daisy's favourite thing When you least expecting it!

Have a great weekend everyone and
 thanks for stopping by.

And if you would like some more smiles you just need to pop over to see what our other friends have been doing this week at Annie's for
"This Week's Smiles" and you can also share your  smiles too.

WOYWW -776 - What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday.

 Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.

Hi Workdesk friends. 
We are here for another Wednesday at the Workdesk and here is:
"What's on my Workdesk this Wednesday".


If you don't know what this is all about then please visit the
 
Stamping Ground, our host Julia will explain.



So here is my desk for today!


I've been in the cabin this week working on some MDF projects.


This one is in a box as I've been spraying it.
There are more details if you're interested here:


Cleaning some stones and pebbles, you'll see what happens to those when I get on with the project.


I thought you might like this. 
I don't do much sewing now but these are large fabric clouds with stuffing that I made some time ago. The thing at the top of the clouds is a big red heart with wings.


And just in case anyone thinks they are welcome when I'm working, my sister-in-law bought me this!

So that's me done for today.

 Thanks for stopping by and hope you will pop over and join in the visits around the other desks.

 I'm off now to see what everyone else is up to.
Have a great woyww 
and 
happy crafting,

Masterboard Monday but not Today!

 Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.

I am here today to show you an MDF project that I've been working on, another kit by the Creative Craft Academy (now 'Mixed Media Classes'):


A small box.


A beautiful stencil.


Covered in white Gesso and added a few embellishments then started spraying with green ink.



It's always a good idea to protect your work surface when using spray inks and a box like this is ideal.



Nearly finished.


Been adding some foil too and a few extra brass embellishments.


All finished.


And finally.....


covered the inside with paper from the packaging.

So that's your lot for now.

I would love to hear your comments.

Many thanks for stopping by and happy crafting,

Friday Fun Day

  Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.

Angela here again to show you what I've been up to this week.


Found this in the cabin hiding in a box. Apparently it's probably a 'False Widow'. I gave it it's freedom over the fence!


After I got rid of the spider I spent some time crafting with Alfie and Daisy joining me.
Daisy is there somewhere! and Alfie has been doing a bit of rearraging with his dog mat.


That tired him out so he had a lie down.


This is the start of a new canvas project.


And this one is almost finished.
I'm trying to catch up with some old projects from Anna Hersom. It was known as "Creative Craft Academy", now "Mixed Media Classes"


This was a nice surprise in the garden as these lilac bushes haven't flowered for a while.


So pretty.


All clean and back indoors. Look at that face!

Now where is Daisy, she's here somewhere!

Anyway while she decides to come back we'll have a look at some funnies.


Dog funnies obviously!




Have a great weekend everyone and
 thanks for stopping by.
Hopefully Daisy will turn up for next week!

And if you would like some more smiles you just need to pop over to see what our other friends have been doing this week at Annie's for
"This Week's Smiles" and you can also share your  smiles too.

WOYWW -775 - What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday.

 Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.

Hi Workdesk friends. 
We are here for another Wednesday at the Workdesk and here is:
"What's on my Workdesk this Wednesday".


If you don't know what this is all about then please visit the
 
Stamping Ground, our host Julia will explain.



So here is my desk for today!


Not very exciting I'm afraid but....


I do have these new stamps and stencils to play with.


And I found this in the drawer when looking for something else, it might be useful when playing in my Grid journal. I have to say that it must be years old.


Also new Hot Foil Plates. 
I tried my best to get the same ones by Spellbinders but they just aren't available anymore in thne UK so ordered these from Temu. I wasn't keen to use this company but I have to say the product looks good and it arrived quicker than expected and so cheap and free postage too.

Monday post was more Masterboard journal grids.


Not sure whether these will end up as cards yet.

Anyway that's me done for today, sorry there's not much going on.

 Thanks for stopping by and hope you will pop over and join in the visits around the other desks.

 I'm off now to see what everyone else is up to.
Have a great woyww 
and 
happy crafting,
