Creating With Wendy

For April our challenge was 'stickers' and boy, oh boy!!!...I was giving myself a hard time of trying to think of what to do. It would of been so easy to make stickers if I only ownered a sticker making machine...lol...well, I think I came up with the solution and ended up putting together some 3D stickers using Ginas words from her stamps and digi downloads...the end result...fabulous stickers! These would be great to pop into a happy mail for someone or to use in your art projects and if you don't own a die cutting machine, you can always cut shapes by hand and still end up with some awesome stickers.   *************** Once I had made the 3D stickers I used some of them for the front of my cards/notes that I send to people in my swaps or thank you notes.... Thanks for stopping by, Have a Great Day!

I have been making quite a few crafty things in the past couple of weeks so I thought it was time to get some paint on my fingers again. This is where I made an art journal page and using a decorated envelope that was sent to me and putting layers after layer on the pages to get an effect I was happy with. I cut the envelope up in to a couple of flowers. Hope you enjoy! Here are a couple of pictures of the final layout. Have a Great Day!

I was asked by a fellow Youtuber to show my process for making my altered paper clips with the sayings on them. It is a very simple process and the end result is very lovely. They can be used in junk journals or on any other journals as an added decoration. The background has a slap of paint on it, then is stamped on using stazon in. Then a border of faux stitching using a sharpie pen. It is then put together using hot glue and a small shaped heart or circle on the back to cover any unsightly glue. The whole process video can be viewed below, enjoy! Have a great day!!!

Recently I joined a swap at our Australian Art Swap Group on facebook where we had to put together a flow-ish Journal. I absolutely love putting these together as it gives me a chance to use up a lot of papers and items I have been hoarding. A flow-ish journal is based on the Flow magazines and books with the intent that everything inside can be pulled out and used by another person in their own art works or projects. Below are a few pictures and videos of me showing you through the ones I have put together. Once I start one, I seem to want to keep making them. Todate, I think I have put together at leadt five of these types of journals and sent them to friends and swap partners. This Flow-ish journal is the one I made for the swap. The cover was a real estate guide booklet and I decided to decorate it, to make it look a little prettier. It is full of patterned papers, die cuts, tissue paper, handmade envelopes and pockets filled with odds and ends, that I thought the recipient w...
