peekaboo box with miniature roses

Hello to all, getting in early this week for a change, here is a gift box with acetate window, I got the idea from
here:  http://www.scor-pal.com/

I decorated the top with miniature roses, the box is 3"x3" so you can work out how tiny they are.  The other box is stamped just to give you a choice on how you decorate the box.....it was fun to make and will make a great little gift (probably with a more sophisticated gift inside, the grandkids only had these lollies that I could use) See you all on Monday

Love Jenni xx

Fathers Day

Well it has  been sooooooo quiet at my place this last week as you can imagine, no play school on TV every moment of the day, although I have been seriously tempted to put it on as background music! we are all missing the family like crazy.   Tomorrow nights class will be this Fathers Day card, I have used a Mo Manning image (I love her work) I painted some white paper with ink pads and punched out small leaves to give dimension, the image is coloured with Copic markers......,then cut out and put on the card with pop dots, again to give a little dimension

 Please forgive the poor editing on the photo, my NEW computer has broken down yet again and has gone if for repair under warranty, that is twice since I bought it, three months ago, I am not a happy little vegemite........and so of course my editing programme has gone too.

Waterlillies

Here is next weeks lesson, the flower that is, I am not capable of teaching the other stuff LOL, it is crafted in Vellum, painted with oil pastels and blended with Zippo lighter fluid! It's a lovely flower to make, comes together beautifully, I am sure you will enjoy.........the flower this week is Sally's choice.  I used a Mo Manning image "Finna the Fairy..you can find her here:  http://digitalpenciltoo.blogspot.com....I coloured her and the background with "( awww.....can't remember the name, the coloured paints in little pots.  The paints are glittery and are the ones from Luminart before Mica colour) Everything glitters on this card, I tried to make it look as tho Finna had floated down in a bubble to land on the waterlillies in the pond :-))

I am entering it in the Papertake Weekly challenge, which calls for Pastel colours.http://papertakeweekly.blogspot.com

ps. to answer the questions from the last flower, mostly I give the cards I make as gifts, but lately have just been using blue tac to attach the flowers to the cards, then once the lesson is over, I remove them, put them on a long stem and have them in a vase in my dining room, others I have displayed in "shadow boxes" with glass fronts......some are in a box in the wardrobe waiting for stems

A couple for me

I was a lucky girl as one of my friends bought me a Martha Stewart punch around the page for Xmas, I have so enjoyed playing with it, I have a little work to do to perfect the technique I am aiming for but wow I enjoyed myself, thanks Sally!!!

Lacie with Icecream

Hi again, my I am in a crafting mood, this is the third card in five days, I am impressed even with myself........ Due to unforseen circumstances, the card I put up for doing last Monday couldn't be done due to a broken punch, I have ordered more punches so we will do that one next Monday........see previous post!!  On Monday night we did Bouganvillea and I was very impressed with the quality of your cards you all did a great job (should have taken pics)  Anyway, enough rambling here is a Jo Manning image that I have just finished, love her images they are sooooo cute.......Here is Lacie with icecream and doesn't she look as if she is enjoying it?
