Guest DT for Fernli Designs 4

Welcome Friends and Followers 



This is my last DT for Fernli Designs I have enjoyed using these 
MDF items there so easy to use they take to both
 Tim Holtz and Prima sprays so well.

This is a ATC Shrine 
Wooden corners are also from Fernli Designs 



This was also easy to put together the little hinges fit so snug
I added a bit of glue to the inside of them to hold them in places.
I used a prima spray on the insde and outside of the box. I used the same colour 
on the heart and corners.
Then I took 2 small cards that Prima do and they only needed a small 
amount cut off to fit inside I used paper glue to hold them in.




I added a pit of spotty paper to the lid from one the Prima collections.
I took a small chipboard hart and some letters, Fernli dose letters as well,
I covered them in Tim Holtz spray, 
I took one of the ATC and added paper 
I love this paper its old and grunge  looking
I used the same ink around the edging.
Then I added the letters and heat to make a sweet 
Valentines gift. 



I glued the hart and corners to the top with hot glue.
And used some of the left ink from the box and dabbed it over 
the inside card.


Thank you all from stoppping by hope you enjoyed this 
you must stop by and check out all the stuff Fernli has in the shop 
they add new stuff all the time and prices are amazing.

Love & hugs

Welcome friends an new followers
Hope your all staying warm.

I made this for my hubby's birthday and wanted to challenge 
myself  and do it  masculine   as most I do is girlie lol 


This is a fabulous set of cases from 







I first made up the larger 2 then did the smaller one 
in steps.



First I add some strong glue  to the base all around.



Then I put the sides on holding them for a second or 2 
then add the other 2 sides as you can see
 they are so easy put together,


I add the glue to the top the same as the bottom and it just slots on.


Here are the handles and back  hinges.




 I used A4  papers and got the large one out of 1 sheet
I lade the box on the paper and then drew around it.
then cut them out.


When I Added the front paper I used a needle to make the holes 
for the handles, then glued it in place.
Then I used TH distress pads to make them grunge.



I decided to I did not want to stack them on top of each other 
so I used hot glue to have them look like the are falling.


I used Prima papers and wooden tags to decorate,
I made some baby tags out of the scrap paper left.
I then added some chain to finish. 



Thank you for stopping by and I hope you enjoyed this little tutorial.
Love & Hugs

Guest DT for Fernli Designs 2









Welcome friends and followers 

Sorry I have not had a chance to get much done 
with my neck and shoulder playing up, And my daughter having 
my craft room to sleep when she's home.
And I have had so much on with my Customer care course 
and now English  and the volunteering I am doing.
There is not time for me to chill. 
I got to my room yesterday and got my last 2 
tutorials done.

this is an extra as I was playing with a few new things,
I love all those canvass I see where there is a small amount of stuff on there,
so thought I would try.
Hope you like it.

*********************



I took this fab dimensional ATC glues it together so simple 
I then covered it in Vintage photo (Tim Holtz)  


Then I took one of the small frames and a piece of  acetate
and cut a small oval to go on the back  and glued it down.




I took some lace and covered the top
.

This was the trick bit LOL 
I used hot glue and made the frame stand up I also used 
some of the flowers and feathers they also keep it up.
I used string pearls to add an edging 


I placed the roses before I glued them down and was happy with 
were they were. I made a bow and added it to the top of the frame and a key and gems 
and some sparkle stickles to finish.

Etchall tutorial a sweet glass set







Click pic to go to the shop.

/

Last day of this fab deal just click the pic to the the Link






Morning all my friends and followers 
 hope your all having a fab weekend,

I have not stopped I have 2 craft fairs next weekend 
and need loads of stuff
on to the tutorial


I got a fab 6 piece glass set from the charity shop,
so I thought I would show you can etch a few small pieces 
at once.

I used the dip n etch liquid for this project. 








I put all the saucers in a large plastic bowl 
you do need more dip if your doing this amount at once
Or a smaller bowl.
I lade them all in and added the dip then left for the 15 min's
time.



Once done I took them out and gave the a good rinse out 

Now with the glass cups the bowl was to big so I put them in a smaller 
pot.
As you can see there was etching on them and I love how they now look double 
etched I love this look..



Once I had done washing them I then added lace and flowers
to finish.


I hope you enjoyed this tutorial.

Thank you all for your wonderful comments and Love

Love & Hugs
Nicky.
