Mixed media canvas

Hello everyone, today I have something special to show you. Last weekend I attended a Finnabair class in Lund, Sweden. This is something I´ve wanted to do for a long time and I can say it was absolutely FANTASTIC!!! Anna is such a delightful person, so very creative and inspiring. Loved it!

I can hardly believe that I´ve created this, lol.

This is a canvas made with embellishments, stencils, pastes, gels and paints from Finnabair. I don´t hink I can describe how I made this in Swedish even less in English, lol, so you just have to enjoy the look of it. But don´t hesitate to ask if you have a question, I will try my best to answer them :) 

Have a lovely day

Hugs Lisa

Candy Shop

Hi all!

In my second post for today I have a card to show you using one of the new backgrounds from www.kennykstamps.com. I have used Candy Shop together with Queens Cutie, one of the clearstamp sets also available in the shop. I went to the local candy shop to see if I could find any candy to use for my card and when I found a pink and an orange lollipop I knew what color to use. 

I colored her with Distress Ink re-inkers in picked raspberry and ripe persimmon, and the Candy Shop background is colored with FC Polychromos pencils. The KennyK challenge starting today have a theme of using flowers so I made this very big flower using a Tim Holtz die. I found a piece of candy to fit the center of the flower.

Welcome to join our challenge starting today at Club KennyK!

Sophisticated Gentleman, a new release from KennyK

Welcome and thank you for visiting today. It´s time again for a new challenge at Club KennyK and the theme this time is a favorite of mine - One for the Boys. I´ve made a masculine card using one of the brand new releases from KennyK. May I present Sophisticated Gentleman: 

I had so much fun making this card. I´ve used a square base this time for a change and I´ve also made a square frame around the image using a Spellbinder die. Design papers are from Tim Holtz and I´ve cut out parts from the papers to decorate with, like the rulers and the tickets. I´ve made a pair of glasses using metal wire, you could spot them on the newspaper beside the hat. The image is colored with Polychromos pencils.

Here you can see the glasses
