And a little bit of Rock’n Roll

Yep – I’m in a good mood- I mean it is summer …so how could I not Even with lot’s of work and projects Summer seems for me the time to refuel and get a lot of inspiration for the next few months. All the sunny days and even nights outside, the parties and time with family and friends, the things you see traveling, bicycling or just doing something outside…it is the way to refuel before the days get shorter and and the time in the studio finally gets longer And don’t get me wrong…looking forward to those days too.

BUT….still managed to create some things with the always inspiring products by Tattered Angels – it’s doesn’t matter what time of the year it is – a little bit of this and a little bit of that…and there you have it…Rockn’ Roll – LOL

Fairy Land Tag

I love the Tailored Tags – so many possiblities to use them for fun projects, like book marks, gift tags, pages for mini albums – or just for a fun tag as I did here, using different Glimmer Mist Colors.

Another Project I did was this Punky Sprouts Album using lot’s of Tattered Angel’s Products like Glimmer Mist, Glimmer Glam, Glimmer Chalkboard, Glimmer Glass , Clear Stamps, Glimmer Glaze,Glimmer Screens, Glimmer Chips etc. Combined with the wonderful Graphic 45 Papers it came out as a nice Beach Album …ehem …Down the Shore Album- for my NJ Sis in Law

For the clear pages I used some of the Beachthemed Tattered Chiptiles and Glimmer Glass and sprinkled some Glimmer Glam right onto the pages.

The Canvas pages were created this way: I sprayed the Canvas with a solid color that I wanted to look through the later used screens. Then I placed the Glimmer Screens onto the Canvas pages and then sprayed with different Glimmer Mist and Glimmer Chalkboard Colors – kind of working them together. Before lifting up the Screens I tapped the excess liquid off with a paper towel. Some of the images that I used the screens with are also later on stamped over to highlight the image even more.

oh yummie Glimmer Glam!!!

I really had an aweful lot of fun to create this album!

Wanna see more- LOL – I have more- here is an altered Shadow Frame I made for our upcoming anniversary and I used the beautiful beautiful new Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist Fall Colors!!!! I love them soooo much!

And here is how the shadow frame looked after I had my Glimmer Hands on it

Here are the Supplies I used:

Tattered Angels: Glimmer Mist Fall 2010 Colors, Glimmer Glam Chandelier, Glimmer Screens, Tattered Trinket, Rockn’ Renaissance Costum Cut Outs, Tattered Traveler Clear Compact, Framed Fonts; SCRAPBOOK ADHESIVES by 3L™ Foam Pads and Crafty Power Tape, Clear Gesso, Pepples, Prism white Cardstock

If you want to know how I did this- you can see the tutorial video on the Tattered Angels Educator blog.

But wait….there is more…LOL – one more…ok? What about a layout to close this post?

*The Many Faces of Israel*

It remains my favorite to create my own backgrounds with teh wonderful Tattered Angels Glimmer Mists and with those cool Tattered Textures Stamps – not to forget the fun Framed Fonts that makes awesome frames for the pocket pictures I used.

So I hope those projects and layouts showed you how versatile the Tattered Angels Products are!

Wishing you a gorgeous and happy crafty day!!!!

Happy CHA everyone!
Mandy popping in from Australia to say Hello and share a couple of my newest creations.

Starting off with a card full of sunshine and smiles, misted with pretty Lemon Zest, Crushed Shells and SWAK and accented with a little Tuttu Pink Glam, a bright and cheerful combination.

Love layering mist colors across each other to see how they blend.

Lots of folks altered clocks a while back and that was fun but recently I saw a personalized clock in a fancy boutique with a very fancy price tag to match, thought hmmm, I have seen that lighthouse and very similar sandcastle and quickly ran home to whip one up.
Glimmer chips are perfect for altered clocks, they are slim enough to fit but with the addition of some bright colors can really make a statement. The only clock I could find had a black plastic frame that really did not look beachy enough. The frame got a rustic make over with a little plain acrylic paint and just before the paint set, misted spots with denim blue and dragged it though for a weathered look.

Altered books are a favorite of mine and a good excuse to play with new color combinations from the summer range starting with water slide and hula hoop on the background.
The tailored tag was misted with crushed shells and tutti fruitti with a touch of tutu pink glaze on the mistable die cut and finished with squirt of old lace.

Experimented with stamping using a dragon fly mist mat and hay ride glam to create a raised shadow that I stamped into. I added more textures using the hula hoop mist to color up texture paste streaked onto the bottom of the page with a little fan brush for grass.

Sharing new creations with you makes my day, feel free to ask questions or for more details.

Hi everyone!  So yesterday I told people it was June.  I’m a little behind.  :)  It took me all day to realize that it was actually July!  Time flies…seriously!  My June was full of weddings.  I made this layout of my Sister-in-law and her groom:

I used a bunch of Tattered Angels yumminess on this layout, including Glimmer Mist, Glimmer Screens, Calling Cards, and Stamps.  Here are some close up’s:

It’s hard to see in the photo but I sprayed Pearl Glimmer Mist on the white flowers to give them a bit of shine.  

I place some stamps in the background to help with the clustering.

And then here is a project I made for my sister, who just got married in Jamaica…

I used Glimmer Mist, Glimmer Screens, Glimmer Glass, Glimmer Chips, and Calling Cards.  :)  Here’s a close up:

I thought I would show you the edge too, because I took one of my favorite colors of Glimmer Mist (Frozen Lake) and just sprayed the edges of the canvas with it.

And finally here is one more canvas project.  I was working on a project the other day and my first attempt did not work out as I wanted it to.  So I started a new project and set this one aside.  Then I came back to my “messed up” canvas and used it anyways!  Art is all about the imperfections anyways!  :)  Here it is:

I used Glimmer Mist, Glimmer Glaze, Glimmer Chips, Ir-resist-ible Chips, Glimmer Glass, and Framed Fonts.  I used the cowboy Glimmer Glaze all around the edge and on the letters.   I just brushed it on after I did everything else.  I used the Mellow Yellow on the inside parts of the Glimmer Chip butterfly.  Here are some close up’s:

Well I hope you have enjoyed my projects and I hope you have a fabulous day!!!!

For the first time we planted a garden this year.  We just kept it simple.  Some tomatoes, zucchini, onions and some corn.  I am relishing in finding things that remind me of my garden.  When I saw Crafty Secrets Garden Creative Scraps and Webster’s Pages Sweet as Cherry Pie, they reminded me of my time in the garden.

I transformed this tin bucket with a little help from Tattered Angels, Crafty Secrets and Webster’s Pages.  I spritzed the blue gingham Pattern Paper all over with Patina Glimmer Mist to give a beautiful sheen.  I then used the Regal Classic Accents Stamp to stamp the swirl image and then heat emboss.  Distress the embossing more as I scratched some of it off to give a worn look to it.  I then spritzed the postcard from the Travel Bingo Boards and Calling Cards with Olive Vine and used the Garden Blossom Stencil and spritzed it with Coffee Shop.  For each of the precious Crafty Secrets images I brayered the Iridescent Gold over them and then added more glitter to highlight the images.  For the Glimmer Chip I layered Sunshine, Coffee Shop and topped it off with Sunshine Glimmer Mist again. 

For my Grow Journal, I spritzed Webster’s Pages Pattern Paper with Sunshine and then used the Garden Blossom Stencils to mask and stamp with Olive Vine.  I then used the Olive Vine Glimmer Mist and Garden Blossom Stencils to add interest to the burlap for the spine of the journal.   I again used the Garden Blossom Stencil and Olive Vine Glimmer Mist to add deminision to the front of the journal.  I added an all over Glimmer to the Gingham and Cherry Pattern Paper with Patina and painted on some Candy Apple Red Glimmer Mist to the Cherries.  For the butterfly Glimmer Chip, I layered Sunshine, Patina and Candy Apple Red and added more glitter to really make it stand out.  For the Grow I combined Olive Vine and Sunshine Glimmer Mist.  I spritzed the manila tag with Sunshine and Coffee Shop Glimmer Mist to give it an old grungy sort of feel.  I added Iridescent Gold to the images and then topped them with more glitter to make the flowers pop.  Everyone loves glitter don’t they?  For the precious little Glimmer Glass bird I combined a red glitter and a iridescent glitter. For the sweet Postage Stamp Frame Fonts I layered Sunshine, Coffee Shop and more Sunshine. 

Wishing you a creative day.

Hi from Singapore! I’m back to share some of my latest Tattered Angels projects.

Here’s the first one:

I created my own background design for this layout by misting some white cardstock. I laid out two butterfly glimmer screens over the white cardstock, then picking up the colours from the patterned paper, I misted the cardstock in shades of brown, orange and pink. The mists I used were Tattered Leather, Tutti Frutti, Peach Delight and Flower Power.

Here’s what the misted cardstock looked like:

And the completed layout:

As always, lots of inking, distressing, handcut details and layers on my layout.

And my favourite turn-to Tattered Angels embellishment – a chipboard butterfly from the Framed Font collection. lightly misted in Tattered Rose and inked in orange.

Next up, a layout using lots of Tattered Angels embellishments.

I used the Va Va Victorian Irresistable Chips on the layout. I really like that they’re resist-embossed so all you need to do is to mist directly onto the chip and the embossed areas will resist the mist, creating perfectly misted details every time.

Here’s a close-up:

I misted the Victorian chip rose with Apple Candy Red and the leaves with my favourite Olive Vine. I laid the the chip over Regal Glimmer Glass in cocoa. The alpha chipboards are from the Regal Framed Font collection. I liked how the original cream of the alpha chips looked against my layout and decided to keep the shade, but added some glimmer by misting it with Dazzling Diamonds.

I used more Victorian chip leaves and Glimmer Glass here. I like how the chip leaves work so well with the Prima flowers.

I layered lots of lace, trims and Websters Pages bloomers on this layout, which has portions of the cut out patterned paper raised up for a 3D finish. Some pearl flourishes complete the layout.

Finally, I have a card for you:

A romantic pastel card using stamps from the Timeless Romance collection, and a Regal Framed Font chip which I misted in Tattered Rose to complement the patterned paper.

I hope you liked my projects this month. I know I had lots of fun creating them. Check back here for more inspiration from the rest of the Tattered Angels Design Team all July.

Happy Scrapping!

Of Photos and Paper

Hi everyone!  I thought the blog was amazing this month – I loved seeing all of the Tattered Angels / Pink Paislee combos!  Before I show you my projects for the month, I wanted to thank all of the wonderful crafters that stopped by the Tattered Angels booth last weekend during GASC in Chantilly, VA.  I had a lot of fun at the demo table and all of you ladies were awesome!  It was also very nice to meet some of the Tattered Angels team – especially Kalie who did time with me in the demo booth, she was super sweet and she picks fabulous color combos.

So…on to my projects. First I have a card made using one of the Tattered Tags: Frames and Flourishes. 

The little black tag layered with it is from the Pink Paislee Baybeery Cottage Collection.  The foam swirls, glittered chipboard, brad and twill ribbon are also from Pink Paislee. The butterfly is from the Tattered Angels Framed Fonts Nature Collection. I sprayed the foam swirls (artisan elements) with Key Lime Pie GM. The butterfly, flower, and trim were all sprayed with Turquoise Blue GM. The trim and flower were made from the Pink Paislee Pleated Ribbon. I cut slits all along one side of the ribbon, I didn’t cut past the stitching that runs down the middle of the ribbon. Then I rolled the ribbon into a flower (using the same technique you would use to make those rolled paper or ribbon flowers that are very popular right now).

While I was at GASC last weekend I picked up the Spellbinders dies I’ve been wanting (Labels One and Labels Eight). The next two cards use the Labels Eight dies. I love these dies and I think you all are going to be seeing a lot of them! 

The card below uses patterned paper and die-cuts from the Pink Paislee Bayberry Cottage Collection and the Queen Bee Collection. The chipboard is all Tattered Angels. 

The  frame around the bird is from the Framed Fonts Postage Stamp Set (sprayed with Key Lime Pie, Meadow Green and Forest Green GM). The brackets around the die-cut are pieces cut from the frames that come in the Regal Framed Fonts Set (sprayed with Caribbean Blue and Electric Blue GM). The chipboard photo corner used as the roof is from the Regal Glimmer Chips Set (sprayed with the same colors as the postage frame). The bird is from the Va Va Victorian – Irresistable Chips Set (sprayed with Black Cherry and Cranberry Zing).

My last card uses patterned paper, die-cuts and large chipboard letters from the Pink Paislee 365 Degrees Collection. The foiled chipboard (wings, crown and stars) is from the Tattered Angels Rockin’ Royalty – Foil Chips Set.

The wings were sprayed with Key Lime Pie GM. The crown and stars were sprayed with Golden Terracotta and Tiger Lily GM.  The postage stamp frame was sprayed with Scarlet GM.

Well, that’s it for me today. If you are in the U.S. – I hope you enjoy the upcoming long weekend and have a happy and safe Fourth of July!   Take care – Patty

**UPDATE**  FLOWER TUTORIAL BELOW

Here is a series of photos to help describe the process for making the flower used on the Hello Card shown in this post.

Hi Everyone. As you know, we’ve been showcasing projects made with Pink Paislee and Tattered Angels projects together this month.  I recently returned from a wonderful vacation in Hawaii. These first two layouts use pictures from there.

This page highlights the amazing view we had from our balcony. I wanted to give it a real tropical feel, so I used glimmer chips and glimmer glass from the Seaside collection.

 I started off by using the palm tree glimmer screen and misting it with Patina to create the background.

Next, I sprayed the glimmer chips with Lemon Merangue. I layered everything together using some papers from Pink Paislee’s Bayberry Cottage line.  I sprayed a couple of the artisan elements, too. Toen one on top of the word ‘our’ was sprtized with Lime Twist and the other with Lemon Merangue.

I finished everything off with some tropical looking Prima flowers and some Pink Paislee chipboard letters.

The reason we ended up in Hawaii this year is because it was our tenth anniversary in February. This page showcases one of my favorite photos of my hubby and me. It was taken on the Big Island by my 7 year old! I started off with glimmer screens from the Regal line and stamped them with Olive Vine onto papers from Pink Paislee’s 365 Degrees line.

To create the cluster where the title is, I used some cut out paper, butterfly and tattered traveler framed fonts chipboard (sprayed Patina and Sunflower) and a Prima flower. I tucked in a Rockin’ Renaissance die cut sprayed with Olive Vine and cut the words from a Timeless Romance calling card.

On my last project, I used some glimmer glass from the Seaside colleciton. This time, I wanted to show how it doesn’t always have to be used for  summer or beach themed projects.

I backed hte images iwth paper from the 365 Degrees line and added some   Butterfly Framed Font chipboard that had been sprayed with Peppermint Stick. The stars are Heidi’s Rockin’ Royalty Glimmer chips.

I really like how this card ends up feeling masculine and summery all at the same time.

Well, that’s it from me this month. Thanks for stopping by and have a great day! ~Anabelle

This month as you might have seen already – and if not…do yourself a favor and look at all the yumie posts by me sweet and talented design team friends – that we teamed up with Pink Paislee. So much fun to work with!

*Phototray*

I created this tray for my friends Bill and Karen. I used Tattered Traveler Bingo Cards, Glimmer Mist, Glimmer Glam, Glimmer Glaze and Glimmer Chalkboard, ChipTiles, Glimmer Chips Traveler, Glimmer Glass Clear Destination, Screen Prints Clear Stamps

*Show your Hands*

I had so much fun creating this layout. I used Glimmer Mist and a Glimmer Screen on the Papers and then used the RubOns on the Glimmer Glass and the Paper. For the Pink Paislee Paper I used Glimmer Chalkboard.

*Family*

I used the scalloped Pink Paislee as a mask and sprayed with different Glimmer Mist over the edges. I also used Glimmer MIst and Chalkboard for the Chip Tile and then used an ink pad to release the embossed areas of the ChipTile. I used some of the Rockin’ Royalty Foil Chips and a Bingo Board.

Wishing you an amazing June
