tutorial for creative epressions Dt make

well here I am today with my final Dt make before Christmas for creative expressions.

 I will have posts tomorrow and Saturday and will then be having a Christmas blog break..

 

 

thanks to everyone who has stopped by, have a wonderful festive time ..

so here is my make today using the if the crown fits set of stamps

( I wanted to show how you could use it for something without using the crown..)

 

 

I will include step by step pictures and try not to ramble too much,

 

so I started by making the heart, cutting the shape ..

and suing Tim Holtz riveted patchwork

 

 

then apply black paint dabber using finger tip and rub off excess

 

 

now for the key around it, this is a brass creative expressions key

that has been coloured using silver alcohol ink

 

 

now the backgrounds, I embossed silver keys onto a torn strip of card

and applied stains direct from the craft sheet

and for Base card I embossed clear keys and applied

black soot, picket fence and brushed pewter stains

 

 

apply stains direct to craft mat and spritz with water

continue to dip in to these, heat dry and re-dip until happy with the layers of colour

 

 

and finally assemble

adding Tim idea-ology letters..coloured silver with alcohol inks

 

 

thanks for taking the time to stop by

wishing you all a wonderful Christmas and happy new year!
