Kim Robertson Stackum High...

Hello Crafty friends all over the world,
 I'd like to introduce myself to you properly.
 My name is Kim Robertson and I am in the UK.
 It is my pleasure to bring you 3 projects this month and I hope you enjoy them as much as I did making them, (even if my fingers seem to have puff paint stuck everywhere )
The first is a 6x6 box and I used a very sweet Image from one of the stackums section on the fabulous Memory Maze Design shop which I decoupaged onto the lid of the box for dimension and interest. I also used chipboard elements that are so delicate but sturdy and so easy to add colour to.
I Then added embossing to keep the colour True.
 The vintage corners that are so very pretty look great with added puff paint and blasted with the heat gun to expand them, I rubbed a little gold wax onto the corner to make it shine and colour my project a little.
Here it is...
I added some little Easter treats as we are nearly at that time of year again.. they may have been 5 in the beginning haha...close ups below.

I hope you like this image, I loved the beautiful shades of pink as soon as I saw them and really enjoyed taking time cutting out the stackums (In the UK this is called Decoupage coming originally from a French term) wow history too hey...
The products used from Memory maze on this project were.

Next I have another cute card for you from the stackum selections , this time in a richer darker colourway , I am very much enjoying my time on this Design Team with the fabulous girls all designing with Memory Maze design products.

 Ahhh now everyone say it... cute hey....

 A close up on the pretty little bear, I added sparkle to each flower too.

 I really enjoy making Roses and these came out very pretty and although the picture hasn't picked it up there is some very subtle sparkle all over the petals.

Lastly I again added puff paint and heat set, adding gold wax
and bright blue gel ink all over to tone the chippie to the card.
You can see the Stackum layers just a little on the right hand side to make the image stand proud of the card.

My Last Card for this month of March and the start of my Term with Memory Maze is a rather elegant easel card using a very special stackum shoe design and a sentiment included on the sheet.



 I added a Beautiful chippie word to the side here and used a pearl embossing powder which looked so gorgeous and much better to the naked eye.

 A close up of all the tone on tone details with the embossing and die-cutting elements complementing the fabulous MMD chippies and Stackums.
Lastly the pretty Stackum shoe with it's diamond sparkle peep toe. I really hope
you enjoyed my first time out this month and I look forward to bringing you lots of surprises next month and maybe even a little altered goodies. 
Please feel free to leave me a comment as I do appreciate every single one of them
Take care and have a fabulous chocolaty Easter.

All for now
