Memory Maze May DT reveal

Hi all 

Kim here from the UK, I hope you lovely mums all had a wonderful Mothers day this year and had lots of special treats.

I am here to show my little May treats so without further ado I will start with my gorgeous little box for a new baby boy..

 As you can see I used the Stackums again this month but made a pretty 6x6 box and also used the Its a boy chippie, I used Sakura pens to colour it in and then highlighted in white gel pen to give it some movement.

A close up and you can see all the gorgeous spots on the elephant, what fun.

Here is a side view so I can show you the ribbon work on the sides.
I really enjoyed making this one for you  all and I think it would be lovely with some little booties inside and maybe some mittens or a little hat in tissue paper, How nice would that be for a new mum.

My next project was a melted art card and I added a little gold bird cage into the effect.

 I melted some Ultra thick embossing powder onto some card on my craft sheet and then had a stamp ready so soon as it was melted I pressed the stamp into it and waited for it to cool just a little, I then lifted out the stamp and ripped the edges away on the paper then left aside to cool completely.

 You cannot really tell from this picture as it quite late at night but i coloured this gorgeous little birdcage in gold it twinkles in real time so much but unfortunately you cant see it so you will have to close your eyes and imagine water sparkling with the sun on it for me because this is how this glints in the light with the Mica powder in the composition.

Code C0170

                                                                  

........................................................................

Lastly I again used the Stackums and this time I used a very special horse and foal with a very unusual right edge stack um, I have tried to get in close so you can all see it too.

 I covered a frame in leather or skin type paper and cut out the aperture for the main image. I made a couple of rosettes One for !st place with a red ribbon and the other to hold the Happy Birthday chippie as you can see below.

 I spritzed it with its zingy turquoise colour and added a translucent gold on top for sparkle, Then used a Sakura pen to line each letter too.

 If you look closely on the right hand side you can just see the triangle shapes in the stackum.

Thank you to every one who has been enjoying my post for May and I would like to wish all the girls taking part in the blog hop good luck and sorry I couldn't attempt it this time, I am going in to hospital Friday for a small operation but girls I will be thinking of you all. good Luck .

All for now

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
