My son's birthday invitations!

well I have just managed to squeeze in some crafting today and here is the result!  My son's birthday invitations.  I hope you like them!!


These gorgeous papers are freebies from Bearly mine and I thought they were just perfect for the theme as they have an oriental style to them.

Inside view

The image is a free colouring picture from the internet of Po from Kung Fu Panda as my son is a big fan at the moment, I have just shown him the invites and he is thrilled with them which is always a plus as a 7 nearly 8 year old can be fairly brutal with their honesty!!  I have coloured this image with pro markers

Commissioned wall canvas 2!

Here is my second commissioned wall canvas, I hope you like it!

I have covered the canvas in several shades of purple acrylic paint and then gone around the edges with a black stazon ink pad

This fabulous image from Saturated canary, called 'Gothica' Has been printed A4 size and then coloured with pro markers, cut out and added to the  canvas using silicon glue

The name has been created using a sizzix die alphabet and then I have added white dots with my Gelly roll pen to make it stand out!

I have created this section using a piece of do craft paper and a tonic studios border punch then added gems from my stash.  I have put 2 small mirror pieces at the top and bottom and used black gem swirls to accentuate them.  I have then created a floral center piece using Wild orchid flowers that I have also attached using silicon glue

I will be entering this canvas into the following challenges
