My good friend Joann @ Jo's Scrap Shack and I are challenging each other to get more creative this year.
Jo set the first challenge a card using tan/white/green/brown.
This is my creation.
The background is Unity Stamp Company's "Tea Time" pattern. The image is from Leave Memories "Beautiful Women" set and the greeting is by Grace Taylor
Keep tuned for our next challenge an inspirational card using the wax paper technique.

Crayon Art
Posted by Kellie 0:) at 1:13 PM Labels: Crayon Art
My nephew Isaac has been visiting for a few days, as it is school holidays here in Australia. I had wanted to try out melting crayons on a canvas so I thought this would be a great project for the both of us.
First we painted the canvases with white acrylic paint. After this had dried we laid out the crayons in the order we wanted.
We glued them to the top of the canvas with hot glue and then using a hair dryer we melted the crayons a little at a time. I had tried my craft heat gun but it was so effective the crayons melted faster than we wanted. Some crayons decided that they were not going to melt at all. Trying to heat them only further melted those around it.
Isaac was very happy with his masterpiece.
I was happy with mine too. Though I think if I was to do it again I'd try leaving the wrappers on and seeing how that turned out. It will now hang on my wall with pride.

Next using a craft knife I sliced down each crayons side to allow us to take the paper wrapper from each crayon.

I'm in Love with Unity Stamp Company
Posted by Kellie 0:) at 5:17 PM Labels: Unity Stamp Company
In my travels through blogs hops of late I have come across a stamp company that is new to me and I have fallen in love. The Unity Stamp Company has hundreds of beautiful stamps and weekly and monthly stamp or kit clubs.
At the moment the owner is having a birthday sale - 40% off
I took advantage and some of the wonderful stamps are on the way. I can't wait to share some creations using them soon.
