Home is Where The Ocean Is

Hello Everyone,

I've been dying to share my MDF Steering Wheel with you as I love how this turned out.

I coated the wheel in white Dutch Doobadoo gesso first and then added Dutch Doobadoo black gesso.I then gave it a light sanding so that some of the white came through.  I then added crackle paste and after it had tried applied a very light brushing of white gesso again.  This gave my ship's wheel an aged effect.  Love it :)

I wanted to keep this as much black, white and cream as possible as it's going into my downstairs toilet so it will match perfectly.

I used elements from the Dutch Doobadoo Paper Art Nautical.  I also used the anchor die cut and added pearls and a nautical button from Live and Love crafts.

I used both the All At Sea Sentiment Set and the Image stamps for the centre.  These were stamped onto paper from the All At Sea Paper pad.

The nautical buttom fitted perfectly into the Buoy diecut, some cheesecloth, pearls and shells to finish it off.

I've really enjoyed playing with the sea collection and I hope you like it too :)

 Hugs Tracy x

Wedding

Hello everyone, Vicky here today with a Wedding Card using the gorgeous dies & papers from Noor Design.

All links at the bottom to items used on this card.

I have used the yummy 'Pretty Floral Paper Pad', machine stitched all around the edges, including the heart ;-)

On the 'Just Married Wedding' text die I cut the bottom out & then dry embossed it with the Dutch Dubadoo 'Mask Art Flowers' stencil...........yes these can be used for embossing as well, which brings a whole new dimension to these............I'm even gonna buy more now ;-)

On the 'Wedding' text bit I heat embossed it with Aged Rose Fran-Tage as it matched the papers beautifully. I lurve it that I've used 2 embossing effects on the one die & it still remain soft looking.

Behind it I placed a 'Vintage Flourishes Swirl' die, again heat embossed with the same fran-tage.

On the heart I heat embossed the paper with the 'There Are No Little Dreams' stamp in white embossing powder, using the pattern part of the stamp. I then cut it out using a heart shaped die & matted it onto the scalloped heart shape.

In the bottom right corner I used a Corner die, the 'Fleur De Lys' die.

Of course with a wedding card I added lots of flowers. I also used my favourite Noor Design die the 'Vintage Border Embossing Swirl Leaf' die, I also gave this the fran-tage treatment.

I added 3 different Noor Design leaf dies amongst these flowers.

I decorated the inside to compliment the front as always. The 'Wedding' sign I placed on foam pads to give it a 3D effect.

Hope you like my wedding card today.

May your joys be as deep . . .

 Happy Wednesday, 

Fleur here with a couple of projects to share with you today.

This week I've made a couple of little bits for "the powder" room.

I found a photo from a few years back at Heacham beach

 and even add a couple of shells from the same beach too.

Whoops ~ I've just realised it looks like that pesky seagull has pooped on Darren's elbow! LOL 

I've tucked the lighthouse die behind a spray of flowers.

The chain is from the nautical art paper sheet,

I have used aged silver frantage to give a metallic feel.

I made the cute little hanger to match, I love the bubbles from the mask.

The propeller is also from the nautical art sheet & again received the heat silver treatment.

 The stamp sheet is full of gorgeous sentiments.

Thank you taking a look today.

BIG HUGZ

You keep me anchored

Morning all.  I am loving seeing just what our clever DT has done with the Dutch Doobadoo Fish Bowl stencil, so I thought I would share mine.

 

 

I used the leaf shape from the stencil, love how it works with the flowers and still keeps the sea theme.  I used the new Dutch Doobadoo Wavy Mask to create the bubbles.  LOVE how they look peeking out behind the flowers

 

 

I’ve had such fun with this month’s release – it pushed my boundaries and kept me away from pink!

 

 

Until next time
