Afternoon everyone, what a beautiful day its been and because the sun was shining it warmed my room up so I had a play.
First up is this canvas, have a few of these stashed away, so bought some Stamperia rice paper and made this.
Just mod podged onto the canvas, tore up the paper slightly, did abit of stamping and done.
side on
Next up two cards that should match but obviously don't, well its the size but thats ok, I thought they would make nice note cards really.
The paper has been in the drawer awhile and I really can't think where I bought it. I tore it into two strips, edged in gold gilding wax, added some clocks, metal cogs and metal thingy-bobs to place a word or two, who knows.
Love the gilding wax its gorgeous, abit expensive but I have had this ages and it really goes on and on, I have used it on so many things, its amazing stuff.
Craft wise thats it for today, sorry its been so long, fingers crossed I will be back on the ball soon.

Carla is much, much better, she is back to normal. Has had to make lots of changes for her health, although stress was a major factor, I think she has things under control. She has us all so very worried, but thank heavens she is doing great. Bless you all for remembering her in messages, it has meant so much.
See you very soon with another crafty thing I am up to.

Wow you have been busy Janette and such a gorgeous canvas and cards too!! So glad to hear that Carla is doing well take care and lots of hugs Sue x
It sounds like you've had a wonderfully creative day! Your canvas project with Stamperia rice paper looks fantastic, and the torn edges and stamping add such a nice touch. Your note cards have a charming vintage vibe with the clocks and metal embellishments, and the gilding wax adds a lovely finish. I'm glad to hear Carla is feeling better.
That is a lovely canvas, and two great cards, you matter how hard you try it never works they are always different in same way, which is good, and they are lovely.
So glad Carla is getting ack to normal,
Wishing you a happy Easter,
I'm so glad to hear Carla is doing so well! I'm sure that, like the sun, makes things brighter and adds to your creativity flow and flowing it does seem to be. The canvas is absolutely gorgeous, so uplifting and just beautiful to look at. And the cards are beautiful, that wonderful gilded grunge that I love so much. So glad you are back my sweet friend!
Firstly I am so glad to read that Carla has improved greatly!! That is bound to be a relief for you all. Wow that canvas is stunning Janette. You are so talented!! The cards came up beautifully and agree about the wax, great stuff!! Mine is years old and still works perfectly.
