Here with some tags and an ATC using some of the fabulously detailed Calico Craft Parts Transport Wood Shapes. You might want to grab a cup of coffee! There's a quartet of tags. And since I left the vehicles unaltered for the tags, I also created an ATC with a whole different look. Here's a quick taster - more of this one later in the post. A lovely old jalopy pick-up. In the large size, ...

Monday, 10 August 2015. It's The Little Things That Make Life Big: by Tracy Evans. I would firstly like to thank Louise and Helen for inviting me along to be a Guest Designer this month, I am absolutely thrilled. My first piece is an altered book (all of the links to the products are at the end of my post); I have to say the quality of these pieces is amazing and I had great fun altering this piece.

Tuesday, 28 April 2015. A box for my Craft parts: By Astrid. Nothing is more fun than playing with Craft parts, and trust me, you'll want loads of them! I decided to alter a book box to keep mine in. And had super fun altering them and giving them the rusty look. Even the backing to some of the smaller craft parts can be used as you can see from the heart shapes.This came from these little hearts. Here is a page in a mini book where I used them just as they come:. Here I am using the lovely Butterflies.

Saturday, 8 August 2015. Last of the summer leaves: book box by Zuzu. Well to be more accurate its the "Outside" of the book box. not all of it. I will do the inside later and put it up for my next post. I have not decided how I want the inside to look yet. Anyway, I decided to capture the full greenery of summer with a few touches of colour before it got to that point where we were all making lovely autumnal items. As luck would have it, we actually had a dry day today so I could get photos (Yay). Vario...

Calico Craft Parts: Cube Art Doll by Trish
http://calicocraftparts.blogspot.com/2015/08/cube-art-doll-by-trish.html
Thursday, 13 August 2015. Cube Art Doll by Trish. So another project, another cube! Yep, love these things! This one is a 2" with a square aperture. Now, normally I might use the apertures to showcase a little bit of ephemera or something, but this time it became a major part in how the whole thing was put together! I painted the cube, then added stamped text and dots using the 'stamp on tissue then glue on with Mod Podge' technique! I covered all the sides and the wings. Cubes can be found HERE. Last of...

Thursday, 6 August 2015. Talk To The Hand by Lesley. Another fab new product in the shop this week, in the shape of a cube! Love, love these.i think we all do here! I took one of the teeny ones with a round aperture, and made this. To be honest, i'm not to sure what it is! But i kinda like it! I started by painting all the sides of the cube with Decoart fluid acrylics. Once dry, i glued it altogether. They look like they should be there! I got carried away and gave it some bloodied finger nails! Steam Pi...
