I spinkle some water on the card

Watching Over

Hello and welcome,  Kay M here to share a panel with you today.   I've used the beautiful Angel from Peace On Earth to watch over and bless a town.  

A 6x6 (15cm x15cm) grey board was painted with BlackGeeSsoGood and then Sleeping Beauty metallic paint to make a night time sky.   FlitterGlu was sponged through the Starburst stencil in the top left corner and Sheffield Steel Megaflake applied.  

Black GeeSsoGood and Super Thick Slap-it-On were mixed together and applied  through the Whimsical Houses stencil onto orange card,  when dry the houses were cut out.  Unicorn Sparkles and Super Thick Slap-it-On were mixed together and  used to edge the house's roofs and applied through the Stars stencil onto the night sky.  The houses were then attached to the panel to make a townscape.

The Angel was stamped twice onto white card and painted with Luscious, one Angel was cut out completely and the other just the wings.  Both had a little of the remaining Unicorn Sparkles mixture spread over them before the extra wings were attached and added to the panel. 

The sentiment from Spirit of Christmas was stamped on a little painted card, embossed in white, cut out and edged with Unicorn Sparkles and adhered to the panel to finish the panel. 

I do hope your holiday preparations are going well and you are still able to get creative!

Take care,  Kay M 

Starburst

Cheremane here with you today. Seeing its November we are sharing Firework inspiration with you here at IndigoBlu this month. I've used a mix of Stencils,Stamps,Super Thick Slap It On,Luscious Powders and MegaFlakes to create my project for you today.

Take some Super Thick Slap It On and mix with three different colours of Luscious Powders I've used Blue,Silver and Purple.

 If you mix to much Super Thick Slap It On and Luscious Powders you can store the left over coloured
Super Thick Slap it on in an air tight container to use on another project.
Look at the yummy mica in the Luscious Powders.

 Using a Palette Knife spread the Super Thick Slap It On over the Starburst Stencil, random is better so don't worry about putting one colour on top of another as it adds to the effect.

Once the Super Thick Slap It On is dry you really will see the true Luscious Powder colour and the sparkle of the mica.

Mix some Rose Bronze Luscious Powder with some Clear Superfine Embossing Powder to make your very own embossing powder to match all your Luscious projects. I've made a little pot up of every colour ready to use when ever I need that extra special embossing powder for a project.

Using some Phat Foam and Flitterglu stamp the Sparkle & Glisten word from the stamp set and sprinkle over the Luscious embossing powder that you have made and heat with a heat tool, look at the extra glisten of the mica blinging through.

Finally using the Phat foam with Flitterglu on rub round the edge of the card and then add Sheffield Steel MegaFlakes this really finishes off a project and adds that little extra bling, now mat onto some Coal Black Stamping Card, water down a little bit of Black GeeSso Good and add some small splats with a fine brush, then add some 3d foam to the sentiment to make it stand proud in the middle of the Starburst.

Thanks so much for stopping by I hope you like it and your feeling inspired.

Remember, Remember the 5th November.....

Hi it's Elizabeth here sharing a colourful Bonfire Night project with you. Here in the UK we celebrate Bonfire Night on the 5th November every year, by getting together with friends and family, having a bonfire and setting off brightly coloured fireworks. All this is in celebration of a gent called Guy Fawkes who planned the failed Gunpowder Plot to blow up the Houses of Parliament back in 1605.

I started by stencilling Twisted Citrus and Salty Ocean Distress Ink through the Whimsical Houses Stencil before adding a layer of Super Thick Slap It On over the top. I wanted dimension and shine to the houses. I then cut them out to use individually.

On a piece of card cut to 5 3/4" square I used the Super Thick Slap It On through the fabulous Starburst Stencil Once that had dried I then stamped over the top with one of the flower heads from the Stylised Flower Stamp to create my exploding Firework. I added flowers around the edge of the card using Blue Hawaii StazOn Ink.

After giving the images a quick blast with the heat gun to make sure they were dry, I then blended over a mix of Twisted Citron and Salty Ocean Distress Inks. I love the way the Super Thick Slap It On acts as a resist, making the Starburst lines look like an exploding Firework.

I added a few coloured gems to the centre of my largest Firework, and arranged the three little houses, overlapping them slightly.

To finish off I added the piece on to a 6" square card blank.

I hope you enjoyed a safe and Happy Bonfire Night, see you soon.
