Weekend Workshops
Wow what a beautiful weekend we have had, I love the sunny weather, the birds singing, all the doors and windows open, it just feeds the spirit, just fab :-). As well as breathing in the sunny weather I was lucky enough to attend another 'Carol' from Krafty Pieces workshop it was hosted by Diane from Crafts and Candle Light. We altered a cheese box with gorgeous results and its circular so very apt for this weeks JFF challenge . I also made a tag for the JFF this week sees the start of a new months challenge and it is 'Circles' I used a tag and inked with DIs tumbled glass, bundled sage and worn lipstick and edged in walnut stain. I have been yearning to use the stamp (Tick Tock flowers) for some time and thought it suited the circle theme quite nicely so masked and stamped the tag. I painted the cogs with antique gold acrylic paint and then crackle accents. I also made a grunge flower but out of paper using the same stamps embellished a couple of the stamped cog centers with metal leaf flake to lift it and with a few beads. All very coggy really LOL. Thanks for looking and enjoy the week even if it does cool down.

Fabulous piece, would never have guessed it was a cheese box.
Oh goody another steampunk type piece (tag). Love that background you have used - Tick Tock Flowers - not heard of it (who makes it please)?
I do like how you have coloured the whole tag in and used the various elements as embellishments - gives it a lovely 3 dimensional feel.
The cheesebox is lovely too.
Thanks for joining us at JFF this week. Hugs, Neet x
