La La Land Crafts NEW RELEASE SHOWCASE

Hold on to your Hats!!

Its time for a NEW Release at La La Land Crafts!!

Ooooo So much fun, as you may have already seen, team Monday did some gorgeous work with the newbies earlier in the week, but now it's team Friday's turn... 

So I was lucky to get to play with - Country Side Shadow Box, and Marci with Umbrella.... I had so much fun building my shadow box, they really are very easy to put together, you just need to have a think about how you want to decorate it first of all, and decorate the pieces before you glue them together!! My paper is Farm Girl from October Afternoon and I thought, perfect for my box! The Box also comes with a few decorating bits, a fence, a tree, some banners, Milk Can, and a Wagon Wheel - SO COOL!! 


Now can you see some of the new dies I have used????? there's Cats Tails and Stitched Tabs which I have made into a banner, there is 3 different types that you get, so I have used 2 types... the other is behind my ticket on the side, where I have used 2 to make a background label!  I painted my Milk Can with Viva Metals Colour in Silver, so its shiny like a real milk can!  

Below is a side view, so you can see how deep the box is, you can fit a lot of fat stuff in like flowers! 


So what's next?

SAIL BOAT LUKA, he looks so cute, playing with his wee boat!!  I've made it to look like he is at the beach, by giving him a little sand and blue sky in the background. I have also used some new dies on this one as well as some old... the new ones are: Stitched Scallop Boarder, Stitched Tabs. I did want to put on the cats tails as well, but there just wasn't room!!  The old ones are the Cloud and the Wave Boarder!


So there you go!! Pretty Cool stuff huh? You can get your fix on the new goodies at either La La Land Crafts online store, or if your in Australia from your local Stockist for the Dies, and 3D Altered Items....

Kraft, White and Pink

Hi There Everyone!!

Well turns out that I forgot to do my post on my blog for Inspirational Friday at La La Land Crafts.... Dear o Dear.... 

Anyway, the theme was Kraft, White and 1 other colour, I chose pink!  I've coloured my Ballerina Marci with Prisma Coloured Pencils on Kraft Card.... I'm rather happy on how it turned out for someone who rarely uses her pencils!!  So here she is I hope you love her as much as me!!


 Medium: Prisma Coloured Pencils
Terre De Sienne, Pink, Magenta, Blanc, Beige, Rose Farde, 
Beige Mastic, French Grey 70%, Burnt Ombre Fonce, Peach

Before I go I wanted to show you my Distress Marker Holder Stand, which of course is by La La Land Crafts!!  I love how it turned out!!  It really wasn't that hard to put together, but I should have painted it all before I decided to glue it together.... but then painting it was a little bit of an after thought... Anyway I painted it with Viva Metal Colours in Gold.  I left the corners and the embellishments plain... I really love how pretty it looks sitting on my shelf at my desk!!  


So that's it from me for now!!
