Hello I am back!

This little board (I love cats!) was made using a canvas and digital  images and stamping, then pasted over a  cardboard box, one of the corners had a soda can embellishment .

Hello you out there!
A nice sunny day! Wow
Like always battling with this blog...still I don't learn jajajajajaja...
I just was learning how to then they change again, and then again...jajajajajaj
But I will keep trying to learn how to do a better blog!
Yes I have been busy do you want to see more stuff?
I will show you some stuff I have been doing.
Enjoy, smile have fun and be happy!
The weekend begins today!

This little journal was made from envelopes that come through my post! Also I use to cover most of it with papers that came in a magazine, the tags were made from packaging , some embellishment from plastic.  Ye I know I am not so a girly theme artist, but I do also, my daughter inspire me she is a girly girl!
The other below also was inspired by my daughter, also made from those big envelopes that come through my door and in this one I used some commercial brochure that came in those envelopes.  In this one the tags are made from packaging materials.  In this one I use a craft magazine pages to decorate it.
I had have those magazines sitting around for sometime, this is a good way to use them! And by the way, I am not good taking little movies  either jajajajajajaj!

Also I did another project I use an snicker box to make a little suitcase, instead of using a box to put the gift I arrange this box for that purpose.  I re use and transform the box and didn't have to buy a gift box for my friend; she really enjoy it and was very excited about it! Hope you enjoy it! I enjoy doing it Ja!

The box inside, the tags were made also with cardboards and have the B'day message

Here is how it looks close, the handle was made using a cottage cheese plastic cup, so is firm. I cover it with paper.

The necklace use here I bought in a charity shop and re use it, the brown flowers were  made  from use coffee filters.

And here is with the present inside, the black tissue paper was from an old gift!

It was so much fun doing it and re using stuff around the house and my friend was excited! Weeeee!

Here is a bag that I re use it for a present gift.

The flowers (2 of them) made with used coffee filters (yes I know I drink a lot of coffee!) and the other from a plastic packaging . The background band is the backside of an already printed paper, I re printed it again and use it.

Here are the tags used in the Butterfly Journal. The big one are made from packaging and then stamp, for this kind of technique I usually look for glossy type of packaging. The other were from the magazine paper.

The flower was made by stamping and embossing a leftover  paper then cut it , the middle  is also a leftover glazed it for a better effect.

This one is from pieces of leftover papers that I use for covering the journal.

The long tag is a bookmark I cover it with a nice paper and stamp.

Here are some tags from the Fairy Journal.  All of them were made with cardboard from something left..

Hope you enjoy this!

\\\\\well before finishing let me show you what I did with does plastic vase one from a washing powder and the other a yoghurt? Dont remember ...jajajajajaja

This one was stamped completely in a whole page then glued. 

This one is collage type, cutting and pasting leftovers papers.

This is a map that I found and love it! The frame was made using a scrapbook pages then I stamp over it!

Soon I will be posting some other project.

Please visit my other blogs to see different things!

Ciao bellos!

Back again!

Sorry again! Always something happening.

But I had been learning so much new stuff!

Here is some new techniques I am working in!

Here I am using resin to create some pendants; using old watches, and old watches pieces. 

A charm using one of the pendant and very old dice and key.

Beer cap for a ring! And the round medallion will be used in earrings.

A suitcase made from used f/c paper and leftovers. This is an up-cycle!

Many Things!

Hello everyone

It had been a long time...but I am better and doing good!

I had been practising different technique of recycling stuff, so that you can also do it!

Also I have a new link in the page is call Stamping wow, I love stamping because it give me the freedom to up cycle and recycle more. In here I will explain the stamping technique I use whether I am doing a recycle up cycled project or not, also I made a little booklet about stamping so the new  to stamp can have an idea on how to, what inks to use and so on.

I will be making some small tutorials videos of the who to...I think it is easier this way and I do not have to lose time typing! Jajajajaj...But still have to figure who..jajajajaj typically me! 

I had been doing journals 

I will soon be posting them in videos also...OMG!
So you can see I have been busy!
Enjoy!
Laugh against all odds!

This is a mixed media, I draw the couture mannequin, die cut the wings (cans) use paper form an  damage book and stamp. This is for a Photo journal.

Here I use stamp leftovers of tissue paper, painted the base with acrylics and stamp the poppies. You can used this as background or as theme for a card, I am using it for a example journal.

Similar to above, I am using it for a Photo Journal. Later I will paste some photos and mixed it with the background.

All this flowers were made from used (yes used!) coffee filters, some are stamped other painted. The middle of the first flower was made with a used towel paper also...

This ones some are made from cans, the plastic is from plastic's  packaging (#1) sing a heat gun (be careful when using a heat gun please!) and the 2 silver ones were made from a foil that covers some kind of cottage cheese, (It is clean also) .

Another mix media, using stamp tissue paper from a show box, the background is made from used towel papers ( the ones I used for crafting).  This page is for an example journal I am making for my students visualize.

Here is an example of the coffee filter flowers and the towel paper background.  Also  the small background is from a packaging and the bigger one is the back part of another.

This ATC, were hand-painted and cut and paste in the back of some cardboard from some packaging, the base is stamp and painted. 

Here using leftover papers, plastic(wings, butterfly) and stamping.

Here the background were printed form this blog (the free downloads page bg) In both ATC, the I mixed them with the stamp some leftover papers.

This are some pendants and a button made from egg shell.

Toilet Paper Mini Album!

And the cover...jajaja I do not know why it came last???

This mini album is made from the roll of the toilet paper in other post I will tell you how to!

The feathers I used were leftover from a big Masquerade party that me and my brother did the decoration for, last year.

This flower was made with use coffee filter paper and the centre from used parts of a clock! The lace is the same as the cover, it was pain with ink.

This is the back cover!
Almost all the album (exception  the photos, was made from scratches )

Some work done! ATC, Frame & Suitcase!

Hello everyone, just a little busy ...so much stuff happening in the world right now; and we are just beginning the year wao!

Well I have been doing another things and every time I have leftover I do ATC!

The background of this one are from my free downloads they work good... don't you think so jajajaj

Teh ladies face was stamp over the music sheet background so it give texture to the face, the girl of the second one was already on the background so I embellished it with some leftover

This also are from my background free downloads and again embellished them with some leftover

The first one I made it from a watch band that broke I cut it in squares  and glue it to a packaging, the second one is stamp in the back of a packaging and painted with markers

This one is a Valentine card I made, is part recycled and part not; the ribbon came from a gift box I had, the hearts were stamp over brochures papers then cut-out; the metal magic embellishment I used brochure paper , I think the new part was the base card, the stamp lady and gentleman in the bikes even the flowers were left over coordination papers, just emboss them an voila!

The first one I use cardboard and the wings were from a little pieces of vellum I found (I still don't know were did it came from) jajajajaj.  The face were stamp over different types of packaging then emboss them only to see who it worked but still nice!

This one the back is a cardboard and the front was a use f/c paper that I re print with this theme, then cut out and use a little gloss to make it firmer The same with the one below

The picture was on a glass frame does cheap one, I use one of my Valentines box Chocolate (Yummy) cut it in form  of a frame and use a very old masking tape (so old I had to glue to the cardboard jajajaaja) Then I use heavy emboss powder with some mica powders to give it like a metallic appearance.  When the frame was finish I glue it to the glass and finito!
People who had seen it though it was metal (jajajajaja)

Now this is a little suitcase ( I saw one in a craft magazine) and tried to make it..Hope you like itI use, used f/c paper, because I need some sturdiness I cut if first, score it and then I used a very fine embossing powder something like print magic or melt-dust so when it was fold it didn't break; Also before this I stamped it and distress it otherwise it would be a little more difficult with the emboss powder on.

You need 2 boxes (In this case I made them myself) but any box that close together will do it.  The tricky part is glue them together, the outside and the inside also. In the outside the only thing holding them together is the 2 straps, so for this it must be a heavier paper, more stronger than a ph/c paper but not as hard as a card (it would break), or like I did, I have a piece of paper leftover a project, i glue them together then I cut the 2 strips. It must be glued all around the boxes and a little longer so it looks like a strap.  This must be do last.  The holder of the bag is a card I have to crumple it with the hands so the fibres break  then I distress it.  I use a long strip, bigger that the box so I have space to curled up for the srtap holders and the holder itself, put in on the botton box and level it, you glue the straights parts and that is all!

Everything is made from leftover or use photocopy paper.  This kind of project is great you can use the smallest things around you. The little notebook was made from the leftover card of the Valentines days then open holes and put some cut paper and in those you can write a sentiment for the person it is going to be.

This is who I manage to paste both part of the box together,  first you open the 2 little boxes then you put some masking tape to hold them together but leave it loose and open it and close it to see if its can close and open okey; then you cut another p/c used paper stamp it, painted what ever you like and emboss it again with very fine embossing powder, this piece of paper must cover from the top box to the bottom box  is the size is okey then you glue it to both boxes so it help them maintain together.  In the bottom box I scrump a piece of paper that came in some shoes I bought and then pass distress ink to give it texture . In the upper box I paste a little piece of tissue paper I stamp also in some leftover papers  and because it is small you can use anything you like.

I also use a horizontal paper I did it the same way the others, so you can embellish it more.

This little box would be great to use it as a little card and put a gift inside it can be some chocolates, some kind of jewellery or what ever you like.  Because this suitcase was made from 2 boxes glued it can be the size you want! Any inquire you can e mail me and I will help you in all!

Bye
