Blingy Daisy Ear-bobs

  Happy Wednesday everyone! leslierahye sharing a SUPER easy jewelry project using Piccolo Charms and 3D Enamel Gel and Bling! With the Daisy Teardrop Earrings, I applied Daffodi enamel and Burnt Umber enamel to the flowers and edge of the teardrop. The 3D Enamel acts as a glue when applying individual bling pieces from the Bling on a Roll--cut apart with regular scissors.  Pieces of bling were also applied to the two largest flowers. A generous coat of Glossy Glastique was added to the teardrop charm and left to dry overnight. Jump rings were attached to the charm and French Loops make them simple hanging earrings to wear!

Blingy Steampunk!

  Happy Wednesday everyone! leslierahye here sharing a blinhgy steampunk card. I layered a background that was stamped and embossed with detail copper. The edges were distressed and embossed. Vintage black was also sprinkled in the bottom corner and embossed. 

The gears were embossed with detail black, detail copper and vintage black...the open gears were stamped with a speckle stamp while still molten. The solid gear was stamped with a detailed steam train stamp. Bling was added to the open gears by cutting apart the Bling on a Roll and gluing it down individually along the curve of the gear.

The final focal element is created by melting a pile of ultra thick black emboss powder and mixing in detail copper on a craft sheet. I stamped the steam train image into the molten powder. If you attempt this and do not like how it looks remember you can remelt it and start again! After the stamped emboss powder dries, use the scraper tool to gently lift it off the craft sheet.

A Midsummer Night's Dream

I am SO sorry this post is late! I hope you enjoy it!

When I first started rubber stamping Shakespeare was all the rage. A few movies had just come out and everyone was obsessed with William (honestly, I have never read a thing he’s written), but I did like the costume and pageantry of the time period.   When I saw this new Piccolo the first thing that came to my mind was “A Midsummer Night’s Dream”. So as to not disappoint my muse, this is the creation that was born.

Shows some bling

What I Used:
A 5x7 Canvas

Gesso

Embossing Fluid

Embossing Enamel in Starry Star and Siam Silver

A126, Flourish Accents

W015, Dream Word Accent 

Female Stamp from The Stampsmith

Distress Markers in Squeezed Lemonade, Mowed Lawn, Worn Lipstick and Tumbled Glass

Distress Paints in Seedless Preserves, Milled Lavender & Chipped Sapphire

Silhouette Machine (to make the letters)

Silver Paper (for the letters)

Crafters Pick Adhesive
Bling on a Roll - Silver

First, let me preface with I am not used to using canvas.  I prefer boards, but I have some canvas that needs to be used.  So after I made my first background, or, tried to make it, I realized I needed to gesso my canvas if I wanted a smoother background.  So after the gesso dried, I used Distress Paints to make a purple and blue summery night sky. 

Then, I swooshed my Embossing Fluid and embossed the swoosh with Starry Sky. 

I had stamped the Stampsmith stamp on glossy paper & colored her with the Distress Markers. I fussy cut her out and glued her to the canvas.  I then embossed the word accent and the flourishes with Siam Silver.  I used my Silhouette machine to cut out the words “A Midsummer Night’s”, I added some bling to the D and to each “i”.  I added the silver embellishment and I put it all together and created my Midsummer Night’s Dream.

I hope you enjoyed my tutorial. Thank you! Christi

Queen Bee Tag

  Happy Wednesday everyone! leslierahye here to share with you a steampunk tag that I created that could be added to a gift or scrapbook page or card! Piccolo powders come in a variety of "metals" which makes creating steampunk crafts super easy!

I stamped my tag with a chickenwire background stamp and embossed with MicroWhite. I then rubbed chalk ink over the cooled embossing and buffed with a dry cloth...the Micro White gives a resist appearance on the tag. Next I added a torn piece of patterned paper and added more distress inking. I heat embossed elements from the Steampunk Airship Accents set with Victorian Bronze. One of the scroll elements was placed at the top of my tag. Another of the same element was trimmed and used below the wooden bee that I also embossed with Victorian Bronze--the Enamel Powder Adhesive works great on all surfaces, including wood! Smaller bits from the Steampunk Airship Accents were layered with a rhinestone from the Bling on a Roll added to form a "crown".
Pieces from the Vintage Gears--including a negative gear--were embossed with Vintage Black, Real Rust and Vintage Copper and then layered on the tag and a strip of Bling on a Roll was added to the bottom of the card!
