Good Morning Blogosphere!
Guess what?! I’m up on the Faber-Castell Design Memory Craft Blog with a photo tutorial on how to make a tag using Graphic 45!
A TAG???! I know, I know- I never make tags! But, I had a blast making this one! Now, I’m ready to get out the Halloween decorations 😉
I hope you’ll go give that post some love!

Hello Blogosphere! Happy Monday!
Sorry about all the posts today, but I have SO much awesomeness to share with you today!
Today, the Faber-Castell® Design Memory Craft® Design Team has teamed up with the folks from Composi Mold! This was my first time creating a mold of ANY kind!
I used my last flower embellishment from Prima (below, green) to create my mold & then used Whipped Spackle in the mold to create my own replicas! Here are some steps to create your own Mini Banner using the NEW Mixed Media with Gelatos® Kit!
Photo Tutorial:
1. Mix Glaze with Gelatos®, paint over Whipped Spackle flowers, allow to dry. Adhere flower to finished project with Gel Medium. The green flower was used to create the mold!
2. Use remaining Glaze/Gelatos® mixture to cover the Acetate. Allow to Dry & then add Glass Bead Gel through a stencil. Allow to dry (my pictures show the product partially dry-the glass bead gel dries clear).
3. Prime the grey board with Gesso, dry, and then color with Gelatos blended with a wet brush. Stamp background with Stamper’s Big Brush Pens & then adhere torn tissue paper with Gel Medium. Allow to dry.
4. The wood board is SO much fun! Simply add remaining Whipped Spackle through a stencil & allow to dry!
So what do you think?! Does that look like something you’d like to try!!!? Once I figured out how to make my embellishments with the Composi Mold, it was FUN! I won’t mention how many times I messed up……I lost count!
Happy Monday,
Hello Blogosphere!
How was everyone’s 4th of July weekends? I spent last week driving 18 hours to El Paso for my brother’s Welcome Home Ceremony! He just returned from a 9-month deployment, so I was eager to see him and guess what?! He even came home a wee bit earlier than expected! SCORE! Here’s a picture of me (red, left) with my mom & brother:

Needless to say, the 4th of July was a BIG deal around these parts 😉 After a grueling 18-hour or more trip back home, I helped set-up for our neighborhood BBQ and it was a BLAST!
