Thank you Remember When and CA scrappers!

Hi all!

I'm back in the hotel room after an amazing day at Remember When in Valencia CA teaching two classes with the most wonderful students! THANK YOU to each one of you for such a wonderful day, you all truly made my day!

This class students had the opportunity to be the very first class trying out my NEW tool line Comfort-Craft Tools and some of my Shabby Chic Resin Treasures (all to be released by Prima!), even before this planned released at CHA this upcoming week, "Hot of the press"!

Here you can see some of the students "in action" creating projects during the class;

Remember When had this great crop room where there was more then enough space for everyone.

And one sweet lady during the process of creating...

...and another sweet lady showing her work under process.

Two wonderful students showing their finished project from the class, all so beautifully done!

And some of the amazing students from the layout class all together with their finished projects.

This is just a "2-minutes" tag I made for the store, Remember When, after the classes. Thank you Remember When for such a wonderful day, and thank you for letting me have these classes at your great store!

*Hollywood By Night*

I truly miss all the students already, they were all just so wonderful and smiling, such an honor and pleasure to teach for - so nice to meet you all and I hope will see you all again soon!

Now I am off to bed, get some sleep before I have another plane to catch tomorrow morning to head off to Chicago and CHA, - hope to see you there! (Please check out earlier post for my make and takes at Prima here!)

Goodnight from California!

Hugs and smiles :O)

A layout with BRAND NEW Shabby Chic Metal Treasures!

Hi all!

By the time you are reading this I am on the plane on my way to USA to teach classes and to attend CHA, before heading to Canada for some days too. And I am soooo excited, can hardly wait to get there!

In the meantime I wish to share a layout I recently made with some of my new Shabby Chic treasures, resin and metals, on. "Welcome Love" is a layout with two photos of my daughter from when she was 12 days old.

And some close-ups;

I used Shabby Chic Metal bird cages in different sizes mixed with different Prima rub-on bird cages behind each other to create a impression of 3D.

And here I used a sparrow resin from Small Birds #890773 and a Stair Ornament #890759.

I love how easy it is to add personal touches to the resins. Here I used our BRAND NEW Chalk Fluid Edgers "Rusty Bucket" to add brown touches to the stair ornament corner.

These are the sets I used on this work;

Shabby Chic Resin Treasures

Shabby Chic Metal Treasures

And one more thing...

Many of you have asked, and I know many of you REALLY wished the Prima brick wall stamp I often use on my works, including on this one. Some of you have also emailed and asked for the iron fence stamp I also often use. Well, I hear you, and I always forward your wishes to Prima. And guess what? They did hear us too! So now, finally, the iron fence stamp and brick wall stamp is available again at Prima! Ready for pre-orders already, so please let your stores know so you can get them! ;O)

Here they are;

Some of my upcoming classes will have one of these included in the kits! ;O)

Thank you for dropping in, and I wish you all a wonderful weekend!

Hugs and smiles,

Sneak peeks of my very first product release with Prima!

Hi all dear blog visitors!
Hope you're all having just as good day as I have! Here it is sunny and nice today, and I am superduper happy and excited to finally be able to share some sneaks of one of my very first product release which will be released by Prima this CHA!

Please let me introduce...
Shabby Chic Resin Treasures, Backyard collection!

This collection with white and creamy brown Shabby Chic Resin Treasures "Backyard" will consist of 8 different sets of resins, and total 21 pieces! Todays peek from this collection is;

Garden Bench and Garden Bridge from the Garden Fittings set #890780 

3 sparrows from the  Small Birds set #890773

All resins from my collections plus tons of BRAND NEW Prima products available at Prima for retaile orders NOW! Please go to www.primamarketinginc.com for orders! (Please note; you need a account to be able to order, only available for retailers/wholesalers)

And here's a work I made with some of these new designs, a altered alarm clock;

 

I just removed the glass, moved the clock face a bit backwards for better room in front to embellish. On the clock hands I added some BRAN NEW tiny Prima alphas which is one of my wishes and ideas to Prima and will also be released this CHA! (More info to come). Then I embellished with one of my small sparrow resins and the garden resin bridge, plus some clock gears and lots of Prima flowers. 

The alarm clock was ordinary golden colored, so I decided to emboss it with Tea Dye colored embossing powder, then added layers of crackle paint randomly on, before use my upcoming Chalk Edgers on the rusty spots in colors Dark Rust and Rusty Bucket for more natural rusty look.

Here are some close-ups;

Showing more of the details inside of the clock from different side views...

Here you can see a close-up of the Garden Bridge where I have add touches of Chalk Fluid "Rusty Bucket" from my upcoming fast drying Chalk Edgers! Very easy to do and adds a personal and natural touch to your embellish.

And one of the sparrows sitting on one of the clock arms, here natural colored as in packaging.

Thank you all of you for dropping in, and I hope you enjoyed the sneak peek for today! And please check back soon for more upcoming sneak peeks! ;O)

Hugs to you all!
