Altered Tim Holtz Mini Distress Ink Blending Tools using APOXIE SCULPT CLAY and Tim Holtz Idea-ology products and Distress Paints

SO MUCH FUN! I used Apoxie Sculpt (rock hard when dry) and Tim Holtz' Idea-ology items and Distress Paints to transform 11 Blending Tools into something fun to sit on my desk... I'M LOVING the result. I did use a few other acrylic paints (I needed a few other colors) and Liquitex Professional Varnishes to seal the work. Hope you like them as much as I do. Please "LIKE" the video and SUBSCRIBE, makes my old lady heart happy to see someone else likes my little creations :D

Here's a few photos in case you don't have the time to look at the video.

HONEY BEE JUNK JOURNAL created using custom digitals and products from Tim Holtz, Crafter's Companion and Anna Griffin

LOVE BEES!!! I so enjoyed creating this honeybee inspired Junk Journal, is there anything more cute than a close up of a bumblebee bum ? Please like and subscribe to the YouTube video. Like many crafters,I keep promising myself I'm going to start filming more of my crafts and doing a few more tutorials. I'm inspired to create, just not to pull out the camera, but I've found this blog, FB, YT, and Instagram make a great personal "journal" of things I've made. That way when I give them away or sell them I can still see my past creations. It lets me see how far I've come in my artsy, craftsy journey. Plus, those LIKES and SUBSCRIBE and comments make us crafters feel all mushy and happy inside. It's always nice to feel like somebody saw what we made and hopefully received a touch of inspiration to create their own. Thanks for stopping by the blog and watching the video. I will attach some of the digital images I put together to use in the journal so you can print them out however you wish. I'm not savvy with digital creation so I just saved them as JPG files (like a picture). Maybe someday this "old dog" will learn "New tricks" and I'll study on how to create digital image kit. Again, thanks for visiting my blog.

CREEPY PILL BOXES using Apoxie Sculpt (altered tiny tins)

Used Apoxie Sculpt, resin, resin teeth and doll eyes, paints and waxes Oh what fun!! these are prototypes for Halloween sale items, so they need a few changes but thought I'd share the process so far

There's just something so wrong (and wonderful) about "hair" in resin ... this little mole gives me the HeebieJeebies when I touch it :D

FAUX ECODYE LEAF PRINT - 5 MINUTE TUTORIAL - GREAT FOR JUNK JOURNAL PAGES using Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Ink Sprays

I'm much too impatient to boil water and papers and stack them up and take them apart, so I made a faux version. A few crafters asked me to make a tutorial video so here it is. You could make it any colour you wanted, using any leaves you desire.

Here's the YouTube Video
