You color my word card
Fancy heat embossed card made with one of my favorite techniques of making rainbow of three colors only.
The background stamp and embossing powders are from WOW! Embossing Powders and the sentiment stamp is from VLVS. I used permanent markers in red, blue and yellow and all other colors are just " done" by mixing those three primary colors. The circles are the negatives from die cuts and I made the whole " home nade" stencil to make the pattern with one cardstock sheet and a few cuts made one ofter another.
I enter this to a couple of web challenges- so far I have time for this , but not for a long time since I got some very happy news about 3 more crafty adventures that I can't yet share.
Simon Says- Anything goes
Addicted to stamps- make your mark (use markers)
Embossing- for AAA Cards
Inkspirational- Geometric (circles)
Casology- distress (as I understand it, so the colors are totally distressed and mixed )

Lucky Makin's Clay necklace
Hello my dear crafty friends!
Irit us here again with my Makin's Clay Lucky necklace.I think that anyone needs a bit of luck. And games, any kind of them, are the most common way to get some luck together with a lot of fun. So I made a fancy 3 colors only necklace with Makin's Clay using all possible techniques.
Supply list:
White
Black
Red
Tools:
Glaze- DecoArts
Acrylic paint- DecoArts
Jewelry parts and beads- craft shop
Let me show you all of them techniques used today:
1. Use Ultimate Clay Extruder with large square disk #28 (you can't see the disk on this photos, sorry about it) with white and black Makin's Clay to make this " so called" chess game board.
I used a piece of thin red clay that was rolled to #6 setting on Makin’s Professional® Ultimate Clay Machine® and dry to make the base for all those extruded squares.
2.Make a free hand game cube from black clay and making the dots with Makin’s Clay® Professional Clay Tools® top as shown.
3.Stamp with black permanent ink over wet clay rolled with Makin's Clay roller.I used Rubber Dance stamp to make this playing card Queen image.
4. Stamp with bare stamp into the wet white clay. I used Rubber Dance stamps again and in my final project the Bingo card was not used after all. But I did used the domino piece as you can see. All piece were hand cut with a cutter from Makin’s Clay® Professional Clay Tools® set.
5. Use Makin's Clay small cutters of playing cards signs from Mini Geo cutters set to make the small pieces for the necklace. I didn't find the diamond shape(mess is my second name) in my cutters box, so I made it totally free hand.
7. Make a mold using a real chess game piece and cast the chess game piece with black clay.
8.Cover all dry pieces with glaze. The Domino piece dots were painted with black acrylic paint.
The cube dots were all painted with white acrylic inside the dots.
And this is my finished pieces added to a fancy multi strings necklace.
I added the word Lucky over the chess board with stickers and then covered the stickers with glaze again.
So are you Lucky? I hope you are and if not- make this necklace for some extra luck!

Beyond imagination with Rubber Dance
Hello my dear crafty friends and welcome to my small altered project made for Rubber Dance and Tando Creative.
This is a kind of " use your leftovers project". The pieces that I added to make this " castle" are the insides of Tando arches and mini book and I actually added 5 of them one over another to make the shape.
Each piece was covered with one single Tando stencil on the top: this fancy Moroccan roof is a small stencilled piece made with DecoArts texture paste and then heat embossed with gold powder.
Each piece was stamped with Rubber Dance background stamp-Flourishes- using clear embossing ink and the same gold embossing powder. Then each one of 5 pieces was painted with DecoArts paint and as the stamped images act as resist we still can see the gorgeous embossed background.
I stamped the sentiment with Rubber Dance stamp from ATC Backgrounds 2 (I didn't stamp the name of the author that is on this stamp, but saying only). Again this was stamped with the same gold heat embossing and painted with the very same dark blue paint.
As my finishing touches I added this clock on the top and two real vintage gold buttons.
You can now imagine that this is your home. Or that you live like 500 years ago in this castle. Just IMAGINE!

ETI Blog hop
Hello my dear crafty friends and welcome to our ETI BLOG HOP!
Today the whole line of fantastic designers are going to show you all possible projects made with resin arts products.
And please comment in each an every blog as you can win this delicious prize too:
I hope you came from Heather's blog. If not- go to the first stop and begin the hop there!
So here is my project: I made the fancy recycled jewelry/specks organiser using a few of ETI products.
I didn't make a whole tutorial, but I took some photos for some steps, just yo make it easy to see the process.
So this is a finished project.
Now I painted the " candled" tray with ESF Chalk It Up Rock Candy paint and then distressed it with sand paper. (This step is not shown here, but on the finished project only)
To make the sides pretty I used ESF Texture paste with Tim Holtz stencil and made it over all 4 sides. You need to do 2 sides and then to let them dry and to make two more sides if you don't want to mess the process.
Now it was a time for my ETI play.I didn't take any photos as those steps are easy and each and every of my previous tutorials made for ETI has the very same steps.
So first I casted Plaid molds with Easy Cast resin (mixing for 2 minutes and then for one more minute in a new glass). I made 4 pieces to use inside my tray with this resin mix and some brown glitter. One single " clear" piece was made with just a bit of light blue glitter. After almost 24 hours my pieces were hard and ready to use.
First I made a few die cuts using gold cardstock and MFT 4 small doilies dies. The die cuts were arranged inside the box . I added my 4 resin glitters pieces over the die cuts.
Now I mixed about 4 Oz of Easy Cast resin and just added it over the box spots. Some small beads were added randomly for the interest. I also glued the sequin ribbon over the tray with the very same ETI Easy Cast resin leftovers from the big glass. 24 hours later my fancy wooden tray was ready to use.
Here you can see the resin pieces and clear resin over those pieces.
And this is another look on my finished project.
And now to your next stop on the hop:

Celebrate and make a wish card: Oriental style
Irit is here again with my new Oriental style card and this time it's a Birthday card full of bright colors and gold using Die Versions Oriental dies collection.
I used light blue card as my base and added a real Japanese paper over it. As this paper has gold I decided to stay with gold and made the die cut of Whispers - Ginger Jar die in gold. I kept the negative and used it under the die cut over the card.
The vase was layered over double sided glue sheet and covered with perfect blue glitter.
I added a few pieces of gold washi tapes and some SRM stickers as stitches and sentiments. The paper has a bit of red over it. So I added a couple of red rhinestones and red stitches to make this the complimentary color for my card.

Love forever Mixed Media card
Still doing things " just because". Just because I have time; just because I have the right products; just because I have mojo...
This one is a Mixed Media card made for ALTENEW February challenge.
I made the background panel with a lot of Altenew stamps and then heat embossed the whole piece with clear powder to get this " glass" look. The chipboard window was also heat embossed with white powder and then misted with Tattered Angels golden mist.
The outer flowers from Altenew set are hand cut and the LOVE FOREVER sentiment is from Sizzix.
So this goes for Altenew challenge inspiration

Touch of Magic
It seams that I still have " me time" and " me time" means making things just for myself. Like for some web challenges. Like to play with products I forgot about as I had to work with " my" companies.
So this art piece is a bit about forgotten things and a bit about " let play from the heart".
This is an small, card size art board I made for a couple of web challenges.
The only new thing here is the stencil I just got and this delight is from Rebecca Baer. You will see much more of them from April, but for now it's just a sample.
I used very old stamps from the time I was a Guest designer for a few months on 100 Proof Press company. The mists are from Lindy Stamp Gang February challenge colors and lucky me just had 3 of them at hand ( Used Luscious lime mist,Hottie Patottie hot pink, and Delphinium Turquoise). Also used DecoArt Decoupage medium to glue the stamped over tissue images and their Texture paste. Some glitters were the only other medium used.
And the letters are from AC and Michaels.
And those are the challenges that I enter this pieces:

SSSS- Song words challenge- it's an inspiration from Olivia Newton John song " Magic"

Sending sunshine with Two Paper Divas
Hello my dear crafty friends and welcome to my last February post made for Two Paper Divas.
This was my first ever try to use solid and outline stamps all together. The Two Paper Divas Sunshine and Smiles new set was just perfect for this try.
I used dye inks and decided not to make it too perfect (kind of watercolor thing and not the perfect one on one stamping). I love the result, but sure need more learning curve.
I stamped the sentiment vertically on the side and added some SMR border and stitches stickers over the card to connect all parts of it. The golden splashes were made with Tattered Angels mist.

Adorable- with Sparkle - Layout
It was quite awhile since I scrapped. I know. So one scrapbooking layout for February, made for some web challenges only with just a little of my DT products.
This is my gorgeous grand daughter Neta a year and something ago. She is bigger now and still gorgeous.
I made it with DCWV cardstocks ; chipboards from all different companies; some Prima flowers; a bit of bling from FWAB company.
The backround was made with Tim Holtz stencils- 3 of them and the crackle paste from DecoArts.
Paints are all Ann Butler's Iridescents from Earth Safe Finishes.
The sub title is Visible Image stamped over the basic cardstock and heat embossed with embossing glitter.
I enter this piece to some web challenges:
