Makings of a kit

Using Inspiration from Michelle Ward, my Class kits came together...

I have an Altered Domino Class on Saturday at the Crafty Scrapper, there are still seats available if you are not busy...

To make my kits, I used some card stock ( that I have had tons of ) For the base...Dug around in the shop and found some spray paints (which the colors were not what I had in mind, but I wanted to use what was on hand)...Stencils...and opened the doors and started to spray away...

When it was all said and done, I had put about 5 layers of paint on the card stock..some of it was just speckles, but you know, sometimes those little details make the biggest pop..

Here are the kits all packed up and ready for class..I hope they like them~

Hope to see you there!

Happy Anniversary to my hub...today is 27 years for us..ILY~

See you on Monday!

Hot solder

Been busy here at the Shop Shack..the wind has been blowing up something, and I didn't want to get outside!

Now, look closely at these charms that are about to be soldered:

Did you see the one with the bird?

Here's the other side of it...this one is for me!! I used a gift card for the back image (bird and swirls) and the front is a Grunge board letter and the background is a paint chip. I then used spray paint and a piece of paper lace to get the effect! Do you like it?? Michelle Ward style!

This one, makes me wish I was more girly girl...but, I'm not..I like my HD stuff and will always make something with it..

I've also listed 2 charms on Etsy in my Wrighthandy shop..

Don't forget to Scroll DOWN to my Paper Cowgirl post and sign up for the giveaway..You must leave a comment on THAT post to be in the drawing..Check out the other Cowgirls on the blog trail too, they are listed in that post also..

Michelle Ward moment

We are about to embark on a MC trip for a long weekend...so down at the local WM I picked up a couple more white long sleeve T's for Hub and I...Even though it's Hellish weather, we still have to wear long sleeves some days to protect our skin from the sun and the drying wind while on the Harleys..you would not believe the way moisture is sucked out of your body while rolling down the highways at 70! So, every little bit of protection helps.


I couldn't leave my T just plain ol vanilla white...so I had an *ah ha* moment and thought of spay paint and stencils...Michelle Ward is the queen of spraying things! So I took the cue from her and went to make some magic on my T:

After doing a couple of light coats of flat black on it..what did you expect? pink? Comeonpeople..this is for a Harley trip, I have to keep up my biker image..hehehee

I let the paint dry for about 15 minutes, then popped it in the washer with some other stuff and look how awesomely(is that a word?? ) faded it came out!! I love it!! Looks old and well worn!

Then after some in town business yesterday, I got to play in the studio while the paint dried on some samples and look what I turned out:

These durn things are so much fun! I hope I can find something to do with them...

Ya'll know the RAK I showed you yesterday? Well, I'm passing it on and my RAK to someone is going out in the mail today!!

We are hitting the highway for the next few days, so no 'puter till we get back home..Ya'll be good and if you can't be good at least have fun! Hub and I are!

later gator,
