I started with one of the backs you get with frame 
I covered the bored with mod podge then using some tissue
paper lade it over and let it stick how it fell leaving creases
then I took the stencil and using some ink spray & dabbed it over 
then let it dry.

Once it was dry Iv took the candy floss sparkle and just added it
over the flower bits of the stencil, Then took the Blue sapphire
and added it to only the swirls and dots
the stencil was of a bit so it was not on top.
I used the blue around the edges to finish and added 
some flowers from my stash and perils I hot glued the ribbon on to

May Arts ribbon design team call


Morning my lovely followers and friends
hope your having a fab week 
This post is for the DT call for May Arts ribbon written/video

I would love to do video tutorials and have many on my You Tube Channel.

My first post is a crochet ribbon basket with 2 colour ribbons, white satin and gray organizer. 




2nd post is a mini album I made from scratch using my new prima Stationers Desk A4 papers and some ATC bits I have.
The tags are ATC papers and card the frame is also from the ATC collection.
I used ribbon for holding the pages in place and the yellow flowers on the front are ribbon flowers.
I used ribbon on the tags inside the mini and as the fastener.







My 3rd project is an altered wooden spoon 


First I took 2 sprays Lilac Night and Aqua Lagoon and spritzed a bit on to my mat, it only needed one squirt of each colour.
Then using a make up sponge dabbed it all over the spoon.
I used Aqua first and it seems a greenie/blue 
Then dabbed a bit of the Lilac here and there.





Then I used a Versa Mark ink pad and dabbed it on bits of the spoon then added some Meltdust which is like embossing powder.
Then I heated it up.





Before I added the feathers I was going to wrap ribbon around it but changed my mind LOL.
So I added some feathers with hot glue, then I wrapped a bit of gingham ribbon around a small bottle then hot glued it on to the spoon.




I glued a mini tinkerbell charm so it looks like she's been let out the bottle.




I added some more feathers and a bit of ribbon with (all my love) on it.




I added another tinkerbell at the bottom of the bottle,like she has let the other one out.
Next I added a bow to the gingham ribbon below everything.

I do hope you enjoyed this tutorial, as you know I do love doing them.
So thats me for now.
Thank you for stopping by.
Big Hugs & Love.
