Docrafts Demo May 2014

I have been having so much fun playing with the new collections from Docrafts. Have you seen the pretty papers, fabulous decoupage, wonderful dies and wooden shapes? There are so many lovely new elements and it's been great fun making my samples for Saturday. Please come along and say 'Hello' if you are anywhere near The Range in Carmarthen. I will be there from 10am until 4pm.

I have chosen the projects I've made with the Bare Basics wooden shapes and the Giant Peg to show you today. All the elements I've used are from Docrafts, which covers the Papermania, X-cut, and Artiste paint ranges, amongst others. 

The first is a little house frame. There are apertures you could put mini photos in but I used mirri card to look like windows. I painted it, decorated it with punched flowers and added hooks to hang keys from.

The Giant Peg is brilliant as there are many things that can be done with it. I chose to turn it into a photo holder as it stands up perfectly. I painted the peg in white and gold and decorated it with elements from the beautiful Eau de Nil Capsule Collection.

I die-cut flowers from the papers and used Artiste gold acrylic paint round the edges. I finished them with sparkly Dome Stickers.

I used notelets, crochet trim, ribbon, fabric trim and punched butterflies to decorate.

The Bare Basics wooden shapes are light enough to use on cards. I painted this heart and swiped it with Artiste Spritzing Ink in Gold Stone. The other elements, apart from the Papermania Kraft Card, punched flowers and thread, are from the Eau de Nil Capsule Collection.

I painted the owl in a mix of Artiste Acrylics and tied it to one of the Chalkboard Pegs. I made the flowers from a mix of X-cut dies and punches using the new Coloured Paper Pack. The background is made from one of the fantastic new Shadow Box Dies - Forest. I have used the layers flat on this card.

As you can probably tell my favourite colour is turquoise and I'm in love with the Eau de Nil Collection but I have used the Midnight Blush Capsule Collection and the masculine Heritage Press range for my samples as well. Tomorrow I'll show you some card samples made from these wonderful new collections.
Check out your local Docrafts stockist for the fabulous new products and if any of you are in the Carmarthen area this Saturday please pop in to The Range. I'd love to see you.
