Goddess of Time Canvas by Katie Lamb




Evening Crafters 

Another week is upon us, hope you had a fabulous weekend.  




Katie has been working on a very intriguing canvas, using a huge mix of stash from the shop.







  • I started off by painting the base with black gesso and then sticking down all the embellishments and then painting it again with black gesso.
  • The focal point was made by gluing a resin face to the metal frame and then sticking that to a mdf spoon.
  • once the first layer was done i then painted the main pieces with white gesso and then spritzed the centre of the canvas with copper and scarlet sprays before spraying violet over the rest of the canvas.
  • I added the micro beads and glass chips using gel medium
  • I painted the word with the rust paste so it would stand out.

Christmas Paper Mache Door-hanger by Sandra




Evening Crafter's 

Well the weekend is nearly upon us again, and excitingly its Black Friday tomorrow, so that's means there's quite a few bargains to be had on lots of things previously not seen on the website - This is available NOW!! Just click on the link below.



Sandra is back with her final blog post using the November Goodie Box, bless her, working with a poorly hand as well. Get well soon :)









  • Paint your papermache hanger with white gesso
  • After drying, ink the edges with dark brown ink.


  • Cover one of the wooden stags and the Scrapiniec Christmas Sketch decors with embossing ink and heat emboss it with brown glittery embossing powder.
  • Add a piece of hessian and lace ribbon vertically in the centre of the door-hanger.

  • Glue the embossed chipboard swirls in the upper left and lower right corner, and the stag in the centre.
  • Thread some light bulbs from the Christmas Lights tin on some thread and put them between the stag's antlers.
  • Take three resin stars from the Resin stars and stag and use some brown ink on them. Adhere them on your hanger. Finish off your hanger with an Elk glass dome.


Wow I love this door hanger, I haven't tried heat embossing Scrapiniec chipboard before. but I certainly will now.

We would love it if you can leave a comment to support our designers.
