De-stampelwinkel catch up..... picture heavy long post!

Today is my day to post at DE-STAMPELWINKEL,
I have used a star from one of our pound stores to make a decoration for my 'gitter dragon' daughter.
I removed the bits and pieces that were attached to the star and gave it a rough coat of paint.
The bits i took off will of cause be recycled at a later date:)
Its so not my 'thing' but GD loves it.
Next up ..... remember the kiddies board books that babies all have?
 I thought that one of these altered would make a lovely gift box.... for a small piece of jewellery i have yet to complete.
 I stamped onto DP, coloured my image with promarkers
then carefully covered my altered board book.
 Next.... something a little whimsical....
 I made a bird cage using TH dies....
 ... but i didnt want birds in my cage, I wanted little dragons.
Loads of fussy cutting with these little guys but the finished piece is really quite cute....  i use 'cute' in a quirky quaint kind of way.... not super sweet sugary way :)
 Finally on my DE-STEMPELWINKEL catch up i have a set of 3 ATC's
All just stamped ,masked, coloured with promarkers and then ink distressed.

All the stamps for all these projects come from DE-STEMPELWINKEL.
... as do most of the other supplies used.
Hope i havent bored you to tears..... needing to get caught up with all my projects so i can make a fresh start for CREEPMAS.
I'd like to enter the following challenges....
CRAFTY HANDS- 'SPARKLE AND BLING' ....the star.
LEFT OF CENTRE CHALLENGES.... NO PEOPLE.... the caged dragons
STAMPING WITH THE DRAGON...AUTUMN COLOURS.... the caged dragons and the atc's
FAIRYTALE CHALLENGE... PHOTO INSPIRATION.... the star.

I LOVE PROMARKERS...ANYTHING GOES....all 4 projects use promarkers.... although the best examples are the ATC's...and the altered board book.
Thanks for stopping by BDx
