Swirlydoos April Kit Projects with Tutorial

Hi, It's my day to reveal all my projects made with the April Swirlydoos Kit - Purple Haze.

Dream Catcher 

First up is a dream catcher I made with the embroidery hoop which came in the April main kit.
I made a video tutorial on how I made this

Here is my video:

To Make this Dream Catcher I used: 

Embroidery Hoop, Prima Shabby Chic Treasures Garden Fountain and Kaisercraft wood shapes Butterfly from the April 2016 main kit 

Rhinestone trim and Aqua beads from the December 2015 kit

Next I have the Layout made using the sketch as inspiration

Here is the sketch which goes with this kit

For my background I used some yellow embossing powder with a stamp and then modelling paste through a stencil.

I cut the Blue Fern Studios Lane Street Sign chipboard into three pieces, then I coloured all my chipboard with Blue Fern Studios Embossing powder in  Buttercup, Petal, Cotton Candy and Sage

Next I added my flowers, lace, resin piece  and liquid pearls

Joy

I loved the Tim Holtz Idea-ology Baroque Frames so much that I wanted to make them the feature of my layout.

I used the Prima bubble stencil with grey ink on my background. Then I used the Prima Platinum crackle paste through a stencil followed by some mists for extra colour.

I added white crackle paste to the Kaisercraft butterflies then coloured them with a brown mist.

I coloured all my chipboard with embossing powder

I inked the edges and the middle section for the box with Distress Ink in Dusty Concord

I place the adhesive pearls trim which cam in the kit around the sides of my box, I had one piece left so I cut it in half at placed it on the top of the box
