more from SENZ

 This class we did 9 easy to make cards, but they all looked fabulous.
 This was a cool photo frame class I did, frames are made from chipboard and used thick embossing powder and then some pearl coloured powders sprinkled in and melted again to give a fabuolous effect. Also made the flowers from fabric flowers and water and clear embossed several times to make them look like glass.
This class was intense and no where near done in the 2 hours but I have put in some time since on it, it still is not finished but getting close. Again learned some great technics particularly with shrink plastic, had not used that before. But the end result is a pretty cute and interesting little feature box minitures.

suitcase

This suitcase is beautifully decorated in rose papers, moss green paint and as you can see lovely embellishments of pearls, roses, lace and ribbons. It has a cane handle. Size 25.5cm wide, 20.5cm long and 8.5cm deep. I have so much fun doing these projects, I use this one to display wine charms in.


Crate

This cool little crate is great for all sorts of things. It is one of the Kaiser craft crates and I have painted it in vintage white and decorated with vintage papers with old time lace, it looks delightful. These are so easy to do and great for so many things. You could easily do them for children's rooms for crayons etc.


Drawer set

This is a lovely little drawer set decorated in butterfly papers and soft purple paint with 3D butterflys on 2 of the drawers and dimantees. Ideal for nick nacks like hair ties or jewellery.
