Sneaky Peak Where I've Been


Good afternoon crafters I've been in my craft room again altering letters here's a sneak peak at the first letter.

My son is going on a trip to Parents Get Lost ie pgl  they do lots of water sports and. Activities for 4 days, he's so excited but oh my the organising is too much they need so much lol but it's worth it .

I will be filming part of my new altered mixedmedia letters so I'll be back with the you tubs video :)

Altered Clock


Hi everyone not posted in a while as I took the kiddies on a mini break to Hastings. 
Well needed and well worth it absolutely loved it beautiful part of England.

So before I left I primed the clock and got it ready then while I was away all I could think about was this clock lol.

We got back Monday and today is the first chance I've had to get in my craft room and with our glorious British weather it's been raining all day which is perfect for me as I'll not be cooking whilst working haha.


 This is my altered clock it's large and I was a big worried I'd aimed to high and wouldn't do it justice.
But oh my how pleased I am with the finished result, I used the Prima Lyric line such beautiful papers :)
I also used some dusty attic chipboard pieces and Tim Holt ideology numbers and wild orchid craft and I am roses flowers, trims and lace and so much shimmer.

Take a peek, I also have a video uploaded on my YouTube channel

Mixed media memories layout

Happy Sunday :) I've completed my 12x12 memories layout of my son at 2 weeks old, it seemed to of taken ages waiting for bits to come I'm post and then my vagabond broke and was waiting for sizzix to send out another one lol oh the joys.

I'm so pleased with how it turned out it has lots of texture and I even made my own glimmer mist as I needed a certain colour and didn't have it in my collection.

I also used one of my favourite techniques stamping into texture paste and I'm loving how it turned .

There's is a more detailed video on YouTube my channel is Toni Tickner plz pop over and check it out
Take care everyone and happy crafting

My First Mixed Media Canvas : Fly

Here's my very first mixed media canvas I'm so happy with how it turned out,
There's so much texture and so much shimmer.

I brought the canvas's in a pack of four and got stuck in firstly using some modelling paste and tissue paper then gesso'd over the top.
Grabbed lots of embellishments like iamroses flowers, wild orchid craft flowers metal embellishments and other items out my stash.

Then I gesso over everything and sprayed and sprayed with my glimmer mists I uses apple, latte, cork and electric blue

I just love how it turned out
