Good morning friends, followers and visitors! Oh I have had some relaxing therapy with my new love of mdf crafting! Dreamees have recently started selling mdf shapes that can be painted, decorated and embellished. I fell in love with the idea of creating something that is beautiful for display and can be personalised. So I bought THREE mdf kits from Dreamees via Create and craft.
Let me first start by saying how good value for money they are. The quality is really good. The kits came with stamp sets too - again added to the value for money. In one kit you receive an alphabet set; when I opened the package I was amazed at the size they were a lot bigger than expected and they stamp perfectly. (Dreamees stamps always do!) furthermore in another kit you get a good variety of shapes to decorate. I found this perfect as this is my first time crafting with mdf. It has allowed me to try something new without worrying about my purse! Yippee!
Now let me show you my first project done with the kits.
This is a hanging tag that I did for my daughter, backed with pattered paper and distressed around the edges using distress inks. I used dreamees flower stamps and embellished with a dazzler. I personalised using a zig writing pen.
My second mdf project here is a hexagonal frame backed with American crafts paper. the frame itself has been backed with bazzill bling card-stock and distressed with ink. I have embellished using dreamees flower stamps onto vellum that has been coloured with pro markers. I added some flat back pearls to finish. The text has been made using the alphabet stamp set and inked up with memento. I have applied a varnish using mod podge gloss.
Thanks for popping by!
love and crafty hugs
