Graphic 45 Design Team Audition

Hello my name is Nicole and welcome to my blog, in this post I will list 3 projects and a link to my video where I am creating the Mother Goose tag.

Here is what I enjoy about crafting with paper, I can make functional work like a greeting card, envelopes and stationary for planners or calendars or I can make art work for decoration. Paper crafting has been a long time hobby of mine and I enjoy creating tags and letters mainly, I actually think I can make tags all day. I like creating mixed media, ever since I took a class on it in college. I like to make embellishments for my pieces but I also love stickers and cut-a-part's because they guarantee to match with whatever paper collection I am using. Below you will see three projects I created, two are using the Graphic 45 paper collection Mother Goose 8x8 pad. The last one is using the Prima Something Blue 6x6 stack. I hope you enjoy my paper creations!

The first project is my Mother Goose tag. I love nursery rhymes and fairy tale themes so I had to put something fun together. Here is a link to my video tutorial https://youtu.be/6mcb6ZHmTQw

 

This next project is also using the Mother Goose paper pack, I made a pocket letter. The inside of the pocket letter has a packet I filled with confetti that I made from scrap paper and punches. I also made the envelope from scrap paper and cut out the journal cards from the stack. The stickers are from the G45 Botanical Garden collection.
 

 The last project I created is a wall hanging using a frame from AC Moore, I painted it with gold paint and coated it in glitter. Then I created a card insert with the Prima Something Blue paper pack and sticker from the Dollar Tree sticker section. I stamped on one of the cards and used washi tape to decorate. The flowers came from a discount store near me.

Marc Jacobs Blaquer Mascara

So I may be the last person in the word right now to tell everyone what I think of Marc Jacobs beauty but slowly I'm making my way through the products.  http://www.sephora.com/lash-lifter-gel-volume-mascara-P379421 The first product I want to talk about is the Marc Jacobs Blaquer Mascara, this product is a tubing mascara and builds up amazing volume. The wand is triangular in circumference which is really great for getting to all of my lashes, it's also very long which grabs most of them at once and since it's a tubing mascara it would need to. My eye lashes are super black and don't smudge or run and I have extremely runny eyes that just pour tears out of my outer corner whenever they are even slightly irritated. So lucky me, this mascara is yet another 25$ way too expensive product but honestly it's great. Here's the down side I do not recommend putting mascara on the top and bottom at the same time. Some mascara's don't mind touching together but sin...

Lancôme Je Ne Sais Quoi Collection

Oh You may miss out on this if your not paying attention but I was lucky enough to be in "Lordies" (Lord and Taylor) and found this wonderful collection. Lancôme calls it "Je Ne Sais Quoi" and introduced 3 matte Brightening eyeshadow palettes and 5 gorgeous single shadows! I was tempted to buy the whole collection as it was just laid out  but I'm going to have to save my pennies to get all 3 palettes.  Here go some pictures: There is one eyebrow pencil in the display as well as their staple Artliner and lash primer.  The 3 eyeshadow palettes (Beige Brûlée, Chocolate Amande, and French Nude) are matte but they have one extremely sparkly top coat (marked by the Lancôme logo imprint) shade which takes the whole cake for me . Chocolate Amande has a little more of a gold pearl shimmer in it but is not in anyway glittery. The liner shades are also of a "velux pearl" consistency and kind of throw off of the whole matte idea IMO but still gorgeous anyway. If y...

#Inktober 2018 1 week recap

Hi everyone welcome to my Inktober for 2018. This year I have tried to make more of an effort to have a complete idea. My goal is to develop a method for creating a complete idea. I do not always think through my drawings and often times end up with an unfinished sketch or rough idea. So this year I have been making the effort to go forward until a drawing is finished. I'm not looking to make 31 drawings just 31 post to my social media. The posts will be in various stages of development because I need to work on creating a complete idea. I used to hate making a solid composition and purposely wanted an unfinished idea but now that I'm older I see how truly unfinished my work looked, it just wasn't complete. So now I'm working on what  complete means to me and what I consider a complete piece. If you want to see all of the photos from Inktober 2018 please look at my instagram Glitter_Witch_Crafts to see how everything turned out. This was my first post for the ...
