Claire C I've used my PanPastels and some of my favourite Premium Craft Brands stamps to alter this little mdf birdhouse, you can find links to the products i've used below and all the details on my blog.







Terry: I altered a round box and made it into a Jewelry Box, with lots of Gesso, Light Modelling Paste, worked with the stencils from DD and a Laserart stencil with Fences, finished my box by coloring with Metallic Pans and a little butterflie on top and some lace all around the box.



These are some of the products that I have worked with:




Lou Sims: I have used my pan pastels to create a beach scene which was quicker than I anticipated and gret fun to do. Full details and more photos can be found on my blog.
