A Quickie for the Road


Happy Monday everyone! leslierahye here sharing my last Globecraft and Piccolo post. Yes, you read it correctly, this is my last post here. I LOVE Globecraft and Piccolo products and will continue to "melt" things for years to come! I have enjoyed sharing projects with you and I hope you have enjoyed my inspiration.  With that I leave you a quick project for the winter months--a snowman pendant!

On a chipboard bezel I applied Enamel Powder Adhesive to aid the White Enamel Powder in sticking to the pendant. I built up layers of EP bring it to a bubble sometimes to get the texture in the enamel--to mimic snow. I then adhered the nose and black crystal bling with glastique and added a grosgrain ribbon to the back for a scarf. a simple piece of twine acts as a neck "chain."

The Midway!


Happy Monday everyone! leslierahye here sharing a layout using the midway rides chipboard. My husband and daughter recently attended the State Fair of Texas and took some fabulous photos at the midway that I knew would be perfect with the midway chipboard. I created an 8×8" layout and layered the "rides" along the bottom. Deep Blue and Ruby Red Slippers EP were the perfect powders to coordinate with the red and blue neon of the midway! I hope you enjoy my layout!

Snow Twinchie


Happy Monday everyone! leslierahye here sharing a twinchie [2" square] that I created for you on some Art Board with my favorite Piccolo Powders. I layered on Turquoise Lagoon until I had the surface nice and thick. I sprinkled in some Pure Platinum and a touch of Deep Blue before adding my "snow" washers to the surface of the twinchie. I then layered several coats of clear UTEE to build up a finish and dipped the edges of my twinchie into the Deep Blue Sky to create a boarder.
To complete the twinchie, I added some white paint dots and wrote the word "snow".

I hope you enjoyed my project! Thank you for stopping by today!

A Key Pendant



  Happy Monday everyone! leslierahye here sharing a jewelry piece that I made using the new release from September of Key Accents...there are some nice BIG keys in this release and they are perfect for jewelry making projects. I used the biggest keys in the 6×6" matrix of keys. I embossed opposite sides and then glued the 2 pieces together. I went around the edges with a black pen. Once dry, I wrapped black wire with beads around the key making a few loops and adding a decorative loop to the bottom and a bail to the top. This made it easy to add to the silk cord necklace! A few matching beads and charms were added to the end loop to finish off the piece


I hope you enjoyed my project! Thank you for stopping by today!

A Happy Hello



  Happy Monday everyone! leslierahye quick and easy happy card using the Piccolo accents! I used the beautiful Pop Up Flower Accents and coated two with adhesive fluid and the Girls Night Out EP. I built up a few layers on those two and finished off with a small touch of Vintage Gold EP in the center. For the middle flower, I built up layers of Cranberry Wine EP and then added a bit of Girls night out to the insides of the flowers and some Vintage Gold to finish it off. To finish off the flowers I edged the with a dark marker. I adhered each onto my card mats with white glue and set aside to dry!

I hope you enjoyed my project! Thank you for stopping by today!

Snowflake Pin



  Happy Monday everyone! leslierahye here with a wintery pin. I used the labels and frames from the new release Fancy Labels & Roses Accents and embossed the label with Royal Sterling and the Frame of the Rose Accent with Bahama Aqua. I layered these together to form the base of my pin.
Next I embossed snowflakes in Siam Silver, Bahama Aqua and Royal Sterling and layered then onto the pin base. I added some bling on the frame and in a few of the snowflakes to complete the front of the pin. A pin back was added to the back so that it could be worn on a jacket, hat, scarf or sweater!

I hope you enjoyed my project! Thank you for stopping by today!

Trick or Treat Dimensional Card


  Happy Monday everyone! leslierahye here with a dimensional trick or treat card using the Trick or Treat Ornament!The ornament comes with two globes and two rings for holding the globes on. For the card I used just one ring and one globe. I am holding back the 2nd ring and globe for another dimensional card or project.
I clipped off the top of the ornament where the hanger would go and heat embossed the center ring that contains the characters with Vintage Black. The silver in the vintage black collected on the ghost and the black and gold on the witch and the moon--it did perfect! For the top ring that holds down the globe I covered it with spider paper, edged the ring with black india ink and heat embossed UTEE on top to give a more aged look to the ring. I sandwiched the rings and the globe and held them together with clothespins until adhered. I applied a piece of patterned paper to the back of the ornament frame.
To finish off the front of the card, I embossed Vintage Silver to the edges of the matte and layered the globe over the accent strip so that the words Trick or Treat could be read.

I hope you enjoyed my project! Thank you for stopping by today!

Dragonfly Medallion


  Happy Monday everyone! leslierahye here sharing a few new releases from last month that I just love! I created a back for the Circle frame on corrugated card board. I heat embossed the backing with Mermaid Tears. Next I embossed the Circle Frame with Gilded Rose Gold. I glued the frame to the backing and added a single crystal rhinestone to each loop. Next I embossed some flower tops with the gilded rose and some with the Girls Night Out and layered them to create dimensional flowers. I bent up the petals just a bit to give a little more dimension. I finished off the flowers with a rhinestone as the centers. These were arranged as on the center of the frame.
Finally I embossed the centers of the dragonflies with the Shamrock Dreams and then embossed over the wings again with Mermaid Tears. I love the opalescent effect it gives the wings when these two powders mix! The dragonflies were place on the flowers and frame to complete the look. This embossed medallion makes a great ornamentation for a shelf of a small wall.

I hope you enjoyed my project! Thank you for stopping by today!

BBQ Layout with Piccolo Accents and Sweet Stamps Art Stencils


 Happy Monday everyone! leslierahye with 6×6" layout featuring the BBQ Fun Accents from the August Release and the Tire Tracks Stencil from the September Art Stencil Release at Sweetstamps.com!  I began by heat embossing my tools and grill with the Vintage Black Emboss Powder. I left the flame untouched so that I could come back with the 3D Enamel in Deep Red and Orange. All accents were set aside to cool. The BBQ was coated with Mars Black 3D Enamel.
On my scrapbook page, I stenciled with the adhesive fluid the Tire tracks on their side so that it looked like smoke! Skipping around on the stencil so that there is not full coverage in all areas adds to the smokey effect! I embossed with Mermaid Tears and when it cooled added White chalk powder to further enhance the smokey feel. I then went around the edges of the page with Vintage Black emboss powder. I completed the layout by matting my photo of the yummy steaks and layering the matted photo on top of the smoke and a strip of pattern paper. Next the Piccolo accents were layered on the layout. Finally I went around the edges with pen-doodling.

I hope you enjoyed my project! Thank you for stopping by today!

A Trio of Trading Cards


Happy Monday everyone! leslierahye with a trio of Altered Trading Cards. I LOVE ATCs--they are little pieces of artwork on a 2½×3½" card! Piccolo Accents are perfect for these!
I began with some pre-designed collages on colored  collage sheets. I adhered the collages to my ATC chipboard base. Next I applied Enamel Powder Adhesive to the edges of each ATC and enamel powder to match the base collage. Enchanted Aubergine to the photographer, Temple Stone for the jewels Victorian chic, and Deep Blue for the Papillons. A bit of the powder or an accent powder like Mermaid Tears and Bahama Aqua was sprinkled and melted in a Frantage technique fashion. I love that spill of melted powder.
Accents were made with the piccolos and the melted enamel molds. A bit of glue to add them to the card completed the piece.
I hope you enjoyed my project! Thank you for stopping by today!

An Inspired Tag


Happy Monday everyone! leslierahye with an inspiration tag created with emboss enamels and a piece of mica along with some of the molded embellies that I created last week--it's addictive...I just kept melting and filling the molds!

I created the tag with layers of embossed backgrounds, air brushed and water stamped backgrounds. A final layer of Gilded Rose along the edges of the distressed tag and some Mermaid Tears applied Frantage Style finished the base of the tag.

Next I stamped with die ink the inspired stamp and sprinkled Micro Black on to the surface of the mica. I heat set the words and waited for my piece of mica to cool. I attached it to the tag with some copper brads. I finished the tag with some of my molded embellies and some fancy fiber string.

I hope you enjoyed my project! Thank you for stopping by today!

Molded Embossed Embellishments

Happy Monday everyone! leslierahye with a steampunk fatbook page that I create using embellishments that I made with Piccolo Emboss Powders. I am a mold addict--there, I said it. I think molds are awesome...from molded food and resin projects to jewelry projects and more...molds are, simply put, FUN!


Today I used silicone molds which come a variety of ways. There are companies that make them special for embellishments and then there are food companies that make them for decorated cakes and there are also companies that sell the materials to make your own mold! I chose to use molds for crafting embellishments.I found that heating up the mold a bit before adding a sprinkling of emboss enamel helped the enamel to melt faster and stay in the mold rather than flying out! I added enamel in metal colors to the gear molds and built up my molten pile until it was near the edge of the mold. Once I was happy with the fill, I set my mold to the side to cool completely. Before popping out the embellishments, I zapped the edges of the mold one more time to melt the thin "flash". Once removed from the mold you can add more paint or colorants, sand or whatever. I like the shiny metal look of the gears but on some I zapped the top of the gear to give a textured metal look! I think these were perfect for my steampunk fatbook page~!
I hope you enjoyed my project! Thank you for stopping by today!

The Keys to my Steampunk Heart

Happy Monday everyone! leslierahye with a steampunk jewelry project today! I love the Piccolo keys and the steampunk charm sets--it seemed only natural to create a pendant to reflect my love for steampunk!
I melted several layers of Vintage Black and when I had it nice and molten I pressed a grid stamp into the enamel.

Likewise I embossed some of the gears with Vintage Copper and added the same texture with the grid stamp.

Finally I embossed some gears with gilded rose gold and a few with Copper Kettle.

I layered the gears on the bezel and attached the bezel and some black chain to the satin cord with jumprings. The keys were embossed with Gilded Rose Gold and Vintage Copper. They were attached to the chain with jumprings. A beaded dangle was added to the chain as well!

Alice's Wonder-Pendant


  Happy Monday everyone! leslierahye with another jewelry project today! This creation was made using royalty free Alice in Wonderland images and a variety of charms with the Piccolos, Gels and Glastique.
I printed my Alice image to fit the skinny rectangle bezel and adhered it to the background. I heat embossed my keys and steampunk airship accents with Victorian Bronze. I added emboss powders to the edges of the bezel as well. I used glastique to adhere the embossed chipboard to the bezel and then added a layer of glastique over the top of the Alice image.

The charms were colored with 3D Enamel Gels and an additional coat of glastique was added over the top.  Charms and bezel were joined with black jump rings and chains.

  I hope you enjoyed my project! Thank you for stopping by today!
