This is what she has to say about her project:

As GDT is always fun to start with a specific theme and see the results.

Everyone is doing very different and you will probably do what you feel sure about.

My choice of color changes just like the season. There have been and are very purple and pink now.

This time I have used the image Ragamuffin and colored with Tombows and Spectrum Noir.

Since the theme is pearls and lace / ribbon will be my embellishments this time.

Dies are from Joy and Marianne Design

Guest Designer - Thursday

Welcome to Fitztown on this lovely Thursday. Ema here to introduce another September Guest Designer, Wio. You can see more of her fabulous work on her blog, Wiola's Creative Space.

Here is what Wio wants you to know about her:

I’m a social worker, tree hugger and veggie lover. I’m also a big sister and little sister. I have three awesome sisters. My oldest little sister is like a twin to me, since we have almost identical opinions and ideas.

At high school I went to the Aesthetic Program - textile/fashion. For several years my crafting was focused on sewing – only. When I had finished high school I was so tired of sewing that my brand new sewing machine was left untouched for a long time. I went to social work college and didn’t find time for bigger craft projects, such as sewing. Eventually I felt the NEED to craft again. So, I started painting… with all the left-overs of my nail polish. Since I worked in the social care, I couldn’t use nail polish anymore since that would be against the hygiene regulations. I made small paintings (in post-card-sizes) and I found myself enjoying it. Later I purchased actual paint and markers, instead of nail polish. Then it didn’t take me long before I had discovered the world of scrap-booking/card-making with all the different and fabulous papers, digital stamps and other scrap-booking supplies. I found that it suited me perfectly. It wasn’t too time-consuming or demanding. Also I didn’t have to rip more seams (which my sewing projects had often resulted in). 

Here is my project:

It's a bookmark.  I painted the digi with Promarkers (Almond for skin; Buttercup, Pumpkin & Burnt Orange for her clothing; Cocoa, Burnt Orange and Pumpkin for her hair). I also added some touch of Stickles to her clothing (Diamond and Orange Peel). The flowers are painted with Promarkers: Burnt Orange, Pumpkin and Mint Green plus green acrylic paint and finally Stickles: Eucalyptus, Fruit Punch and Orange Peel. The wings are painted with Stickles: Diamond, Green, Orange Peel, Yellow and Cinnamon. The background is painted with Golden Acrylic paint and Chalk-Ah-Lot: Lime on black paper. The stitched border is painted with first green acrylic paint and then golden. The left corner is made with the Soap Bubbles technique (soap mixed with lots of water and golden acrylic paint). I love golden acrylic paint. Lol.

Isn't it fabulous!?! I absolutely love it and I love that she included a link to a new technique! I cannot wait to try something like this myself!

Be sure to stop by our current Challenge #8 - Anything But a Card. There's only a few more days to join in on the fun! 

Thanks for stopping by!

Guest Designer - Wednesday

DT Sande here with today's announcement. We have a new Guest Designer to introduce, Avril Ann Watson. We're so pleased she agreed to be a GD for Fitztown!

Here's what Avril has to say about herself:

About Me

Avril Ann Watson

(Craftingin the Bedroom)

  

I started crafting as a young girl, first with crocheting and knitting, then embroidery and tapestry.

I got into Paper crafting in 2005, after nursing my Dad through cancer and losing him in February of that year.

I started off with a little plastic box, mainly doing decoupage, then got into stamping, and later, CD crafting and digis.  

I have been disabled and unable to work for several years, where upon I found Blogland and FB, I have amassed an amazing amount of friends and like-minded people.  This has been my saviour, in so many ways, as my family, go about their days, I too have something to do, and hope contribute.

I am on several Design Teams, mainly in the Digi arena.  I did do a little stint on Kanban, before they went into administration, that was fun, and I made several projects for their shows, at the NEC and Create and Craft.

Here's my first project:

What a fabulous project, wouldn't you agree? I love the originality of it!

Don't forget! We've still got a few days left on our current Challenge #8 - Anything But a Card. Please join us for some fun!

Thanks for stopping by!

Guest Designer - Tuesday

Welcome Fitztown bloggers! Maria here with today's news... we have our September Guest Designer, Kate Leroche with a card she's made using a Morgan Fitzsimons' image. We'd love to have you leave her some blog love for her awesome project!

Here is what Kate has to say about her project:

It's time for my next card at Fitztown Challenge blog. I have used an image from the Fairy Dust Collection and colored with Tombows. Dies are from Spellbinders and corner punch is an unknown brand. I've used some paper rose and feathers to accessorize the image. I enjoy making angels and fairies just because it has a lot to do with fantasy when you make them.

Have a lovely day!!

Kate

Isn't this just a lovely project! We're so pleased to have Kate with us as GD. She does beautiful work. 

Don't forget there's less than a week left to play along with our current Challenge #8 - Anything But a Card. We'd love to see what you can create when you let the creativity flow!

DT Saturday Julie Ann. any thing but a card challenge

Good Saturday Fitztown Followers.There is still time to join our current challenge any thing but a card. I would like to share a wall hanging with you today. My brother Andrew got married recently, to Rachael. He kept the poor girl hanging on for 13 years. They called Princess Catherine weighty Katie, Rachael was also very patient. I made this by cutting a heart from ply wood using a sizzix large die. The image i used is by Morgan Fitsimons and can be found at the Fitztown shop.If you can not find what you are looking for email sales@fitztown.com The monogram is a stamp i used to make their wedding invitations. They have just moved into their new home, this plaque is a house warming present.
