Hello
:D

I bought a new diary (as you do) for the new year, but the only suitable one I found was black. Well if anyone knows me, knows that I like life with a little more colour and sparkle!
I got bored the other day so I thought I'd make my boring black diary abit more interesting!
Here is the result;

My diary is certainly a talking point now! Its been getting lovely comments when Ive been booking repeat appointments.
I know its not everyones cup of tea, but what do you guys think?

I had one client say "you could sell those!"
I'm thinking my phone is next! lol
 
Its quirky Jo.. and very striking :)

But.. I must say you must have too much time on your hands? LOL!!!

I have a black covered diary if you are taking orders ;)
 
Fantastic!!

I've done some 3d flowers on my lighter and had some rhinestone flowers on my old mobile phone - but they now look very poor in comparison to your diary!!

I think it's nice to work on a different canvas every now and again!!
 
It actually didn't take that long really!
Its easier to form the flowers etc as you are working on a larger scale than you would on nails.
It filled a couple of hours whilst the hubby was watching old episodes of Dr.Who! lol.

Hadn't thought of lighters!
I'll never be bored again at this rate! lol
 
Looks fab. Did you use Acrylic or Gel?

I usually airbrush mobile phone cases (you know the ones you clip on) but now i'm put to shame!

This is L&P.
Thank you for your compliments :D
I am sure the airbrush designs look great too!
Maybe you could combine both methods to get a unique look!
 
How do you get it to stay on the cover, do you ''take off the shine'' Hee hee
Very nice, its like a real fish too.

As for the fish, i scetched the design out 1st, using my pet fish as a model then used that as a template.
