Tempting Organza


This weeks Just Add Ink Challenge is Just Add Material. So I thought this is a good opportunity to play! I've glued (using PVA) Turquoise Organza to White paper and let it dry. I've then punched and stamped it. I used Staz On for the ink- but it's still got a softer feel. Some last minute sneek Peeks here too:
Stamp Sets:
Artistic Etchings (new)
Curly Cute ( new)
Friends 24-7
DSP; Newsptint (new)

Let me know what you think of my Turquoise Delight.

Vintage Wallpaper





Time for another Colour Challenge at Just Add Ink. Now I didn't read this properly yesterday, so I thought it said Rose Red- I made a gorgeous card took photos went to load it up at thought - "Oh it's Real Red I'm supposed to of used". So today I have made another card but using Real Red this time. I wanted to create a Vintage Wallpaper kind of 40's feel and I think I managed that with the help of the Damask stamp from Friends 24-7, and the peony from Asian Artistry- I love this stamp. I've used the pastels and Chocolate Chip Ink. Today's sneek peek is the flower Punch isn't this lovely?- a really easy way to make flower embellishments for cards and scrapbook pages- coming soon x

Beachcomber



This weeks Challenge at Just Add Ink is Just add Embossing. I love embossing some of the ladies have been saying how when they first learned to emboss- they embossed everything gold- I still love embossing in gold- though I don't think I pop it on everything- anymore...
I've heavily embossed a wooden domino in gold and then stamped in Staz On with a small shell from the Seaside Set. Then I've added some hemp twine and a starfish charm ( non- SU). The background I brayered in Pacific Point and Not Quite Navy. Stamped the Starfish from Seaside, masked it and stamped over it with En Francais. I also added DSP- Haiku, Kraft Taffeta Ribbon and some distressing.
I mounted it on to Brilliant Blue- which is only with us for about 6 more weeks, as it's one of the retiring colours. Contact me for the complete list of Retiring Colours or to make your order before supplies run out.
