Wild Hibiscus Greetings.....

Hi everyone.

Today I would like to share with you an Altenew stamp set that has been in my collection for a while.  Using my Misti I positioned the stamps that I liked in a randomish pattern and stamped them onto my cardstock using MFT Extreme Black Ink and then applied Versamark over the top and then Gold Embossing Powder.

To create some dimension in  the centre of the flowers I then used Liquid Pearls in Gold Pearl.





Supplies used:

Altenew Stamp Set - Wild Hibiscus
Avery Elle Die - Wonky Stitches
Sue Wilson (Creative Expressions) Die - Happy Birthday
(can be pre ordered)
Gold Embossing Powder from my stash


Thanks for looking and hope you are all keeping safe and  well.


Until next time

Happy Crafting

Carved Birds.....


Hi everyone, dropping in today to share my card for this months new challenge over at Bizzy Becs Store Blog that starts today.


I have revisited some of my Darkroom Door Stamps for todays card and am very happy with how it has turned out.   After watching one of Tim Holtz's videos on distress backgrounds  I learned a new trick to doing  smoosh techniques - dry between applications, oh my what a difference.   Love how you get the little spots of colour -  so cool and lots of inky fun to create.



Supplies Used:

Darkroom Door Stamp - DDRS117 Carved Birds Vol 1
Darkroom Door Stamp - DDSE001 Happy Birthday
Darkroom Door Stamp - DDTS005 French Script
Lawn Fawn Die - Large Stitched Rectangle Stackable
Avery Elle Die - Wonky Stitches
Distress Oxide Ink Pads - Rusty Hinge, Faded Jeans, Hickory Smoke & Antique Linen
Embossing Powder White & Clear
Tim Holtz Distress Micro Glaze

I am also entering into this months colour challenge over at Darkroom Door Inspiration Facebook Group
