Back from a very busy crafty weekend, I have a few things to blog. On Friday my friend Val came over and we had a day crafting together. The Saturday was my birthday and I went on a Stampin' Up workshop. Sunday was ANOTHER workshop which was brilliant. I made my card at a Sheena Douglass workshop which was really good fun, I met some lovely people and learnt a lot from Sheena. Towards the end of the afternoon Sheena demoed her next big thing, which I think will knock your socks off; it's a new way of doing something traditional and crafty, using stamps as an aid to achieve it. I was lucky enough to be given one of her two demo pieces, as a birthday present (or was it because of the brownies I made lol?).
This easel card was our afternoon project, using Distress Ink and distressing Coredinations cardstock. I was a bit bothered about a blue baby but I'm quite pleased with the end result. The sentiment is free hand cut, the dandelions on the base are popped up on dots.
I'm entering the following challenges:
Paper Sundaes - distressing
Mami Doodles - mostly blues
The Stamp Man - distress
Crafty Purple Frog Challenge - distress
Stamp Insanity - Shades of You
