Decorated Wooden Tag

I decorated a wooden tag last weekend as a gift to my Stampin Up mum - my up line Julie Kettlewell. She is opening her own little crafting paradise and all her classes are going to run from this new venue, so I wanted to send my best wishes, and a good luck message. I hope she liked it, it should have been delivered now.

More cards made last weekend

I made these last weekend and they have been appearing on my Stampin Up Facebook page over this week, so I thought I better let you all take a look at them as well. Check out my Facebook page and any questions just contact me at any time. Hope you have all got over eating all those pancakes on Tuesday!

I have been trying to use up some scraps of paper.

Stampin Up Stamp set Awesomely Artistic

I am loving having a dragon fly in the Stampin Up Catalogue. The stamp set Awesomely Artistic lets you make lovely back grounds as well. At the moment I can't get away from Pacific Point colouring :)

Sorry for the lack of words I am a little short of time at the moment, and last weekend I was not up to much, but I am starting to catch up a bit now especially with the washing and ironing!

Clear embossing and water colouring

I have been trying the Stampin Up water colour paper. I have clear embossed an image onto the paper and then water coloured over the top using the aqua painters and my ink pads. I love the effect and it is very easy to complete. I did sprinkle some salt over the images to see if I could get an effect and you can see it has pulled some of the ink back off the paper and left a mottle effect.

The inks do not blend like other inks, but there are times when you do not want them to blend and make a different colour.

Let me know if you would like any further information or click the pages on this blogg to get to my Stampin up shop. Happy crafting xx
