Good Morning my crafting friends.
I Hope you have had a good week but please enough rain already... wow I'm starting to think I may sprout webbed feet and paddle everywhere haha.
I have a card again from the last show to put up on the blog and hope you all love it as much as I do.
Here you can see I used the crackle mask to emboss into my milk card then coloured the background my usual way with my distress inks. rusty hinge and peeled paint. I then laid over the Bird on a wire mask and lightly blended a little more of the inks over the tops so you can see the birds in the background.I wrapped some of the champagne crinkle edge ribbon around the card and tied a bow with it too.
The sentiment is from the Black eye Susan Just Rite stamp set which is stunning to work with.Which you all saw on the show with me and I use the sentiments a lot as they are so stunning. I also used two of those gorgeous metal corners for the top of the card which gives a lovely frame. I also matted tat first piece onto some black card then raised it on foam onto another mat and layer of milk then black card.
The main image here of course was from the butterfly multibuy I brought onto the show and here you can see very closely the colouring in matching and contrasting tones which I just love.
I hope you will all tune into our lovely Sue Wilson's blog today to see the answer to what was in the boxes from yesterday if you haven't found out on the creative expressions blog. I think she is making her reveal mid morning at
Particraft. And we all wish her an amazing amount of luck and success of course.
I am looking forward to getting out to a crafty atmosphere and seeing Craftwork cards and our lovely Julie and Sue on their stand but also to seeing my lovely friend Tracey for a cuppa and a chat too.
Have a great day ladies
Kim
