Card


Another card using my current favourite stamp by ISC! I wanted to try out a technique that was in a recent edition of Craft Stamper using Castaway Ink - the background was created by covering the card with various colours of pigment ink and then covering with dye inks. I stamped the flourish (Stampin' Up) with the Castaway Ink and then ironed it to activate the 'bleaching' effect. I used the same technique on the background of the skinny below.

A for Art


I made this skinny for the new Alphabet Challenge Blog - and being the first one, it is A! I decided to use another stamp that I haven't used for ages - 'Arty' by Janet Klein for Stampotique Originals, and the 'art is just a pigment' quote is by Elusive Images.

That's the challenge this week on the Inchybyinch blog. I've embossed mine with a little bird and mouse stamps.

Flower Twinchy


I made this twinchy for the Small world of inchies challenge - flowers. The main image is a small stamp by Crafty Individuals, and I've used gold leaf rub-ons on the background card.

TYI: Easy as 1, 2, 3




A recipe challenge from Tag You're It! this week - to use 1 piece of ribbon, 2 buttons, and 3 brads or eyelets. Here on my tag I have also used a flourish stamp by Inkadinkado on the background, the Chinese text is by Hero Arts, and the main geisha image is a stamp by Crafty Individuals. The flowers were made using Cuttlebug dies. While I had these stamps and dies out, I decided to carry on and make a skinny with them, but in a different colour scheme.
