Perfectly Rustics - Embossing

Hello There,

Another challenge over at Perfectly Rustics and this fortnight it is embossing, wet, dry or both.  I made a card for my mothers birthday using an embossing folder and versa mark ink then heat setting embossing powder.  I coloured it in with a chalk pen. I was really happy with the end result and more importantly my mother liked the card and she can be a tough crowd!  Here is my card:

I look forward to seeing your embossed creations at Perfectly Rustics.

Stuck on U Sketches

Hello There,

I had the opportunity to complete a scrapbook page this morning so I sought out a layout challenge for some inspiration and found it at Stuck on U Sketches.   Here is the layout design:

 

And here is my page:

 

 

 

I had so much fun with this page, cracking out a few of my many rolls of washi tape and stamping on vellum.

Perfectly Rustics - Stitching Challenge

Hello There,

I love cracking out the sewing machine to add some stitching to a project, especially a scrapbook page.  Sometimes I think it is not worth the effort, but once you do it, it is totally worth the effort.  This fortnight over at Perfectly Rustics it is all about the stitching.  I have done a scrapbook page using some photos of my little man when he was a baby, here it is:



I did draw the semi circle on in pencil before sewing it, I really like what the sewing has added to this page.  So dust of those sewing machines people and try some stitching on a card or page, once you try it you will be hooked.

Thanks for stopping by and may the crafting force be with you.
