Let's look at your embossed/ stencil projects

 

Good Sunday Morning Ladies,

I hope that you are all enjoying the weekend,  did you do anything fun, any crafting?  

Karen I'm with you, I am really needing a craft show trip, I really miss going to them and seeing all of the new goodies in real life.  

I had a baking day, using up some of our Sourdough 'Discard' (the bit you tip off when you feed your starter every day), I made Cinnamon Rolls,  which were a bit time consuming,  I tipped my first lot of warm milk and yeast down the sink because it didn't bubble up, well after some research 'Easy Action' yeast doesn’t react like normal yeast, you just add it in with your dry ingredients,  so then I got to thinking that maybe the recipe wouldn't work with this yeast,  luckily it was ok, the rose beautifully, as I am writing this the smell of sweet cinnamon is wafting through the house! I made some Sourdough discard Scones too. 

Let's look at what you have been making....

Karen

Karen's Description:

Card 1:   An eBay folder (I think) SW Cake & 

Phill Martin sentiment

Card 2:  I think this is more my style Now I have photographed it I wish I’d “shaved” a bit of the “Merry Christmas “ box to give it a little bit if a blue border …?

Two great cards Karen, I really like that Birthday embossing folder,  its great for any age, any gender, your emboss is very crisp and you have inked over those letters perfectly. 

 Look at you starting your Christmas cards in March!  I love the fun assortment of embossing folders you have used for the little Windows.  

Thank you so much for two fantastic cards XXX

Lilian's Description:

Here is my challenge for this week, I decided to go back to my tags, which I haven’t done any for a while.

I used one of Tim Holtz wall stencils, not sure where the little flower stencil came from. Stamped leaves at the top, Lavinia stamps.

Die cut flower from Tim Holtz again.

Various mediums for colouring.

You really do create the most incredible tags, I guess you have a bit more area to create in than a Thrinchie. I really love how you create that brick wall background,  the colours really work, that ivy stamp works perfectly with the wall too.  The die flower just is the perfect finishing touch.

Thank you so much for another incredible tag XXX

Maria

Maria's Description:

I used my new star stencil for the background in TH ink Lilac and Kitch Flamingo. Next I used the new Embossing folder and die set for the Sweet pea. I coloured it in again with the same inks and greens.

Ooh Maria I really love that Sweet pea, it looks very life-like, it works really well with your lovely background too.

Thank you so much for another gorgeous card XXX
