Sewing....

This is a tag I've made featuring sewing......this week at Gingersnaps the theme is Sewing Notions, the scissors I embossed in gold, they are chipboard from Maya Road. The minature sewing thread card is from the Craft Stamper magazine in their download section,I reduced the image down in size for a more minature look, the main image is from Cherry Pie stamps which I stamped onto distressed calico and then embossed in gold.....parts of the image came out in gold which gives it a more vintage look. The background of the tag is stamped using a tape measure stamp from B Line and a Tim Holtz stamp.

Todays challenge is a colour one ....Advocado, Pumpkin and Eggplant, so it just had to be a Halloween card to wish everyone a happy Halloween, The main tag had quite a few techniques on including wrinkle free distressing, spritzed then in gold, the folder is from you know who !!, the raised areas I coloured with alchohol inks, the pumpkin I embossed in clear and put a wash of inks over to get in all the little cracks.The image is from The Graphic Fairy. The stamped and torn banner was distressed in Dusty Concord and Spiced Marmalade, the stamp is from Inkadinkado.....such a great name.Background paper was a freebie from Bearly Mine Designs.

Today see the start of another challenge over at Gingersnap Creation Challenge, this week is a supply challenge.......use versamark, I used it in a couple of ways, the background has been stamped in versamark using a background stamp from Viva, I then brushed cosmic shimmer powder over the stamped image to get a lovely sheen. I used it also for the embossed sentiment and butterfly. The jar stamp is from Artistic stamper and I used foil in purple to add chips of glimmer. Flowers are glimmer misted scraps.

Gingersnap Creations Challenge

I was aked by Ali from the Gingersnap Creations challenge to be a visiting artist for the month of October along with my blogging buddy Annette from Nettys Craftings..........must admit I was nervous about joining them for the month as they have some amazing artists, but I was tempted to have a go so here is my first project for the month.......the challenge this week is Gothic Elements, now this is a theme I have no experience about let alone any stamps/stash but hey ho thought I'd give it a go. The diamond background stamp is from The Artistic Stamper, the lace one is a B Line stamp, the arch is from Crafty Individuals, and the bird is from Paper Artsy  which I triple embossed, other images are downloads. I distressed the background with Black Soot before stamping and sticking the images down. I spritzed the whole card in Twilight glimmer mist afterwards.
