Blog Candy

I wanted to let you know about some Blog Candy. It's over on Linda Elbourne's blog A Crafting Journey . Linda's blog is great fun, as she has a wonderful wacky sense of humour.
Her crafting is also brilliant, and she has been chosen as the first DT memeber for LB Crafts (and we all know how amazing Lin's work is!)
Pop on over, and read her blog, look at her art work, and try win some candy :)

10 weeks 'til Christmas

I have joined a new Christmas challenge called 10 weeks till Christmas (gulp, only 10 weeks????).
The forum is run by the very talented Beatrice Katzel from Katzelkraft and looks like it will be great fun! There are even prizes to be won...
Come and join in, the site is French, but the challenge is written in English as well. I speak NO french and have registered and set up a forum thread already, so if I can, anyone can :)
If you need more details, have a look at Isabelle Norris' website here and get the details of how to join in.

Another autumn card

I am not sure about this one. I made the background first, and it turned out very busy. It has taken me weeks to finish the card, trying to tone the background down, whilst not losing the effects.
I have used resist technique on the background (with Adirondak Caramel and Distress Ink Spiced Marmalade over clear embossing powder), then sprayed it with Autumn Leaves Glimmer Mist, and finally over stamped with black swirls.
The stamps are Crafty Individuals (the bird), and Isabelle Norris' Katzelkraft word stamps (in French) which you can buy at The Craft Barn.


Please let me know what you think of the card.

RSS challenge 6

So here is my entry for the RSS Challenge 6, and just in time... the challenge ends tomorrow!

For the background I used a Tim Holtz mini mask, with Tattered Rose Distress ink and VersaColor Sky Grey throughout the card.

The stamp is from Crafty Individuals, the B is grungeboard (painted white and embossed with Stardust embossing powder).

Thank you for looking, I hope you like it.
