Please pop by the challenge blog to see what our lovely guest, and the DT have made :-)





I decided to make a Birthday Card and a Christmas Card using the same products, just altering the amount I used of the pink and aqua inks. I have taken lots of photos of these cards but can't seem to capture the beauty of the sparkle, they are so much more pretty IRL and I am going to have to get more colours of these inks, they are truly gorgeous! 



For this first one I used some Gold String, Gold Sequins and a Simon's Exclusive Scripty Happy Birthday Die Set. For the base layer I used the same pink ink, painted the edges and then spritzed with water, it gives the same watercolor effect as distress inks! 


For the Christmas one I added a few glittered snowflakes and a Simon's Exclusive Happy Christmas Die Cut Sentiment


Thanks for looking!! :-D

Tim Holtz Stamptember Collaboration!

Did you see the Tim Holtz Stamptember Stamp and Stencil collaboration reveal yesterday on You Tube? If not you might want to pop over and watch! The stamp and stencil set is AWESOME and the designers had sent in lots of absolutely GORGEOUS samples for our inspiration!!

Click Here to go and watch the video. 

Heidi very generously sent all of the Monday Challenge designers the Stamp and Stencil Set and mine arrived on Monday evening. I just couldnt wait to ink up a couple of these little critters and made something!



I decided  to make a card and treat bag! 

I couldn't resisit inking up this very annoyed, but awesome looking rat and made a shaker card


For the background I used Distress Oxide Inks and then used the stencil to add a starry trail across the night sky. I also used a Haunted House Cling Stamp for inside the shaker. 


and this bat was just shouting at me to hang him upside down on a treat bag! 

I inked throgh the stencil using white embossing ink and then used Lawn Fawn Glow In The Dark Embossing Powder, very spooky!! :-D 


I couldn't get a great pic of the glow in the dark but you get the idea ;-)



Thanks for looking! 

Here is the  Tim Holtz Stamptember Stamp and Stencil Collaboration Set, isn't it FABULOUS!! If you would like a set then I would suggest that you head on over and grab one quick. Once these have sold out there will be no more produced!!
