About Me

Welcome to my blog

I started this blog in April 2012 so I could join Challenges. I am now on some design teams. I hope you like my cards. I started stamping in 1995 but my cards are still mostly cute.
Thank you to those who have joined as followers and to those who comment.
Unfortunately because of spammers I have had to put moderation on the comments. I will approve them as soon as possible, this also means I don't miss any.

Unstampabelles October challenge

The Unstampabelles challenge theme for October is time and the twist is shabby chic
http://unstampabelleschallenges.blogspot.com.au/


  I have typed a poem onto paper from Bearly Mine Designs Steampunk Fantasy paper set which I lightened so the verse could be read. Have torn the edges and sponged with distress ink.  Layered onto another piece from the same set which I also distressed.   You can't see the pattern in the scan due to the distress ink but you can see it slightly on the card.
Layered onto embossed piece of card with pocket watch embossing folder which was sanded and edges torn.  Added watch brad and layered all onto brown card.
I copied this poem from a poster on my wall.  It doesn't say who wrote it.

I hope you will go over to Unstampabelles and see the work by the design team and join in the challenge.

Remember NO STAMPS ALLOWED.

The embossing is a great place for your image. Thank you for posting your art with us this week during our 152nd challenge at Word Art Wednesday. Hoping you have a fun day, full of creativity, with buckets of blessings as you work, and play.
