Distressed technique

 

Lovely ladies Gill and Anne have been inviting me round for a wonderful workshop afternoon and requested a play day with distressing techniques. I used Early Espresso and Pink Pirouette colours.

 

Stamp set: Something to say

Ink: Early Espresso

Card stock: Early Espresso, Pink Pirouette, Very Vanilla

Accessories: Vintage Wallpaper embossing folder, Word window punch, Blossom punch, Vintage brad, Sahara Sand Seam Binding, Small scallop Stampin' Trimmer.

 

With the above card being very female orientated I thought we should do something for the boys too.

 

 

Stamp set: Background stamp Sanded, Label Love

Ink: Early Espresso, Chocolate chip

Card stock: Whisper white

Accessories: Label punch, Banners Framelit, 1 1/4" Burlap Ribbon

 

Keep on crafting, Gen xxxx

Seriously starred!

It's easy to get carried away with new stamp sets and matching dies! It really doesn't take a lot for me to be tempted :-)

 

It seems an age ago that it was my brother's Birthday, but at least he can't spy his Birthday card here before it arrives down under!

 

Stamp Sets: Sassy Salutations, Be the Star

Ink: Pacific Point, Versa Ink & Silver Emboss Powder

Card stock: Whisper white, Pacific Point

Accessories: Stars Thinlits for the Big Shot

 

Along the same lines, here in a male and female theme . . .

 

 

Melon mambo and Blushing bride colours for the girls, while the boys are Coastal cabana and Pacific point. Now, if I could just have enough in stock to keep up with my friends talented teenagers! Well done Jordan and Louis - proving what stars you are!

 

 

Keep on crafting! I'm looking forward to stellar inspired Christmas cards this year, just need a little time to play :-) GenGen xxxx
