It's time for a new theme over at
and this time it was my turn to challenge the ladies
and I want to see texture on their projects.
For my tag I used papers from Basicgrey in green
for my base. I used my trio punch for the shape.
I then cut a piece of designer paper from the same set
and ran it through an embossing folder to added
texture. I then added some white ink to the embossing
to make it stand out more.
This was attached to my base and I ran
it through my sewing machine.
Next I stamped and die cut the leaf using
some gold sparkle embossing powder and die.
You can just about see it in the photo.
I stamped and embossed the sentiment in
gold powder onto a piece of torn vellum.
The stamp set is called Gather Together (SU).
I added some eyelets to either side and laced
some hairy string through it to hold in place.
I finished with some gems in green
and some fibres at the top.
Still not satisfied, I flicked some white ink
over the whole tag.
I would like to enter this into
(embossing folder, wet embossing, white ink, sewing machine, vellum, string,
fibres, metallic rub ons, eyelets)
*********************************
Next up is my ATC.
I used a piece of linen card for the base
and ran some luster rub-ons across it in brown.
I tore a scrap of paper, same as above, to fit
over the top of the base.
I wrapped it with the same hairy string
and then stuck to my base.
I then die cut some leaves in vellum
using the Gather Together bundle (SU),
and again ran my finger over them with the rub-ons
to add some colour and show up the embossing.
These were stuck to opposite corners.
I punched some script into a circle
and again added the rub-ons.
You can imagine how messy my finger is now lol.
I layered up the sentiment from Hunkydory and
stuck in place.
I would like to enter my ATC into
I hope you get time to join us this month as we
do have a lovely prize up for grabs!
