I've really enjoyed having a massively creative couple of days, knitting, felting, painting, drawing and paper crafting being some of the crafts I've been enjoying. Wandering around the internet I came across some of the fantastic work of fellow crafters, and was inspired to have a go at the Lavinia challenge this month. The theme this month is blue and orange hues so here are my attempts.
I've used Distress Oxides to make the backgrounds with oxide stamping on the background then the lovely Lavinia stamps for the stamping. Quite pleased with the cards but so aware of how much paper crafting has moved on. Blown away with some of the new products and thinking I need to try brushos.
What do you think? Do I need them??
I've resisted buying more and more stash, having a craft room full of products which have hardly been used and guilt dictates that I use these first but soooooo love all these new ideas.
Oh well! Back to it, but may have to see how many pennies I have in my piggy bank!
I've also been visiting a very old friend in blog land, a blog we set up many moons ago Tuesday Taggers and I've even entered my card in their challenge. Lovely to see it still up running and going strong!
Hope your all having a lovely week
X Michelle
