Hi everyone, hope you have all been well and had a great week so far...
It's
an honour to be chosen as a Guest Designer for Sweet Stamps. I just
love using their stamps, they stamp crisply and cleary, and the range is
just awesome!
Just
a little about myself...I have been crafting for as long as I can
remember. I was always doing something...I have pretty much tried
everything, from folkart painting, watercolours, mosaics, cottage
crafts, sewing, crochet, quilting, smocking you name it.....but
papercrafts has me going now, and I have been making mainly cards for
about 8 years and am loving it...I am now venturing into the 3d paper
crafting, and I have a lot to learn, my mistakes (and I make a lot of
those) end up being tags or small gift tags lol, at least nothing is
wasted.....I have accumulated a large selection of the 6 x6 paperpads
which I adore...Love collecting more and my second favourite tools are
dies, I am really enjoying using them on my creations....
This card is my first contribution as a Guest Designer this month. It's Christmas with Parchment paper (vellum), using Christmas Rose Candle and Merry Christmas stamps.
I have to be honest and admit that I had never used parchment paper before. I put it through an embossing folder and then stamped the rose candle image on the back and coloured it from the back with promarkers and then flipped it over, then placed it over a some designer paper from my stash, from memory Kaisercraft-just believe...added bling and some stickles (warning, the stickles will crinkle the parchment as I found out..oops)
