Hey crafty friends,
I’ve been struggling with my creativity. We had to say goodbye to our gorgeous boy a few weeks ago and it has knocked me for six. We were blessed to have him in our lives for nearly 11 years and until the last few weeks he was full of life, energy and fun. It was so difficult making the decision to say goodbye but it was the right thing to do for him as he was suffering. I’ve been looking through photo’s, remembering all the lovely places we went together and the adventures we had. He was the loveliest dog and everyone who met him loved him. This photo is one of our favourites and was taken at the Shoreham Airshow many years ago and is on a canvas in our kitchen. He was such a big part of our family and we miss him terribly but he lives on in our hearts.
So I’m simply sharing two cards I made recently featuring the Stitched All Around stamp set and Stitched Labels dies.
The first was one we made at class last month. Although you can’t see it from the photo the Soft Sea Foam mat was spritzed with a homemade shimmer spray, which adds an amazing sparkle. I love the background, which is created using one of the dies from the Stitched Labels set. The sentiment is heat embossed on a Stitched Shapes oval with clear embossing powder. Simply stamp in versamark first, then tap the stamp in your chosen colour before placing the stamp on your cardstock. Quickly add clear embossing powder and set with a heat tool. It’s a great way to get a heat embossed image or sentiment in any colour you have!
The next card was one I gave to a dear friend for her birthday. As I often do, I forget to take photo’s before writing my cards so she actually took the photo’s for me! It’s my first attempt at a spinner card and I was chuffed with the way it turned out. My friend loves it too which is always nice.
