Technique Time Tuesday

Caught in Crystal

I love to pop into Mynette's challenge blog Technique Time Tuesday , I am interested in learning new techniques whenever possible, however, for this particular challenge I have made cards using this wonderful technique before, so had to have another go to enter into the challenge. It is one of my favourite techniques and one the ladies of my class always enjoy, because until your project has dried and you turn it over, if you can be patient enough to wait, you never know what it is going to be like - it's always a surprise.

Hope you enjoy the video Mynn - thanks for giving me this technique to play with - love it!

Anything with Wings

Here we are the second challenge at Fantasy Stamping - the challenge for the next two weeks is  Anything with Wings. this opens itself to lots of possibilities, so get hunting through your stamps to find the wings you wish to create with. I found myself diving for stamps I have from The Stampman, quite a selection of winged botanical stamps, but chose the Dragonfly. It has been a little while since I used one of my favourite techniques - Caught in Crystal - here is an easy You Tube video to follow, the second option is the one I used. - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FaAi_cxKMH0
