Craft Day

Today I had a day off work (due to a teacher training day which I didn't have to attend- yippee!!!) so I spent the day crafting. I planned to make and complete some cards or a mini book but, as usual, I got so involved with playing with die cutting and inks, I didn't finish anything.

Some of my fabulous Spellbinders and Marianne D dies.
They are so easy to use in my Cuttlebug.

I cut loads of my favourite shapes from thin white silk  card.

My work area- as you can see I really like Distress Inks!

Mixing and blending the inks gives some really good results.

So now I have a box of topper style pieces ready to go on some cards or in some mini books. I may not have finished anything but I had a lot of fun!


Until next time

Messy Hands

I love to get messy, not gardening messy but inky fingers messy. Today I've been playing around with Dye Reinkers, Glimmer Mists and Cosmic Shimmer Mists. 

The result is lots of new background papers for stamping on later and very stained fingers which still look dirty despite a lot of washing. Just as well I'm not making anything for tea needing clean hands tonight. Maybe I shouldn't be the one cooking tonight....

Oh so dirty!
