SWEET STAMPIN' - SOMETHING NOT NORMALLY USED FOR CRAFTING





What a challenge this one was for us all this month over at Sweet Stampin - you should have seen me hunting round the house looking for something that little bit different.  Eventually in my kitchen drawer I found a scone cutter/cookie cutter and thought aha!




I started off by using some Tim Holtz Distress Ink in Wilted Violet to add a coloured background.  I then took the cutter and dipped it into some Liquitex Acrylic Ink in Turqoise Deep.  Some of the images came out as the outline and some came out filled in and I thought both looked great.

I used the same colours on some extra paper and used a Tim Holtz butterfly die to cut it out.  I added this to some black card stock and added some Liquitex Ink in Iridescent Bright Gold around the edge with a fine paint brush.

I added the sentiment with some Gold Embossing powder.  I used a deckle scissors to cut out both panels.  I love how this turned out and look forward to seeing what you use for your piece.


I'm adding this into the following challenges:

Make the Cards Challenge #12 - Butterflies 
Use Your Stuff - Spring 
International Art & Soul - Winged Creatures
Dragonfly Dreams - add a creature
Allsorts - Butterflies
Simon Says Stamp - Wednesday - Birthdays

    This is inspired! I would never have thought of something like this - in fact, I'm really pleased that this was a Team Wends challenge as I wouldn't know where to start! Great job! xx
