Creative Expressions Thursday

Hi All

Today's card is from my last show on C&C and as chalkboard stamps are so very popular we are using them for our DT projects this month. I really liked this sample and it was one of my very favourites from my show with Nigel he is such a fun host isn't he. We took a picture together actually that day, does anyone remember this?

And look what is this I am holding in my sticky mitt haha... the very same card.

So here it is close up and I just love the clock from the Wendy Vechi line of embellishments isn't it just gorgeous , it is very heavy though as is is solid, so couldn't be used on a thin card I don't think, so the foundation cardstock is just fabulous for the heavier items such as this.
Also I just love the dies I used on this one too, look at my little tiny T bag lol the spoon is just darling too.

Here is a close up on the clock , I stamped the backing stamps with white chalk paint as I demo'd on the show and then once dried with my heat gun I used a white pen to highlight the edges of each element in the backing stamp to make it pop from the background more. Me and my white pen hey....

This photo is tilted back a little more so you  can see the highlights from this angle more.

Have any of you tried any of this type of stamping in a chalkboard style? if so how do you do it?


It doesn't rain when it pours hey ladies?
My daughter had an accident yesterday with a cup of Green tea that had just been made and so she now has a bad burn on her leg and tummy so yesterday was fraught with worry for her too, I got a call at work saying she had done this, thankfully there is a gym on the premises with showers so one of the guys helped her to them and she stood in cold water for 20 mins so we think that helped alot or I would dread to think of the consequences.

How is everyone getting on on the run Up to the dreaded C word. I have had no chance to even get a xmas card for anyone let alone anything else as yet as you all know but I would love to hear your tales?

Love to all my blogglie family

Hugs
