Happy Birthday Harry!

After having a look at the resurrection embossing technique at Papertrey Ink Design Team blog I was inspired to make this frame for Harry. This frame had a coating on it and even after sanding the resurrection embossing technique wouldn’t quite work on it, but I like the effect I got just using white embossing powder and sanding it down a little before I painted the frame.

Inks: black document, Versamark with white embossing powder,
Paint: Fired earth better class red, Ancient world papyrus
Stamps: Stampin up pocket silhouettes, unknown bamboo, Lavinia stamps, Aspects of design Rambling 1 (proverb)
Other: Glossy accents crackle glaze, dog charm and chain, brads, rivet

Valentine card

blueHarry09

Ok so I don’t really agree with the concept of Valentine’s day but my husband and I do exchange cards (just so we can say we received one!).  I made this one to fit Carolyn’s CBC challenge – what no red. The blue wire and bead heart is recycled from a previous wedding invite. It may be recycled again once Valentine’s day is over.

Ink: dark blue Marvy pen
Stamps: Michael Strong’s Cloisonné Mosaic Frame, PapertreyInk Out on a limb sentiments
Other: blue ribbon, gems, wire and bead heart
