White Embossing and Card Candi

On the Woodware blog this week we are looking at White Embossing
4
I have used my favourite Bubble Bloom, I know that they are all lovely but I really like Jane's Curly Sue Clear Magic stamp
2
I have stamped and embossed with white powder then coloured in the leaves with Tombow Dual Brush Markers. When you have a coloured card, use a lighter coloured pen as the coloured card will darken the effect.
5
I then added Card Candi this is from the Christina pack, the colours were chosen by Jane. I have attached the Candi with 2mm mounting pads.
3
I have layered the card on some Hairy Manilla and embossed around the edge with the Stampendous Snow Spoonful Kit. The kits are a great way to use Frantage, the elements have all been mixed for you.
8
I have done a second card for you too, with the same stamp,
7
this time I have used  the Venetian Card Candi and Silicone Glue to attach the Candi, can you see my messy bit?
this card I have just layer on the Royal Blue Recycled card.
Now to show you how to do it properly.....

Wall Hanging - The Mirror Crack'd

Woodware are a again sponsoring The Mirror Crack'd Blog this month the theme this time is a Wall Hanging
MirrorCrackd

So here is my first take on a wall hanging, I have used a frame, so I hope that this is okay

12

I have used the Clear Magic Doodle Flower Basket designed by Francoise Read.

1

I have stamped with Bark ColorBox Crafter's ink on Woodware's Mixed Media Card.

2

then I coloured in with Water Colour Pencils and a water brush.

3

next I stamped the image on  a piece of the Clear Scraps 12 x 12 Acrylic sheets with the Fudge Surfacez ink.

4

then coloured the back with Color Solutions in Winter Red and Lemoncello I just sponged them on the back and the added a touch of the

DSCF7087

the Acrylic sheets are easy to cut into the shape that you want and then you can heat them and manipulate them into the shape that you want, great to be able to make the flowers 3D.

6

next I coloured my picture frame with some Crafter's ink Sunshine.

7

and Fire

8

and then wiped it over with a Woodware Wipe to blend it in.

14

For the next step I used a Dutch Doobadoo Mask Art stencil this one is Fabric. The Dreamweaver Copper Embossing paste is a perfect colour to go with the rest of the hanging.

9

I have a slight smudge, but that is fine

 13

The flowers hide it! I love the way that the light goes through the acrylic flowers and reflects on the wall.
So why not play along?

Paper Pieced Christmas

This card is made using one of the new Woodware Christmas stamps JGS196 Rocking horse.
A card made by Kim Reygate using the same stamp inspired me to make a similar one.
I've used the wording on the stamp set to create a text background which has
been stamped onto pink paper.

Woodware Paper Piecing

Kim has used Huge Jingle Bells 
part of the Francoise Collection from Woodware
The huge words are perfect for paper piecing
I added a few snowflakes to the image before I attached any of the fussy cut letters so that they look as if they are behind the writing.

Stamp and emboss the Jingle Bells onto three different pieces of background paper and again on to a large white circle of card.

Fussy cut all the letters from the sheets of background paper and lay them onto the image on the white card before sticking them in place using wet glue.
The base of the easel card has been embellished with flowers punched from the scraps of paper
and branches cut from the Dreamweaver die cut Naked Tree. This was cut from some home made glitter paper.

The bells are part of the stamp set.
