Hoe Down

Morning lovely friends and followers and thank you for visiting xxx

Really must get a jig on but before I do I'd like to share

this commissioned card with you.

The lady commissioned it for her daughter who was having a 

Hoe Down for her 40th Birthday.

Have a great day one and all and sending a hug to anyone

who could do with one.

Crafty Catch Up

Afternoon lovely friends and followers and hoping that this post finds you well.

Thought I'd do a bit of a Crafty catch up and get back to some serious blogging.

Thank you for all your terrific support and will be hoping over to leave some 

bloggy love xxx

Over the past couple of weeks I have been experimenting with some messy stuff

including some delicious embossing folders and paint and what a lovely fun

time I have had.

Sharing some of my most recent creations - hope you like.

Love and crafty hugs Judith xxx

This first one started off as a boring piece of patterned paper - this was

inked with twinkling H2Os then embossed with a Sheena Douglas

Taste of India embossing folder then burnished with pebeo gilding wax

The Cream background is linen card embossed with a Sheena Douglas

"Oriental" embossing folder and gilded with pebeo gilding wax.

The panel started off with a piece of Sheena Douglas "Oriental" paper

which I painted with twinkling H2Os then embossed with from memory

Coutre Creations Sunshades embossing folder - then painted some more and gilded with

pebeo gilding wax.  

The fan is tattered lace.  The flower is a Desire Quilling flower - these quilling dies are fab.

I would like to support the following Challenges -

• Crafty Gals Corner -  E2 - #6 Anything Goes
• Inspiration Destination - F- #20 Always Anything goes
• Penny's Paper-Crafty - 3E -  #214 Embossing
• Wonderful Wednesdays -  SIO -  Always Anything Goes 

This Book was made by using Black Card and one of Sheena Douglas'

"Oriental" Embossing folders.  The Embossed Card was then coloured

with inks and gilded with pebeo gilding wax.

This one is a canvas on which I used an Imagination Crafts Stencil with

sand texture paste - the paints are pebeo acrylic and I also used some

gilding wax.
