Good Morning Stampers,
Now, did you all remember to change your clocks back an hour? I love Autumn cos this means I get an extra hour in bed...or even better, an extra hour crafting :O))
Thank you to those of you who joined in with the challenge last week. This week I have continued with the colours theme and chosen my absolute favouritest song of all time - one that will guarantee to put a smile on my face and give me that happy feeling!
Yes, you will have guessed from the title that the theme this week is BLUE. So, all you need to do is make something, using inks and stamping - adding papers and embellies as you wish, and make it blue (and I don't mean blue as in rude blue LOL). Then, once you have made your creation, please make a comment here and add a link to the place where you are showing your entry.
For my challenge this week I made a card. I used plain white cardstock and embossed it using my Cuttlebug - my most favouritest gadget ever - and then lightly applied a little Broken China over the embossed bits. I stamped the birdy (Inkadinkado) in clear and embossed in clear and then blended Broken China over the top to create a relief image. Using my heavenly Cuttlebug, I then cut out a couple of Nestabilities and matted it all onto some Core-dinations cardstock. The Friends image was created in the same way as the bird, matted onto more cardstock and then 3D'd onto the card. A few sticky pearls and dabs of the fabby new Suze Weinberg Stickles (available here)completed the card.
Thanks for looking and I hope that you will enjoy the theme this week.

Hey Hels, hmnn, I have been thinking about getting around to doing a bag for somebody for xmas with blue roses on. Could you recommend a good stamp and ink for using on that? If I get time, I will post up some tests too! Yours, Richard
