A little bird...

I was playing around with my embossing folders and loved the results of inking this Nellie Snellen 3D embossing folder with  SU River Rock ink.

I mad this video to illustrate the process.

The tiny birds, from Charlie and Paulchen are popped up onto foam tape to add a little definition.

The sentiment was computer generated in Are you freakin serious font.

The code word this week at Addicted to CAS is Birds so this is for that challenge!

 

Christmas Hugs

I have had this little sweater die for quite some time but it appears to be NBUS! SO here is its f irst outing! I found a tiny Sizzix embossing folder.. it's only about 7cms x 5.5cms, but it looks a bit like plaid. I decided to ink one side of it and pop a sweater die-cut through it. I did an additional die-cut to use parts of it for the rib section. It's on a dry embossed snowy backdrop with a tiny Christmas sentiment from SSS.

The challenge at CAS Mix up is to use Embossing folders.

Here is a card made from a die from MFT and an embossing folder from Craft Concepts.

The die set has a separate panel for the bra cup and so I looked through my EFs for a pattern which would give the appearance of lace! This one has swirls which exactly match the contour of the die cut when placed strategically in  the folder. I decided to add a little colour to the image by inking the flat side inside the folder with Archival Brilliance Pigment ink, before running through my Big Shot.

I layered the main part of the bra to give a little strength before popping it onto dimensional pads.

The sentiment was 'stamped' onto the card using the computer as I didn't have this wording in my stash and it is kinda specific... and so true!!

This is also for Clean and Simple on Friday... "Make a card to brighten someone's day!"
