Graphite Ribbon & Gasket





I was the lucky recipient of some Graphite Ribbon & Graphite Gaskets. I love the versatility of them and the possibilities are just endless. It is okay to emboss (dry & heat), stamp & paint it.

Until next time ........

It's been a while

Hi Everyone
I am sorry that it has been a while since my last post, however that doesn't mean that I haven't been creating.
I have also been accepted into the Design Team for Christina's Crafts which I am really excited about. Thanks to Christina I now have a purpose to my craft and it gives me a reason to create more. So a huge Thank you to her for that.
I will be back shortly to post some of the creations I have done lately.

Thanks for stopping by.

Metallic ATC & Handmade Flowers


A yahoo group I am in (Dream Create Inspire) is holding a Metallic ATC swap. For my contribution I used rust paint for the background & around the edges I used Wave Copper Foil Tape. The flower is my own creation inspired by Reese Dixon. I used white Organza & coloured it with Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist.
