Hi Everyone, I've found a new Christmas challenge over at
Jingle Belle's Blog , and It looks like to be a lot of fun. Anyway the first card I did was for the challenge last week, I missed out on posting it, as I didn't find the challenge in time, but wanted to show everyone, what I've been doing with my new Janome Mini Sewing machine. Great little machine, I had a big sewing machine, but too hard to carry upstairs, and besides its in a cabinet, and no room up here for it, but this little one is a great size, and fits on the shelf and really light. Anyway the challenge called to use inchies as part of the design, well the quilt part of the card was done using inchies, then was stamped with some really little stamps I've had for years, don't remember who they are from.
The second card is for this weeks challenge which is to use acrylic paint, I used the acrylic paint to do acrylic resist for the medallion in the background. I then cut it out with my nestabilities, After I did the resist technique, instead of leaving it white, which it would have been, I decided to use the log cabin smooch spritz on it, very cool stuff and looks really pretty and shiney in person. The greeting card kid was colored using aqua painter and water color wonder crayons that just became available in the new colors. there is a retrofit package of them if you have the old colors already.
Anway then the fun came when I started to make it more vintage looking.
Thanks for Looking.
Cindy
