Good morning and welcome to the second day of Christmas.....
On the second day of Christmas Barbara gave to me....a brilliant new stamp and stencil set...
I hope you like it...
It all started with some red card, the stencil and my eBosser....remember your stencils work so well with embossing machines.
I used coordinations card so that I could then do some sanding....
This helps the image to pop and stand out better..
I then used my embossing tool on the reverse of the card...
I stamped the large round stamp on to white card and the centre part onto red card using VersaMark ink.....these were then embossed with detail gold embossing powder. I then cut them out and layered them up...
Some matting and layering and four gold Card Candi.....plus some white highlights with a pencil...
Here is a closer look....
I hope you have a good day...I am just off for a long walk with Tess....it really makes me happy....the sun is shinning and the birds are singing...
Tomorrow I have workshops in Hazel Grove...I really look forward to seeing this lovely group of crafters....we have been together for quite a few years now....and it is so good to have friendship and Trust.....you see Trust is a small word but a very important one....and it seems to be going out of fashion....
So please be kind to each other today...
Crafty hugs ,
Jo. xxxx

Loved this when I saw it on Tv. Wondered if it was coordinations or red parchment. ..and now I know. Have a great day at Hazel Grove, Jeanette xx
Thanks Jeanette, hope you are feeling a bit better....x
a great make Jo - love this - still asking hubbie about the august clarity cumbria - still getting no response!!! Will get to know soon hopefully. If i am allowed out to play my mum would dearly love to come too - would their be a place for her? Rachel x
Thanks Rachel, and yes I will keep two places ...fingers crossed that hubby says yes....what do we need to bribe him with? ....x
love what you have done with stencil here xx
Really love the embossed detail of the stencil, must give it a try. I also just caught up with yesterdays blog and the window guilding is stunning. Certainly need to play with both these techniques. XX
