Hi ya. well it's a bit late but hey I was up until 4am last night. I was at Asda at midnight buying New Moon and of course I had to watch Twilight & New Moon (so sad I know) but I wasn't the only person at Asda at midnight waiting for NEW MOON. ;0)
Now on to the card, over at Ginger Snap Creations the theme is a colour challenge, Copper,Rust or ginger and I have made a copper metal card and some copper glitter for good measure lol. I am also entering this for Quirky Crafts whose theme is Flowers.
Here you can see the close up of the double flower with copper brad. I really like the mesh flower it adds to the already existing texture.
On to my Trinchie which I am also entering for Ginger Snap creations same colour theme of Copper, Rust & Ginger. This is also for Something Completely Different (SCD) challenge which this month are 'Trinches' and this week is 'music'. I made this on Sunday and having been to church I was thinking how the hymns moved my soul and this is how the sentiment came to mind.
You can really see the texture here of the rust I love this technique. I have used some DP then distressed with DI, die cut the lock & Key from copper then aged with Distressing powder. I really am happy with the effect I love this technique. I hope you like these please do go have a look at the challenges and the DT examples. And I want to hear all about your twilight madness (if I am not the only one that is lol) Love Dawn xx
Items Used:- Cuttle Bug die cut machine, Ef & Tim holts Alteration Die (Sizzix). Copper sheet metal. DP Making Memories (MM) flowers MM Sentiments Cuttle bug die cut & my own. Distress inks & Diistrss powders Tim Holtz (Ranger).
