Last Indigoblu...

Here are the last of my Indigoblu photographs to show you, I didn't think you would want to see all of them (there were quite a few!)

This was using 'Slap it on'

This tag used 'Gee-Sso Good'

The tissue technique and 'Slap it on'

Thank you Kay for all your inspiration, you were fabulous!

Until next time, Happy crafting, Dawn x

More Indigoblu...

Using fliterglue with stencils.

The finished result is stunning! (Unlike the detail of my photograph)

A few more photographs to come.

Thank you for visiting, Happy crafting, Dawn x

More Indigoblu...

A couple more Indigoblu photographs,

this time adding glitter to your stamped image.

My photograph does not do this justice, it looks gorgeous in real life!

I will put a couple more pics on soon.

Until then, Happy crafting, Dawn x

Indigoblu weekend

Well I have had a very busy weekend. 

It started on Friday evening with the second date of my April workshop, I will add photo's of those cards at some point. Then Saturday afternoon (for an hour) and Sunday morning (a whole three hours) was spent with a lovely group of friends (Kel, Chris and Janet) and fellow crafters at Craftasmic in Taunton, with the wonderful Kay from Indigoblu and wow my head is overfilling with ideas and inspiration (I'm just too tired to have a go, roll on next weekend!) And of course the essential craft retail therapy followed, oops, did all those things end up in my basket?

Here is Kay showing us one of the many techniques shown on the day, that poppy stamp is gorgeous!

A fun day was had by all!!!

Thank you Kay and everyone involved from Craftasmic, I can't imagine the hard work that went into the weekend to make things run as smoothly as they did, I for one had a fabulous time!!!

Thank you for visiting my blog, 

until next time, Happy crafting, Dawn x

Last FF sample

So finally my last sample from the flowering flourish workshop, I know there were a lot but, did you notice I managed to blog for at least two weeks every day!!!

So for my last sample I wanted something different, here is a simple tag.

You can see the 3D butterfly from this angle.

Thank you for visiting my blog,

I hope you have enjoyed seeing my flourish samples, I'm not sure what is coming next as I need to have a play but until then, Happy Crafting, Dawn x

Last two samples from my flowering flourishes workshop then we move on to other things, although you may see the flourish stamp sneaking back in from time to time, so today and tomorrow left.

Here is today's card, I love this ribbon, it's super yummy, it's called striped organdy ribbon and is available from the new Stampin' Up! mini catalogue (available in a choice of three colours £8.95 for 9.1 metres)

Pop back tomorrow to see my last flourish sample.

FF samples 18

This sample is very similar to a previous one but larger, this is for my ladies who like to make large cards, this card measures 8x8 inches.

These buttons are so yummy, they have been sitting in my stash a while, being stroked and looked at and now finally used!

Butterflies....

An A5 pink pirouette card blank stamped with versamark ink and a flourish stamp.

I die cut a whisper white top note die and stamped using the smallest flourish and pink pirouette ink, I embossed a couple of the layers with embossing folders.

I cut a selection of butterflies using a die and punches.

A fold of ribbon added to the bottom layer of the butterflies.

A close up of the details.
