Good Morning!
Well I think you can guess by the header that I ended up making some more copies of yesterday's card but in different colour schemes! I have to admit I don't think the red works as well as lighter shades so I shall probably stick to using the lighter ink pads in the future. I have the urge to do make one in yellow as well so I shall probably do that later on today! lol
I would like to enter these into the following challenges:
SIMON SAYS STAMP - CLEAN & SIMPLE
TOP TIP TUESDAY - CLEAN & SIMPLE
BUNNY ZOES CRAFTS - ANYTHING GOES
INK PADS USED -
You can find a list of the products used in the post below.
As promised yesterday I have taken a photograph of my latest craft splurge! I will admit I shouldn't of bought these goodies as now I have no money, but you know when you just NEED something ...
I'm sure you can understand how much I needed these items lol
Before I go I just wanted to share with you a little tip that I came up with myself last night. If like me you only have a Cuttlebug and are struggling to find a way to use the Tim Holtz dies in it then here is a solution! I used the following, starting from the bottom layer, to make my die fit through ...
Plate B
Layer of Cardboard / Grungeboard
Magnetic Sheet
Die
Layer of Cardboard / Grungeboard that you are cutting
Plate C
I had to run it through the machine two or three times but it worked and is cheaper than having to buy some extra plates or a new die-cutting machine. However I am debating saving up for the Vagabond Machine ... but that won't happen for a while! lol
Thanks for popping by & enjoy the rest of your weekend!
HAPPY CRAFTING!
