LIM–Seeing Double

That’s certainly something I’m doing after staying up late to paint my soon to be craft room…..but before I start again, I had to make a card for the challenge on Less is More.
It’s a one layer week and Chrissie and Mandi’s examples on the blog are absolutely beautiful.  So I’ve tried to make mine as fancy and used a bit of gold embossing powder to make this very simple Anniversary Card using a layout from a previous challenge (Pick a Square):

Now this picture really doesn’t do it justice, so here’s a close up of the image.
To do this, I stamped and embossed the gold heart then masked it before stamping the second heart in Early Espresso.  Finally, I used my SAMJ to position the outline heart and stamped and embossed this.  Here’s a quick tip to get lovely sharp embossing……baby powder!  Each time I embossed, I dabbed baby powder over the card before stamping the image in versamark.  Cunning, eh!
So back to my painting….I will have a craft area by the end of the weekend…I will!!

There’s a long way to go!!!

Bargains at Ikea

Yes…I know!  You can go round Ikea and pick up lots of things at £1 or £2 get to the checkout and have spent 50 quid…..but I had to share these jars!!  At just 95p each I bought them and filled them with my ribbons!!! 

They’ll look great in my craft room.  Now all I need is a craft room .
