How Many Embossing and Scoring Boards?

Oh! What have I been doing, cos haven't been blogging anything over three months. THREE MONTHS! Forgot my changed password. That was a start.

Ok, here we go: How many embossing and scoring boards are in this photo?



Of course there is a back story for everything... This was up for auction on ebay (UK) and there were couple (maybe more) boards I was after, then thought, well, I'll have a go. Got them. It was sold as "all stuff in the photo, excluding the monitor on the background". No list of items.

Now can't wait the parcel to come.

Will edit this post with more pics when here. Ah, this is fab.

Sort of Vintage, Right?

Lovely stamp from I Brake For Stamps and lots and lots of flowers.

Well, my friends say I'm obsessed with making flowers, maybe they are right, but JUST MAYBE! It's nice to make something, I'm no expert but after watching some tutorials, adding my own ideas also and being stubborn with hot glue gun ("ouch, this is hot", "ouch, burned my fingers again") I've started adding homemade flowers on cards.

Now wanted to add many!





All flowers are homemade :)

Kraft
White smooth card
Card blank
I Brake For Stamps

Paper Roses and More

Paper flower from scraps, that's my kind of thinking :)

1. White pearlized card, some stems and touch of distress ink.


2. Thin paper, almost as thin as tissue paper, flatback pearls


3. White pearlized card, some stems and touch of distress ink.


4. Pearlised paper (120gsm-160gsm).


 5. Pearlised paper (120gsm-160gsm).


6.  Pearlised paper (120gsm-160gsm).


7. Approx 100gsm paper with just a hint of glitter.


8. High quality insert paper 100gsm and light touch of distress ink.


I have made all these and more (need to find pics). Inspirations and boost from

Jak Heath and her tutorials
and
Create a Beautiful Flower with Petal Pairs Punches
and
Lucinda Lucker's Petal Lu

The biggest impact was to see Lucinda's extremely beautiful flowers, never seen as beautiful as her made.

C and Z - The Big Day

C and Z the Big Day


Some time ago I blogged this:
(Picture under this text.)



Yesterday was their Wedding Day.



Got a Bookatrix board and this is what I came up with. Their theme colours were black and white and sure I wanted to follow it. Black and white together makes strong and fabulous impact and it didn't need much of huffing or puffing. White leaves on black and vica versa.

Bookatrix
Papermills Direct A4 sheets pearlized white and matt black
Sizzix cutting board
Silver peel off roses
Black flatback pearls

Challenge or maybe two...

Great Impressions - Celebrations
Crafty Boots - Celebrations
Lexi's Creations - Black & White + ONE other color (silver peel off)
Sparkles Forum Challenges - Monochromatic
