Hello and thanks for stopping by!
When I was constructing my new blog, one of the themes I definitely wanted to bring along from the old blog was Finish it Friday, this is where I rummage through my box of scraps, part finished odds and generally unloved bits and bobs, and then I create something.
So this is Finish it Friday 1.
I started with a couple of straight forward bits...
I have no idea where the embossed panel came from, I must look and see if its a folder that I do actually own, because I love my finished piece.
The stamped panel has been in the box for a long time, the stamp is Snowdrops from the Wildflower set, can you see the splash mark at the bottom?
So I simply trimmed the grubby bit off the bottom and re-edged with sharpie pen.
I used one of my favourite Clarity text stamps, but only wanted the Best Wishes, so left the 'Love and' uninked, theres nice spacing between the lines on this stamp so its easy to just ink up in part.
I wrapped a bit of twine around the bottom of the panel, and then added it to the embossed piece, all mounted up onto an A5 card blank ready to give away!
That's all for today, come back soon!
Now Maria, you have really made me feel guilty when I think of my 'bits box' and all those unfinished projects! This is a fabulous recovery of your splash marked original. Love the deep embossing on your card - which DC machine did you use? xx
ReplyDeleteNo idea which machine, i have got grand calibur, cuttlebug, ebosser and Gemini, I now mainly use Gemini at home though.��
DeleteLove this Maria you have given me food for thought. Will be watching for more of your blogs
