More Bandana







I spent a busy evening doing more Bandana bits. I really enjoyed doing something different. The colours on the photos aren't as bright as the real thing but I was really pleased with my first attempts.

Lightbulb moment

After making these things I didn't have a clue what I was going to do with them. They are all C6 size. Well I knew this stamp would be useful one day ha ha ha!!!

Bandana Technique

This is the first attempt at the Bandana Technique. It is easier to do than I thought although there is still room for improvement - hahaha. Thank you Ang C for pointing me in the right direction



Wax paper and embossing folders

First attempts using wax paper technique as seen in Craft Stamper February issue. Not bad for a first effort I think.



Time


Time is the theme for Claireabelle's tags this month on Crafting Corner. This is what I came up with


Colour Tags

This month the colour on Clutterbucket's swap is yellow and green. I have gone for daffs. The green doesn't show too well but the 2 larger stamped images are unmounted stamps from Elusive Images. I have wanted this stamp for a long time so it was a perfect excuse to buy

Pin Board

This month's variety swap on Crafting Corner by teddytoo is a pin board. After several attempts and plans A, B and C all going out of the window, this is what I came up with. It's a piece of mountboard covered with self adhesive cork. I have stamped swirls onto th cork and hi-lighted with glitter glue. The bottom half is a printed piece of acetate attached with eyelets to form a pocket. There is also some string over the top part which can be used with paperclips to attach. Then all is mounted onto another piece of mountboard which I have coloured and stamped to give a frame. Ribbon at the top to hang.
