TLC169 Double Pocket Bag...

I created this fun double pocket bag for today's challenge "TLC169" over at Splitcoast. You can find the tutorial for this cute bag here. For a fun surprise, I made up two quick cards to put inside this darling little bag.

I made this for a close friend of mine. I suppose she is going to know it is for her seeing how I personalized it with her name. Ahhh but which Pam will it be...

I will have other fun things to share tomorrow and the Design Team over at Mothers & Daughters Creations have some fun things to display on Wednesday.

TLC158 Embrace Life...

If you like to emboss you might like this challenge & technique. For today's challenge "TLC158"you are to stamp an image onto vellum paper and then deboss it with a stylus. Click here for step-by-step directions.

For my card, I first stamped the images on a piece of vellum 3 x 4 with Black staz-on. After that dried, I turned the vellum over and used my stylus to color in the areas I wanted to deboss. Don't worry the vellum does turn white while you are embossing. Just for a little more fun I added some random polka dots to the piece as well.

Recipe: Stamps: Embrace Life Paper: River Rock, Patterned Paper Ginger Blossom, Vellum Ink: Black Staz-on Accessories: Ribbon

Thanks for visiting!
