New Year, new challenges


It's a bit of a photo heavy post as we have new challenges today at Tag-Along (and ATC's) where I have selected the theme of Love and Romance, at Moving Along With The Times it's stencils and/or dies and it's also the bi-monthly challenge at Love to Craft which is always Anything Goes. 

A tag with a pocket, AALL and Create Roses, coloured with Ecoline pens, the word love from the same stamp set heat embossed with white and some red organza ribbon.


My ATC has been embossed with a heart EF and a red ink pad run over to pick up the raised elements. A piece of cheesecloth, the couple are from a pack of TH ephemera and the words A&C ephemera.


Above for MAWTT, I masked the left and bottom border and used a Lavinia stencil to ink he background, Lavinia Tall Dandelion stamped and colour added with Pan Pastels, Blackberries in the top corner and Some See a Weed


My final share uses a newish to me Penny Black trailing vine stamp, inked direct to stamp with Ecoline pens. The Focal Fairy is Lavinia Lumus who is reaching out to the Flutterbies, I masked the stamp to get just a few of them taking flight. The signpost is Fairy Towns and a few worker stamps across the bottom.
