Just a quick post today to share the goodies I won recently at Papercraft Planet.  I commented on their Friday Fran*tage post and won 3 stamps from Stampendous.  And here's what arrived in my mail box this week

How generous is this!  I'll be taking these to Stamp Group tomorrow and hopefully inking them up.


PS.... had major blogger issues yesterday so this post is very late...

SSC Challenge ~ embossing and Wee Memories Summertime.


It's SSC challenge time again... This week our challenge to you is ~ embossing!  Heat embossing, dry embossing, emboss resist - there are literally dozens of ways to enter this challenge!  Come join us here.

this month's fabulous sponsor  ~

Lisa kindly provided us with some wonderful stamps and I got to use two fabulous sets...  “It's a Shore Thing” and “Little Frieda goes to the Sea Shore”.

SSC July Challenge ~ Embossing.


My embossing was done with my ScorPal around the outside edges of the card.  The PP is a digital download which I re-coloured in PSE8.  I stamped the sand from "It's a Shore Thing" with some Versacolour ink and used a dauber to colour it.  Added distress ink for the sea/sky.  The sentiment and the sea gull are also from the same set.   I stamped Little Frieda onto white card and used Copics to colour it and cut it out.    This was a very fun card to make.
I am entering it into Wee Memories challenge  ~ Summer. 

Thanks for visiting... and do join us over on the SSC blog.  You could win some lovely stamps from The Crafter's Meow.

Cheers
