This week seems to be disappearing quicker than normal - I guess that's because I have a week off work! I've been away for a few days visiting my parents in Lincolnshire which means no crafting but lots of buying of craft supplies! My mum is a card maker so it's always fun to chat about ideas and see the cards she has been making. We also managed to fit in quite a lot of shopping - mainly stamps, dies, inks, adhesives, card, paper, foam for making our own stamps, and lots more besides. All essential, of course.
I have managed to find time today to create a card for this week's challenge at "Less is More" the theme is Masculine. I've spent days thinking about this - below is what I came up with (using some of my new dies).
I used the following:
Uniko Studios Background Builders, Round in Circles stamps
Ranger Archival Black Ink
Creative Expressions Metallic Gilding Wax - Cast Bronze
XCut dies Chronology Cogs
Clearly Besotted Geometric Style Sentiment Stamp.
Enjoy!
A beautiful Card Elaine, love the detail.
