Hand Made by You for TioT

Hello and thanks for visiting today.
There's a new challenge over at Try it on Tuesday and for this fortnight the theme is  Hand Made by You -  so nothing digital or shop bought.

I've finally managed a play with  my new Tim Holtz crayons in the pastel colours.  I started with a piece of pearlised card that I embossed in the Cuttlebug.  I scribbled Spun sugar, Tumbled glass, Shaded Lilac and Cracked pistachio and blended with my fingers.  I used a Tim Holtz Tattered floral die for the shabby roses and the Thinlits Garden Greens.  The  'Wishes' sentiment was cut from the Thinlits Handwritten Holiday die set.

The rest of the DT have some wonderful Hand Made inspiration for you, so please pop over here, where you will also find all the challenge details.

Thanks again for popping by,
Avril xx
