Hello, it's time for a new challenge at Try it on Tuesday and for this fortnight we have Letters or Numbers of you can even use both if you want.
I've got a lot of birthdays coming up so a great opportunity to use one of my favorite stamps, the sassy lady from Dyan Reavely's Couture set. I stamped the image with Black Archival and heat set using clear EP before colouring the background with Oxide inks in Fossilized amber, Worn lipstick and Wilted Violet, using a blending tool and then spritzing on lots of water. I also coloured a piece of card with Wilted Violet and stamped and fussy cut the coat, hat and bow. My numbers are rub-ons and the sentiment is a freebie from Creative Stamping, bought just for the sentiment!
The rest of the team have some great inspiration for you, so please pop over to the main blog for all the details.
Have a great day,
Avril
