happy weekend my friends!
here's a fun little shelf sitter I made a few weeks ago for the Collin's event in Florida...
I wanted to show that many different surfaces work great with embossing powders...
if it can take the heat,
it CAN be embossed!
below you'll see that I've used them
on tim's Sizzix pumpkin...
it's die cut cut from my clearly for art...
that allowed me to heat the pieces & then shape the pieces & make them more dimensional...
you'll see fern green embossing powder used on the letterpress...
and
on the metal hinge clip...
the small tattered floral flowers were cut from clearly for art blackout & embossed with
the orange blossom embossing powder was also used to change up the metal foliage flowers...
that spider stamp inspired the remnant rub sentiment...
BRAVE is a state of mind...
I am NOT brave around real spiders...
I really HATE THEM...
did you notice the remnant rubs on
that I added to the blossom bucket witches hat?
it's a fun way to customize ribbon...
not sure why the background paper looks so light on the next photo...
hmmm...
just ignore it please...
here's a closer look at the faux graniteware technique on the pumpkin & you can see the mini text added to the letterpress...
I LOVE the flourish stamp so much...
that's it for today...
I hope you can take some time to relax this weekend and...
make art!

ps...for those of you hunting looking for
Glue N Seal...
here's the little jar with the brush &
the larger size jar that I use to refill the smaller...
using them together is the best value...
I just love this!!
