Good afternoon all. Today I'm packing china....not my favourite task and I'm such a hoarder!!
Sadly this weekend I've experienced the seedier side of crafting...I feel so sad that a challenge blog that was started by a crafter, for all crafters and which I had nurtured for so long in memory of it's founder has disappeared in a cloud of deceit and lies!

It's my turn to provide some inspiration on the Stencil Sunday blog today, I hope you like what you see.
I decided I needed a new bookmark, so I created this using a leftover piece of the mood board I'd made for the Big Bloom Factory blog hop earlier this month. To make my mood board I used the Big Bloom Factory large stencil and Big Bloom Factory stamps. I die cut my piece from the board and mounted it onto a larger die cut. Using the same distress inks as I'd used previously I stamped some added texture using stamps from the Mixed Media Elements set. My sentiment is from the Bold Sentiments: Explore set, I stamped onto tissue paper and used medium gel to attach.
I love losing myself in a book so this is being put to good use.
Hi Carol, oh that is so sad, I have noticed a few challenge blogs have gone! Good luck with the packing too, I bet it isn't long now before you move into your new home. A fabulous card, love the stencilling!

great work carol - I've not heard what happened but it sounds sad xx
ReplyDeleteA fabulous bookmark Carol, great colours and pretty stamps.
ReplyDeleteI didn't realise that the challenge blog had disappeared, I left a couple of months back - such a shame but I'm not totally surprised!
