Helllllooooo.... lovely people. It has been a long, long time since I blogged with the summer holidays, children being off school and a load of other things going on....
But, today I am blogging for Tando Creative and this weeks theme is 'heat embossing'.
As soon as I first discovered heat embossing (too many years ago to mention) I instantly fell in love, and still continued to be astonished with the process to this day.
So for this tag, I used a selection of Tando stencils, the new Andy Skinner Embossing Powder and stamps from Creative Expressions.
I first painted a Tando tag using DecoArt Premium Acrylic Paints in Colbalt Teal Hue mixed with White Gesso. Then heat emboss using a Tando stencil with clear embossing ink and Andy Skinner's Embossing Powder.
I then heat embossed Tando Thins with the clear embossing ink and another of Andy Skinner's Embossing Powder.
Using Andy Skinner's new stamp - Gypsie Queen stamped with clear embossing ink and White Embossing Powder, twice on to white card,cut out then inked one with a dark blue ink and one with a light blue ink. Then over layed them and glued them together.
Stamp the sentiment on to white card using clear embossing ink and white embossing powder. Then inked with the blue ink.
Add some blue wool under the sentiment and add some thread through the tag hole.
The Tando blog is currently under reconstruction and will be back up and running asap.
Thanks for popping by,
