Challenges

Hi there,

I have decided to have a go at some challenges as I've never entered any before....Woo Hoo love a new challenge (He He).

 

I'm going to enter this card which I made using visible image stamp set Beauty is Art.
I have used some textured soft netting and then applied some versa mark ink is places to it.  Then I sprinkled on two different colours of embossing powder and heated it. Used normal embossing for the letters on the vellum (very thick one) and on the torso and word goddess and the greek key border.
The plastic connected by the chain is shrink plastic.  Ripe a shape out and then punch a large hole in it near the edge then shrink it.  now apply embossing powders and heat, when it is cool apply a good coat of glossy accents or diamond glaze and then add some beads.
The red card for the background is by kanban.
Hope you like it....these are the challenges I am entering it in....

Mark and Helen are working so hard producing all these gorgeous new stamps and the company is really taking off now.  They are hoping to have yet more new sets out in the near future...so watch this space....
