FACEBOOK FREAK by Fran Chalmers

Hi everyone!

Today I have made a tag. 

To make the background, I used a piece of the weird plastic foam you get as packing in Amazon deliveries! It made a great pad to use to put ink on and gave a great texture! I used distress inks in Spiced Marmalade, Tea Dye and Gathered Twigs.

 Once I was happy with that, I stamped the main image, and around it I stamped some background stamps for interest, then went round the outside of the tag with Gathered Twigs distress ink.

I stamped the main image on thick paper, coloured it and fussy cut it out.

I stamped the sentiment and cut it up, then stuck it onto the tag how I wanted it placed, having gone round the edges with Gathered Twigs.  I added an eyelet at the top of the tag, and put some ribbon through it to finish it off.

Hope you like it!

MY FAVOURITE HUMAN by Fran Chalmers

Hello everyone!

Today I have made a card for a boy or a man (or a girl!) which I hope you like.

 First of all I embossed the circuit board a few times on black card with silver embossing powder

I then stamped the robot on thick paper, coloured him in and fussy cut him out

After I had cut the robot out I stuck him on the black card and added a sentiment, which I mounted on silver card.

I then used fabric paints to add colour to the circles at the end of the wires.  Once they were dry, I mounted the black card onto silver card, and then onto a blue card blank.

Stamps Used:

Futuristic circuit board 19153

Whimsical Scale 19912

Other Items Used:

Silver card

Blue card base
