Scrap Squad | Scraplifting Emilie Chamel

Scrap Squad have been running a free cyber crop this weekend. This layout is a scraplift of Emilie Chamel...

I have used plain cardstock, inks and stamps... that is all. I've been telling myself I need to incorporate more stamping into my layouts and this one takes it to the extreme!

I've used some Concord & 9th, Crafty Jen Schow and Cocoa Vanilla Studio sets along with Altenew warm grey ink pads. I'm awaiting the Pink Fresh ink cubes arrival in the UK - they are my Christmas present but have been out of stock for sooooo long! When they arrive I'll be able to add more colour.

Having said that I do love a monochromatic layout! There are four shades of grey, black and the white of the card.

Hey Little Magpie are running a challenge this month to use more than 5 stamps on a layout. I've done that and some... I think there are 18 individual stamps used.

Thanks for stopping by!

And delica beads which are more regular and accurate than the better known seed bead. They are slightly more rectangular than round so they line up better. Thread your needle with the weft thread. (The cross ways thread that weaves back and forth.) Pick up the beads... Pass the needlefull of beads underneath the warp (tight length ways) threads on the loom... ...and push each bead u...

Hoppity!

Hoppity hoppity!! :) Hopeful you have arrived here from Fleur 's blog as part of the Crafty Ribbons Easter Hop . If not and you've found yourself here wondering what on earth I'm on about (and let’s face it J you wouldn’t be the first!!) check out the Inspirations site for all the juicy details! My project for the hop is Easter bunting! I cut three templates first - a triangle pennant, a bird and a heart. Then I cut the pennant shapes from fibre ribbon, threaded them on to some 3mm satin and evenly spaced them. I embellished each flag with some beads... I backed the birds and heart on some thin white card and glued them to the centre of the pennants. My supplies list: yellow fibre , pink fibre , lime fibre , 3mm satin , button box , white card, glue, beads, needle and thread. ...
