Leonie's Mixed Media and Stamps

Good Morning Folks,

I am so excited to be part of Leonie Pujol's Design team and would like to thank my fellow team members for making me feel so welcome.  As I am still very new to the world of blogging, I am learning as I go and trying to balance my time between crafting and adding to this blog.  I will continue to add tweaks until it is a bit more ship-shape and I would like to thank Katrina who has been so encouraging and supportive.


Now on to some exciting stuff that is happening today.  On Hochanda there is a fabulous deal on a 'One Day Special' for some of Leonie's previously released products which launched last night at 9pm.  So far there has been two live shows with 3 more still to go at 12pm, 4pm and 7pm today.


Here are a couple of samples I have made for these shows. 


Using From The Heart stamp set I have stamped the big heart in red Versafine ink, heat embossed with clear powder, cut it out and overlaid it on a couple of die cuts from the Mixed Media Collection, Bark Texture.  Added heart embellishments are die cut in fabric and Kraft card and they are from Lots of Love Mixed Media die collection. Finally I have added a sentiment from the Hey There Dreamer stamp set.

 


On the following card I have used one of Leonie's embossing folders from a previous show to create a background by inking it with Versamark and running it through my die cutting machine with a piece of black card and while the ink was still wet covering the card with a black holographic embossing powder and heating.  The flowers are from the Beautiful Bloom stamp set.  I have stamped them, heat embossed with black powder, painted with metallic watercolour paints, cut out and mounted on to the background.



That's it for today.
 
Thanks for visiting my blog
