I am chuffed to announce that I was lucky enough to be chosen
as one of the new Dt members for Try it on Tuesday Dt..
make sure you pop across here to see all the wonderful Dt inspiration..
so here is my first piece ..the challenge is lets get inky :
I started with my favourite a manila size 8 tag
and lots of inky yumminess
and spritzing on my craft mat
dipping and drying..repeatedly
then added some crackle stamping using metallic distress stain
the sentiment again stamped in DI
and mounted on some rusty wire
I added a flower made from my new poinsettia die.
...this is yummy
and have stamped music on some and coated the top petals in
loose rock candy glitter
I had to didn't I?
and some spirals of rusty wire
so make sure you pop across here to see the other DT makes
and maybe pop in an inky entry yourself!!
