Don’t miss out on your free Saleabration item. This promotion ends tomorrow. Tips and Techniques: I love the emboss resist card above with the balloons. Emboss the balloons – stamp with Versamark and use white or clear embossing powder to emboss. Then wash some colourful ink over the top. Give the embossed images a little polish…
All set for tonight’s technique class. We’re doing some different techniques using markers this month and one of them is stamping on candles. Cheers, Sue
