Challenge #223 Heat Embossing

Hello Everyone

Shirley here this week with another challenge for you all.  A few challenges back we were set the task of using an embossing folder on our creations so this time around I want to challenge you all to using "heat" embossing on your project.  To demonstrate I have created a cute little card using the "Swallowtail Butterfly" stamp from Stampin' Up.  I have embossed the stamp in white powder and then inked over it to make it POP!!  Hope you like it :

Gail

Here's my card where I heat embossed the greeting.  

Darlene

After stamping onto a Vellum panel using Versamark, I embossed with a

dark green embossing powder, heat set ... then colored my image on the flip side of the vellum.

Tina
I added a heat embossed embellishment to my layout (the #1 ribbon stamp)

Karrie

I also made a birthday card, a giftcard holder, and stamped and heat embossed the sentiment.

Beth 

I used the Floating Reinker Technique and heat embossed in black.

Khristina

I heat embossed the area around my journaling box in order to help tie the journaling into the rest of the layout and add some additional dimension. I even have a process video up for this on 

my You Tube channel.  Please come check it out!

For this week's card, I am sharing a card that I made with Ken Oliver's Color Burst Powders and an embossing resist technique.  Stop by my blog to see all the details!

Thank you for stopping by to see what the beautiful ladies on the Design Team have created this week to show case "heat" embossing.  I can't wait to see what you create now so don't forget to add your entry below using the inlinkz.

Challenge #203 - It's Christmas Time

Hello Everyone

Shirley here with a timely challenge, since Christmas is almost on our doorstep once again!  Where does the time go but? Seriously I am sure it was only Christmas time a couple of months ago!!  I wanted to keep my challenge very simple this month as it is such a busy time for everyone.  So "Christmas" is the theme and all you need to do is create something using that theme.  Whether it be a card, a layout or something off the page!

I have choosen to make an OTP project this challenge and have created a quick & rather simple little Christmas angel using a magnolia stamp, two different doilies (one store brought the other a Cheery Lynn die), some Stampin' Up inks and some bling!  Hope you like her.

Karrie

 Here is my idea for tagging Christmas Gifts that are sooo big regular tags get lost

 (and using up old stash at the same time!!)

Majo

A Stencil for the background and then just lots of layers with Tim Holtz dies :)

Lori

It was hard for me to decide what to do for this challenge - tags, a Christmas layout, more Christmas cards. In the end, my need for more Christmas cards won out!

Amanda

I had tons of cards to make this year and this is one design I used.

Now don't forget to link up below so we can all see your gorgeous creations too.  Have fun and happy creating!
