ATC and Tag

Sunday again--this week has just flown by. 

Thank you for visiting Jumbled Crafts, it is always nice to know people are popping in.

Last night I had to sleep with earplugs in my ears as the wind was rattling something in our guttering. Vic said he never heard it--I am coming as a man next time as they don't seem to hear anything once they are asleep.

The theme this time at Moo Mania is to use embossing powder and Rosie added a wonderful video to show a technique I had never tried before. It involved stamping into the melted embossing powder

I made this ATC as you don't have to make a Moo or even include one. I had hoped to include one but it hid the embossing so I had to make it smaller.

At Tag Along this week we are invited to show our favourite technique

When ever I see this theme for a challenge I immediately think of egg shells. I just love this technique and the way no pieces are ever the same. There is a great tutorial here though I didn't use alcohol inks this time I used Dylusion Sprays and some Gold Glimmer mist.

I started with a circle and covered it in glue then added crushed eggshells to cover it over. Then I laid it onto a piece of paper and sprayed. Next I used the paper with the colours that were outside the circle and I covered part of a tag with that. This meant there was a white round shape where the eggshell circle had been so I offset that to look like a shadow. It looks quite sparkly in real life but not on this photograph unfortunately.

Have a great day everyone

Love Chrissie x
