Hey there!  It’s a fabulous new challenge and this week we’re featuring Tim Holtz products.  As I’ve said before, I sometimes get a bit intimidated by TH stuff – I’m not an inky type really.  However, I LOVE his stencils and this Autumn Leaves one is gorgeous!  I used a few different Distress Inks to give a variety of shades on the leaves and the Thank You sentiment is cut using the Thank You die from Avery Elle.  I added a border strip to add a touch more detail to the design and finished off with a few sequins from Pretty Pink Posh.

Avery Elle – Little Minds

Hello everyone – today on the Avery Elle blog I’m sharing a card using an awesome set called Little Minds designed with teachers in mind.  I stamped the apple image with Versamark and heat embossed it in white before colouring it with Zig Clean Colour markers.  For the background I used the Pierced Rectangle dies to create a subtle background texture and used some Lemon Grass pigment ink to sponge a small area and placed my die-cut apple over the top.  I mounted the panel onto a Lemon Grass notecard (can’t live without these now!!)
