Stampin' Up Celebrate Today Slate Heart Gift

By sparklingblackrose
























Hey everyone, hope you are well! I am here with a present I made for my uncle's special birthday-and after visiting today I was very pleased to see it has pride of place in their lounge!
I used a real slate heart and stampin' up stamp which I embossed with white embossing powder. A very simple but effective way to decorate plain slate-although it does get hot so careful not to touch for a while!

I would like to enter this into the following challenges:
Pinspirational Challenges: Anything Goes
Sweet Stamps: Anything but a card
Through the Craft Room Door: Anything Goes
Crafting from the Heart: Anything Goes
Craft Your Passion: Anything Goes
Eureka Stamps: Anything Goes

Thank you for looking and for all your lovely comments!

    What an absolutely clever idea for a gift! I would've never in a million years thought to stamp and emboss onto slate! But I love the way the sentiment pops and how the slate has that wonderful rough-hewn look. This would make a perfect gift for so many different occasions and it definitely deserves that place of honor in your uncle's lounge! Thanks for sharing your inspiring creation with us here at the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge Blog!

Crafty Ribbons/Fiskars LED canvas

By sparklingblackrose
Good afternoon everyone, hope you are well. I am here to share a backlit canvas using my Fiskars tools in a rather unusual way. I took the canvas off from the frame and folded it in half to randomly punch across the front of the canvas. I kept the cuttings for later. I then stapled the canvas back onto the frame. Next I stapled muslin fabric across the front of the canvas. I then added Clermont Cotton Lace across the bottom of the canvas as a border. I then got out my flexmarkers and coloured the punched canvas pieces in three complimentary colours. I then asked tiny gems to the centre of each and glued them randomly like flowers across the muslin fabric.

Thank you for visiting and for all your lovely comments!

Alkaline Trio lyrics mixed media canvas

By sparklingblackrose
I am here to show you a canvas I created using printable cotton, cotton batting, plastic vintage style frame, acrylic paints, die cut foam, metal embellishments, glitters, texture pastes and nail caviar. The lyric fabric I created in a craft program then printed onto cotton, and placed in the frame after I had stuffed the frame with cotton batting.
