Hi there folks, how's your week going? Its still lovely and warm here, perfect weather for my week off work. Did you see the fabby Splodgeaway shows on C&C yesterday? Tom and Hazel did some stunning demos and they also launched a great new product - Splodge Board, a new substrate that takes all kinds of mediums beautifully. I was lucky enough to be able to make some samples for the show and I decided to make some quick and easy Christmas decorations,this stuff is really sturdy but very light too.
The little gingerbread man was coloured using distress inks, SplodgeBoard takes the ink beautifully. The chimney and grandfather clock were coloured with Graph'It markers, again the markers worked a treat on the shapes. I added some gold to the clock with a gold kryon pen and added some flock and glitter to the snow on the Chimney. I used my cropodile to make some holes for the gold thread and it punched through the Splodge Board really easily.
I'm entering these in the following challenges:
ABC Christmas : Q is for quick
Chocolate coffee and cards: sweet treats
Crimbo Crackers: Its snow business
Jingle Belles: tic tac toe (Glitter/ red or green/Santa)
Simon Says Stamp: anything goes
Thanks for popping by,hope to see you again soon
