Sunday, January 4

Black and Gold!

Tag 0109 Talk about the hangover from hell ... that is the last time I binge drink ever! I wasted the entire day on the first of January in bed due to too much drinking. That is a wasted 24 hours of valuable crafting time. And I have been playing catch up ever since!

So my New Years resolution is no binge drinking ... ever! I am just too old!

OK - now I have recorded that for prosperity ... more about the tag. Well it is black and gold which is the theme for this week's Sunday Stamper and I have embossed everything on it which was the brief for this week's Penny Black Saturday challenge.

All the stamps used [apart from the Penny Black Tag 0109b one :0)] are Stitchels and I have made all the flower embellishments using Claudine Hellmuth sticky backed canvas ... I painted it black, embossed it ... yup embossed it  ... with gold ... mounted it onto aluminium sheet and then cut them out and moulded them around each other.

If you have n't tried the canvas sheets yet - you really need to ... I totally love them!

This is just amazing - the canvass is something I haven't heard of before - your results with it are stunning.

I agree on the hangover bit - binge drinking takes away the following day - not good !!!
