Hello friends -thanks for stopping by today! I am loving the new Spellbinders Handmade Collection by Stephanie Low. Perfect stamps and Dies for any creative person - definitely not limited to paper addicts! Wink:wink!! As someone who has kitted since I was 6 years old - this set appeals to me greatly!
I have stamped a knitted block of five (5) rows of the knitted strip from theYarn Handmade by Stephanie Low Stamp and Die Set using Imagine Memento Inks in Tuxedo Black and three separate rows Teal Zeal. The block pattern has been coloured in pink and the zeal in blue - using Chameleon Pens. The blue knitted strips have been cut/embossed using the co-ordinating dies and the Platinum 6 Die Cutting and Embossing Machine.
The knitted block has been trimmed around the edges and the the blue strips popped up on alternating rows of knitting using Crafty Foam Tape - starting at the top of the block. The layered card front has been popped up onto a card front embossed using the Embossing Folders Tammy Tutterow Designs Horsehair and sponged using Teal Zeal ink and a sponge dauber. All layers have been adhered to a pre-cut white card base using Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L E-Z Adhesive Runner Ultra.
Next I have stamped two lots of flowers using Imagine Memento Inks in Tuxedo Black and coloured using Chameleon Pens and cut/embossed using the co-ordinating Dies. Next they have been adhered to opposite corners. Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L small white 3D Foam Squares have been added under the flowers, each side of the knitted strip.
The sentiment and kitting have been stamped Imagine Memento Inks in Tuxedo Black, coloured using Chameleon Pens and cut/embossed using the co-ordinating Dies. Next they have been adhered to the centre of the card with Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L small white 3D Foam Squares underneath on each side of the knitted strip.
