I just love this reindeer, who says reindeers are just for Christmas time.

And some Christmas Cards, time to start thinking about doing some overseas cards.

Heather one of my friends was showing me how to multi stamp, to create a pattered paperback ground, then finish by adding the same stamp mounted with foam tape to the middle of the card.

I will try to keep up to date with my posts.

Hi, It's WOW Chipboard blog time again.

 I was having a play the other day and wanted to add texture to a chipboard flourish, when I remembered about my Cuttlebug machine which was sitting under it's handmade owl cover.

  I sprayed the chipboard flourish first with a pink mist, then I placed the flourish into the Swiss dot embossing folder and ran it through the machine.

This works well with damp chipboard .

 When the Flourish was dry, I used Liquid Pearls on every dot from the embossing folder, so in the end I didn't use the embossing to add texture but really, but as an template for the placements of the liquid pearls.

I used: Caitlin Flourish C1199

Thanks Gilly oxo
