New Twinchies Challenge blog!

Good morning Lovelies! I like to give a very warm welcome to my new followers! Hope everyone had a fab bank holiday weekend enjoying the gorgeous sunshine?

I have some exciting news! As you can see there is a new Twinchies challenge blog! The lovely Beverley Tonk from Beecrafty http://www.beecrafty.net/ had heard that Show us your Twinchies was ending this month and thought there needed to be a Twinchie challenge blog! I couldn't agree more lol! So here we are! http://twinchieschallenge.blogspot.co.uk/

Beverley asked me to be on the DT!

Of course I jumped at the chance, I just love the little things!

The first challenge is "Free for all"

so you can create a Twinchie in any style, colour or theme you like.

Twinchies are 2 inch by 2 inch square,

you can use whatever medium you like?

My first I dipped my card into melt pot and stamped using the
fabulous Circles cluster set from http://designsbyryn.com/
I inked it with gold brilliance before stamping into
the molten utee,

The flowers were chip board bits I've had years,

so into the melt pot they went too,

I added Yellow dew drops to the centers.

I used part of the "Dandelion" stencil from Sweet poppy
with dimension stencil medium also from Sweet poppy, while
Wet I chucked on some clear micro beads and a bit or glitter.

Gelli plate background, Jofy minis stamp by Paperartsy,
I had to cut and piece together this one as it was too long,
you can see the join lol!
I coloured it with Spectrum Noirs.

Same Gelli plate BG with free stamp from Craft stamper mag.
Coloured in with Spectrum Noirs and washed over with Dustress stain.
Thank you so much for visiting, please come along and join in?
they are so much fun to make, they can seem a little daunting to start with,
but they soon become very addictive.
Have a great day :D xx
