RCC #33



Danielle Daws, one of our resident CAS geniuses, is challenging you to use some twine on your creation this week! Any kind of twine is fine, just be sure to add some to your creation!

Who better to sponsor a twine challenge than Whisker Graphics Divine Twine?! One lucky random participant in this week's challenge, which will run for 2 weeks, will win their choice of 2 spools of twine.
Here is what I came up with this week, using Oyster Baker's Twine from Whisker Graphics, sold here at Ribbon Carousel:


I {LoVe} this Nordic Holiday paper from Basic Grey! I paired it with images from two different stamps sets: In the Meadow from Papertrey Ink (tree, sled) and Winter Wishes (medallion, sentiment) from WPlus9. I stamped the medallion from Winter Wishes in VersaMark without masking the tree because I wanted it to look like the tree itself was glowing rather than having the medallion look like a sunrise or sunset behind the tree. Plus, I really wanted the detail of the stamp to be seen.


The Swiss dots embossing folder from Cuttlebug is one of my favorite crafting supplies and it really helped to give some dimension to the vellum on this card. The remaining images were stamped using A Muse Studio inks in Cranberry and Eucalyptus.

Hopefully you can find some time to relax and make something twiney for this week's challenge - we'd love to have you! For all the details, please visit the Ribbon Carousel Challenge Blog here.

Supplies: Stamps: In the Meadow (PTI), Winter Wishes (WPlus9); Paper: Nordic Holiday (Basic Greay), red cardstock (SU!); Ink: Versamark, Cranberry & Eucalyptus (A Muse Studio); Other: Oyster Twine, Mat Stack, In the Meadow, and Snow Drift Dies (PTI), snowflake rhinestone (Memory Box), Janome Sew Mini
