3 C'S FIRST EVER SKETCH CHALLENGE!!!

Brilliant news!!! My favourite friendly forum now has
challenges, hurray!

So glad Karen decided to start these challenges on 3C's - check it out http://www.charmedcardsandcrafts.co.uk/ .

I love this Kelly Panacci range and all the chipboard elements and the paper are from this range. I cut the scalloped edge with scissors and heat embossed with Funstamps 'stardust' powder. The swirls are made with my favourite Heidi Grace stamps, brads from Dovecraft and the edges are inked in silver.

I really like this sketch and will definately use it again!

Got a new 'toy' to play with tonight. I decided it was time school bought some stash and tools of it's own instead of borrowing mine so I went shopping today. First on the list was a Cuttlebug and some dies and embossing folders, then I got a heatgun and all the gear for embossing, then I thought
maybe a shape cutter would be a good idea, a few stamps fell into my basket, so did some papers, brads, ribbon, glitter and some other bits and pieces. All essentials, you understand! Anyway, before you know it I had spent almost two hundred and fifty pounds - oops. Well, lots of children will benefit from the experience of papercrafting and I start teaching special needs next week on a 10 week enterprise course so they are starting up a small business in.............
