Moving Along with the Times (MAWTT) Challenge blog theme Swirls and or Curls

Hi My Crafty Blog Friends

How has the week been for you so far? It has been very cold here, sunny but cold. I have been working on colouring the images for the wedding invitations. I have managed to fit in making a few other things as well.

The new challenge starts on the Moving Along with the Times Challenge Blog the theme this time is Swirls and or curls.


I have had these swirl stamps in my collection for a long time and this was the first time I used them. On a piece of white card I stamped the swirls with Perfect Medium and heat embossed them with a gold powder. Then I used Distress ink to colour the page and finally I spritzed it with water and patted it dry with paper towel. 


I then created a topper with some of the butterfly dies Sue Wilson designed a while back. 


I hope you will join in with the challenge it runs for two weeks. 

Happy Crafting 

Hugs Jackie
