Hello friends
Back in the swing of it today, Mondays is supposed to be my day off -
it never quite happens - I nearly always call into the shop!
But I did get to see a friend yesterday and we also celebrated
my mum's birthday last night with a nice meal.
Today's tip/technique is about stamping and heat embossing onto
your die cuts. I've used Labels Four here, stamped with a script stamp and sprinkled
with WOW! embossing powder.
Heat seat with a heat tool.
I used exactly the same technique here with Foliage.
Again possibly a technique you already use so a reminder.

fantastic for drying the washing but no fun doing the ironing!
Take care friends.

Gorgeous inspiration Christine - thanks for the tip.
My tip for ironing when it's hot and sunny is to do it outside - it's the only time I 'enjoy' doing it :o)
Have a fab day.

Morning Christine, thanks for the tip, it's good to be reminded to use other techniques. I do my ironing outside like Debs when the weather is nice too, I can't resist being in the sunshine.

Hi Christine. Thank you for the reminder, it is so easy to forget these simple things. I also iron outside when it is hot, love how I can, occasionally, have the whole lot back in the drawers and cupboards by the end of the afternoon : ) (doesn't happen often though!)Enjoy the sun while you can. Take care.
Hi Christine. You keep reminding me of techniques I used to do but have not done in a long time-thank you.
Love this card with it's muted tones.
Love Val in Spain x

Hello Christine. Thank you for the reminder, it's a lovely way to create dimension and a bit of shine especially on the foliage. I think we might be in line for some thunderstorms. I hope the animals won't mind too much. xxMargaretxx
Morning Christine, Fabulous samples and fabulous tips, thank you.
I enjoy the sunshine, as we don't get a lot of it, I take advantage of it when we do get it haha. Although doing linedancing, as I do, I come out looking as if I've been in a Sauna haha !!
Enjoy your day.
Lots of love from Patricia xx
Good Morning Christine, fantastic tip thank you, the script on the foliage looks gorgeous. Hugs Emma
Doesn't matter how long I've been crafting, I still find heat embossing quite magical ;)
Lovely tag Christine,I would never have thought of doing this,thanks for sharing.

I love that effect on the foliage, thanks for the tip x
A great technique Christine and a lovely project. Anne x
Hi Christine. Yes, I find it a bit sad too, that when the weather is going to be good we think about getting the washing done. Lol. If only it could be self-ironing! Janette X
