Woodware challenge - Travel

This weeks blog post is quite apt for me this week....I traveled up to Skipton and Kendal to do a demonstration at Grosvenor Papers and could not get home by train last Monday because of the storm so stayed with Judith from Woodware at her very

welcoming home for an extra day - what a bonus!

I had free use of the fantastic craft cupboard at the Woodware warehouse so was able

to do some class prep and make this 'travel' card for the blog.

The elephant stamp is by Magenta (code CL0001). The text is from a Stampendous set (code SSC1177 butterfly charms), the post card image from the

set is perfect for the travel theme.

The word 'journey' is from a Woodware set (code FRCL026 Françoise alphabet).

I used Stampendous Pearlustre embossing powders in garnet, emerald and carnelian

to stamp and emboss the elephant.

Make the beads with long, slim, triangular shaped pieces of paper wound round a cocktail stick from the thick end to the pointed end. Roll onto an embossing pad and dip into clear embossing powder and heat to make them nice and shiny.

The beads are made from paper and covered with clear embossing powder
