and more tyvek

I told you that I'd be posting tons of this stuff. It's just so fun to play with. The stamps are both new to me and now they are inked up. The sentiment is CTMH. The fun block print like image is by Toomuchfun. I got it from an etsy seller who is cleaning out some of her stamps. I don't know if I should share the link with you. She has so much wonderful stuff and her shipping is great. Ok, if you have to know, go check out siennamoon's shop.

Supplies used: SU cheesecloth background stamp, toomuchfun image, CTMH sentiment, tyvek, mulberry paper, hemp twine, brown staz-on, chalk ink, kaleidacolor ink.

Tyvek

I'm having fun playing with a new kind of background paper. This is made from Tyvek which is that really tough nearly indestructible paper that you see envelope mailers made from. If you haven't seen this stuff yet, check out the express mail envelopes the next time you are at the post office. It has a really wonderful texture to it. I brayered a ton of this stuff with ink today, so you will probably be seeing a whole parade of cards made with it. I'm thinking this will be the card I teach next week at our stamp club. Not sure if you can tell, but the clock face with the brad in the middle is stamped on transparency and cut out. The rest is stamped directly on the tyvek background. Check out this link if you'd like to play in Embee's tyvek challenge, too.

Supplies used: CTMH stamps, staz-on ink, transparency, tyvek, brayer, vintage twill tape, black brad, kaliedacolor autumn leaves spectrum stamp pad, antique linen distress ink.
