Blog Candy Winner and new ATC


Oops! I forgot to post my first ATC for The monthly swap over at The Stamp Man ATC blog. The Theme this month is "Vintage" so I made this lace pocketbook. It reminds me of one my grandmother had. There was a little flip over rose clasp on it. For my little pocketbook ATC I used TH Old Paper Distress ink on white card the embossed in clear with Aspects of design Lace sheet 1 stamp. I then inked over it with TH Victorian Velvet distress ink. I did the same to the top layer of the purse and put in place. The Rose clasp is stamped using the mini Rose Stamp from sheet Butterfly Angels then embossed with gold. finally I added a spare bit of gold chain for the strap. If you are up for an ATC swap we would love to see your cards for this them. Just link them up at the Stamp Man ATC Blog here. There is also some great inspiration there from some of my Stamp Man Team mates there.

The first candy will start tomorrow and I will post about it then although any comments left on this post will count towards it since it is July. Remember check back tomorrow for all the nitty gritty and picture details.

Well I guess that is all for the night. I will leave you with a picture of our little babies up under the eve of the front door. ........ .......

Aren't they cute....there are 6 of them stuffed in there and they are getting really big fast. in fact they broke the nest a bit today. They are really sweet but they make such a mess of the front door. But just look at those eyes staring at you. I will miss them when they go.

Have a great weekend and thanks for stopping in. Angela
