Friday Freebie - Altenew Magazine

Hi Everybody,

Today I am offering you the very first magazine that Altenew did with Practical Publishing a good few years ago.

In this pack there are stamps and matching dies as well as a stencil to create the background.

Inside the magazine there are lots of ideas, on what to do with the set, as well as some papers for you to use either as they are or with the dies. Your choice !!

If you would like to have this in your own stash then  all you need to do is leave me a comment at the end of this post with your FULL NAME

Be sure to come back and check if it is you that is shown as the winner over the weekend and you will then have 72 hours in which to claim it.

More tomorrow ...

Braided Ribbon

 Hi Everybody,

This pretty Lilac card is created using the Landmark Collection from a good few years ago so if you already have t then maybe it is time to get it out again for another airing

The main feature on this card though is the braided ribbon that I have added around the heart shape.

It is a technique that I videoed 11 years ago when Griff did all my filming, My goodness how things have changed since then, but I thought that this too would be good to get out once again.

I am sure that lots of you may have tried this in the past and then forgotten about it. 

Many things that we do come to the same conclusion and that is such a shame as many of them are really lovely ideas.

This is the current video on this idea .. 

.

But I am also adding in the original video that was done 11 years ago


More tomorrow ...
