CSSC165 - Adding Texture (3-29-11)

[StampinAK]

Welcome to this week's Crafty Secrets challenge!

This week we are going to add Texture to our Crafty Secrets projects. Here are a few ideas to get the mojo flowing:

• Buttons
• Cork
• Felt
• Canvas or Fabric
• Dry embossing
• Tulle

The possibilities are endless! The twist this week is to use at least TWO types of texture on your project.

Here is my sample card for this week:

Here is a link to this week's gallery:

Don't forget to use the keywords craftysecrets and CSSC165 when you upload your project, and link back to this thread, so that we can check out your great project.

Happy Stamping!
Cynthia

Today I decided to combine our challenge with my favorite TAG challenge over at Joan's Gardens. I can read all the details on my blog posting HERE if you'd like.

I chose to use the "Sew Special" stamp set for my creation ...

I used several different elements for texture..burlap,crocheted flower and leaf, tag and ticket and a vintage brad. My daughter is due to have a baby girl any day and this will be her card. The stamp is from the small Christmas set.

I made this cute little card with the little boy stamp for my grandson Ryan's birthday card. It will be cute with the 3 ft. kite we got him for his birthday. This was a perfect challenge for me this wk. Here is Mine

I have been in bed with flu for the past 3 days and don't feel right yet. If I feel better tomorrow I'll attempt a card. I seem to feel most uncreative when I'm sick!

I'm late and this is not at all the card I intended to make but I did add subtle texture in a couple of ways!

It's all about the shoes

Thanks for hosting this week Cynthia!
