BELLI CHALLENGE # 35 - METAL EDGE TAGS or FAUX METAL




What is the Belli Challenge you ask?


Each week, I try to give us a challenge that will use things we have lying around our stamp rooms! With a constant flow of new things coming out, I tend to forget about the other things I have and they quickly become clutter!


This Weeks Belli Challenge is to use your METAL EDGE TAGS and if you do not have any of those TRY the FAUX METAL technique. You can embellish anything or stamp on anything with your Metal Edge Tags or FAUX METAL. I used mine here as our focal point.


Here is what you need to do...Make a completed project embellishing your work with your METAL EDGE TAGS OR FAUX METAL project. Share the link here in the comments linking to my Blog and CBC35. When you post to Splitcoaststampers or to your Blog, be sure and put CBC35 as the KEYWORD and mention of the challenge - with a link!


I will do a random drawing for all participants and have a special pack of assorted Designer Papers for the winner! The winner of last week's Challenge was SUSAN HACKNEY check out her beautiful project here. Susan, please contact me at adickinson@wi.rr.com and I will mail you your pack of DP. Thank you for participating!


Here are the details of my card:
Stamp Set: My personal design Child of God

Cardstock and Ink: Really Rust, Sage Shadow, Basic Black, Matte Kote finish White, Western DP (I think)

Accessories: Styled Silver hodgepodge, Earth Element Buttons, Metal Edge Tags, Hemp, Paper piercing Tool, Mat Pack, Zig Painty, Copics - see above
