my favourite indigoblu stamp of this year

Good morning lovelies ..... how are you? Back to my regular slot this morning. We had a lovely day at the science museum yesterday - the girls really enjoyed the experiment floor. They had lots of fun trying to make things work - and figure out why other things happened!

Today I'd like to share with you my first make from my MDF man mixed box that I got for Christmas - I've decorated it using the large snowflake stamp from Indigo Blu which is my favourite stamp of theirs from this year.




The box is MDF and I first painted it with geeso good from Indigo blu then used eco tarnished silver paint to paint the whole box. Once dry I rubbed the surfaces of the box with an antistatic bag then stamped the snowflake image in versamark before finally adding WOW powders - white opaque - and heat setting - I also added versa pen around the top and heat set the blobs of white powder that stuck.

I just adore this stamp from Indigo Blu - such a pretty snowflake and I suspect you'll see quite a lot of it in 2014! I only just got this stamp - but it was a must have for me!

I would like to enter this box into the following challenges:

Indigo Bluyour-favourite-indigoblu - your favourite stamp of 2013
WOW powderswowembossingpowder: family - we will keep this box as a family box

Thanks for looking today and I look forward to seeing you again soon - thanks for your comments on my last post - and look out tomorrow for my second blogaversary candy!

Big Hugs

  1. Hi Rachel, I have been missing for a few days too but back now. That stamp is gorgeous and the beauty of it is that it does not necessarily look like a snowflake so it will be very versatile. Your box is beautiful! Well done too on two whole years of blogging! Hugs, Anne x
