Today I have my entry for the Indigo Blu challenge to share with you. The theme is Christmas in July - I've used three of their MDF baubles to make some simple decorations.
Here's the three together - they were all made by coating the MDF in silks paint and allowing to dry before stamping the Indigo blu snowflake image on in versa mark and adding embossing powders before heat setting. Here they all are individually.
Simple but I think effective!
I'd like to enter these into the indigoblublogchallenge-christmas-in-july.
Just wanted to show you Lucy's painting and her inspiration too - this is for the simonsaysstampblog -wednesdaychallenge -simon-says-childrens-summer-vacation-challenge
She bought this bird in Germany at the Medieval festival we went to! I had to buy a chicken - not a real one - I have quite a few chickens in my kitchen now lol!!!
Thats all for now!
Hope to see you again soon and thanks for dropping by today!

As you say Rachel your lovely baubles are simple but very effective, a tree full of these would look stunning. I think young Lucy is following in Mummy's artistic footsteps with that sweet painting she has done. Mo x
