Its anything goes at Imagination Crafts

Morning all! How are you? I am very happy today to be starting my third term at Imagination Crafts. I really do love their products and am honoured to still be on their design team. We have a new challenge starting today and as always now the theme is anything goes. If you want to be in with a chance to win the £40 prize you need to use something from Imagination Crafts.

In this piece I have used a stamp set and inkadinks.



I had never used the inkadinks before - this is made using the vintage set and I must say they were really easy to use and come with full instructions and ideas as to how to use them. In this piece I painted with them and stamped with them. To make this I used the gingerbread, ochre and coca inks. I used the leaves decoupage stamp set.

I made the background using the inkadinks like a water colour wash then stamped over it and added the topper made from  the main stamp image decoupaged up.

We had a good weekend - my girlies made me so proud in their BFG production. 



These pictures were taken at the end of the show. Lucy is dressed in her final role as a court police officer and Penny is showing off her tie dyed t shirt from her role as the learner giant. It went so well - and I was proud of my girls both on and off stage. That's drama finished now until after Christmas. I wonder what next year will bring us!

Shaun was lovely and happy yesterday - he had lots of visitors which is wonderful and it really perked him up. Long may it last! 

Hope you have a lovely day and looking forward to seeing your entries into the imagination crafts challenge that you can see here.

Big hugs

Rachel xx
