CHALLENGE #4

Good Morning peeps! it's Wednesday so our next challenge is here.
This weeks Challenge Theme is chosen by our lovely Gina and she would like to see ANYTHING BUT A CARD.
This got me racking my brains, if you check out the fab DTs blogs you will get more inspiration from them.
Our sponsor's for CHALLENGE #4 are:Lynette from Sweet Pea Stamps, with this lovely Ching-Chow-Chou sheet 9


we are also being sponsored by our lovely teamie Amy at
who is kindly offering 3 sheets of Ching-chou Kuik digi decoupage.

Thank you Lynette and Amy for your sponsoring this challenge, So, we are giving away TWO exciting PRIZES for challenge #4 get your thinking caps on everyone, I can't wait to see what you come up with here is mine.





I thought I would make the gift you give the Bride to hold after she and her new Husband gets married, I can't think what they call them.
I used Delight Clay available in my store HERE THERE IS NO MESS INVOLVED BELIEVE IT OR NOT, my hands were mess free, fantastic as you know what a mess us crafters get in and it is so light too.
I couldn't find my rolling pin and couldn't be bothered to pull all the cupboard out, so guess what Iused A CANDLE it worked brilliantly Thank God!
I chose wood mounted Wedding stamp At the Alter by Stampendous avail. Here, such a beautiful stamp and pressed this down onto my rolled out clay, removed it carefully and then cut it to the shape I liked, couldn't find my clay utensils so I used you'll never guess? a Pizza cutter, it worked a treat I then made a whole in it for the ribbon. Put it on the window sill to dry overnight.
I used Metallic Rub-Ons avail. HERE to colour, then added some diamontes, sequiny things for the dress buttons, flowers and lots and of stickles to add sparkle all from my stash!
One last point the black pen lining the image has slightly run as you can see, but that is my fault I got to impatient waiting for it to finish drying.

GOOD LUCK WITH THE CHALLENGE EVERYONE SEE YOU OVER THE CHALLENGE BLOG!!

Luv Teresa x
