Just wanted to try it out and see what it was like! I need to invest in a very fine paintbrush to brush away the excess powder!

craftygranny

oooh thats a very pretty stamp i like that. I just usually flick the reverse of the card behind the image to remove any excess. Anti static bags are supposed to be good too. but i'm too tight to buy one lol.

love the invites saveapenny has done you proud .

rainmac hope the craft fair has gone well

Hels - I'm not surprised that you're showing off your invites - they're gorgeous. Elliot is mis-behaving today, he just wont settle and I can't get anything done and I really want a bath - aahhh! Your embossing looks fantastic.

Thanks Kim , most of them are from Sarah's Cards but some are the 20p cheapie flowers from the Calico Crafts sale.
