Scrapz Design Team blog - Blogging our ART out!

I received the most fantastic surprise parcel from my best mate Tina today - I received two Kaleidacolor rainbow ink pads, two sets of mini wood mounted alpha stamps, a pack of stampbord and two large pots of silver and gold embossing powder (Tina you are sooo naughty but such a darling - thank you so much hun xxxx). I rushed through my work today so that I could find time to have a play this afternoon. Well I am converted - I don't stock the Kaleidacolor pads (yet!) but I am gonna soon as I love them to bits. These purpley and green backgrounds of the first 5 ATC's were all made with these pads and a brayer. So quick, simple and I love the effect. And the same goes for the Stampbord (yet another thing which I HAVE to stock). The Diva ATC was made using the stampbord - images stamp beautifully on it then you can scratch out areas to highlight - I am hooked!
