Blog Hop Saturday, Dreamweaver/Woodware


All of this week, the Dream Team and the Woodware UK teams are celebrating the release of the new holiday designs from Dreamweaver Stencils. Of course, no celebration is complete without prizes...and there are some fabulous ones for those commenting on both sides of the "pond". 

Each team will be providing the opportunity to win four prize packages of stencil designs, perfect for the holidays. Just leave your comments each day on each players' post as well as the Dream It Up! and Woodware UKblogs, and the Dreamweaver and Woodware Facebook pages. Two random commentors  will be chosen from the batch of weekday posts, one each from the DW and WW Facebook pages, and from the big hop on Saturday...from each side of the pond!* That's a total of eight prize packages up for grabs! Here's what you could win:

For today's post I selected the Heart Ornament stencil (LJ 921), this is a very versatile stencil as many of you who have been checking the blogs can attest. I used Memory Mists for the background, I started by spraying the stencil in a box using Green Tea (19) and Iridescent Gold (MM25) Memory Mists then taking my paper and placing it on top of the stencil and brayering. I then set the paper aside to dry. When the background was dry I placed the stencil on top and taped it on all 4 sides and then pasted the image with Dreamweaver Gold Metallic Paste (DGP). I let the paste dry and then mounted the image on black paper and then mounted that on a green card. This card was fun I love the way the Memory Mist background turned out. the fun thing about the memory mists is that no card is ever the same.



Don't forget to leave me some holiday cheer as you move on to the other players for today:

Remember to follow along with the challenges on the Dream It Up! andWoodware UK blogs for more prize opportunities, and more crafty inspiration, as well as "liking" DW and WW on Facebook.

*Winners selected must be from USA/Canada/UK only.

  5. Absolutely Gorgeous!! The gold paste, which has a lovely old gold tone to it that I love, combined with your misted background is just so striking and has a wonderful vintage feel!

  7. This is really lovely. I especially like how that background turned out, but , of course, the pasting over the top makes it particularly nice.
