this is what i've spent the last 3 wks working on along with mcc. it was great i've learnt so much. never knew so much could be done with metal, yes i knew about stamping/embossing on it. But this "beginners" course took it to the next level. I know its not perfect & needs alot of practice, but i'm happy with what i've acheived.

wk 2



this is more tecniques we've been doing

mcc



this is wk 1 of the mcc course i'm doing its metal crafting. i've done very little with metal. Had some 4 ages kicking around & didn't know what to do with it apart from stamp on it. i'm having a ball its great fun, so simple yet so effective

anniversary

this is my hubby's anniversary card. I wanted a challenge & boy did i get 1. i spent hours doing this then i thought i f***ed it up after doing all that cut work. i stuck acetate on the wrong side of the work being ashaker card it kinda mattered. Managed to peel it off inc the tape with no damage (phew) & put acetate in  the correct place. its not easy making sure the bits stay in the middle & line everything up straight. Talk about regert what you start. he'd better apprieate it ( i know he will) 
 It will be our 11th anniversary at end of mth. time has gone so quick
more playing with fusion. its really difficult to stamp onto canvas. as in the stuff thats mounted. Still when it didn't stamp properly i just painted over it with acylic paint. perseverance & i got there. this partiular image i found quite easy as its similar to the daisy. its looks alot better than how it was in the advertised pic.
