Hi everyone.
Glad to be sharing today's crafty desk at WOYWW over at Julia's Stamping Ground.
For those of you who are regulars to this blog, and wondering what's been happening please read this Post over here on vale Mike in Oz.
A quick post because I've been crafting with a very dear friend.. how wonderful!!
Using Oxides here blending on top layer of EF for gentle shading underneath then loads of smooshing ink on top as well for real dimensional pop!
Then below is a stencil with blending of Oxides for a wonderfully fun background.
Loved this result .. stencils and inks all supplies are my friend Anne's.. so can't give details sorry!
Rubbing wax on triple embossed craft cardstock.
The oxides were great on gold cardstock here too!! More wet amd dry embossing.
Finished result certainly worth it! Used silver rubbing wax on dragonfly.
Finished Desk. The plain brown check were simple dry wet embossing combo. Inked up top side of folder and emboss really well with number of passes through cuttlebug to give more dimension.
Card made with Washi tape, peel offs and scored lines. China H.B. die is triple cut in red gold and top layer is washi, all slightly offset for a shadow effect.

Thank you to all who pop over and say hi.
You really do bless my heart.
I pray God may bless yours, also.

A favourite verse in times of trouble but also good for every single day of our lives .
A proverb to live by, for us all:
"The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe."
Proverbs 18:10

Lots of interesting pieces on your desk this week. Very much like the feathery embossed and inked backgrounds.
Oh how beautiful Shaz. I love all of the cards you made this week. The feathery colors are just so pretty. I have lots of washi tape and I’m never sure how to use it. I need to go online and try to find some ideas. You have been in my prayers often my friend. I hope all is well with you.
Blessings,
Betsy
Lots of wonderful eye candy there in those pieces Shaz, and your washi tape card is so pretty too, Cathy x
Oh what fun to craft with a friend Shaz, and you have some amazing results there!! Love love love the deep embossing, and I recognise some of the folders you have used.
Blessings

Morning Shaz. What a fantastic time you are having with Anne. Restful - just what was needed. Popped over to read the post in the link - beautiful. Well done.
Not long now until...
Take care. God bless.

Are you here? Or there? I am so looking forward to next week when, hopefully, we meet up again. Still cannot believe it and have to pinch myself.
Love what you made with your friend - you have certainly used the Oxides in a different way and the results are beautiful.
Too excited to write more - see you soon my friend.
Love and Blessings, Neet 4 xxx
I popped over to read your other blog - sending you big hugs Shaz. Those cards you made are really lovely, I especially like the one of the bid sitting on the reeds. I'm looking forward to meeting you very soon - safe travelling.

wonderful rainbow distress colours there! Helen #1
I love the use of the oxides - I've never tried them but am very tempted to buy some now I have seen your great results. Thanks for sharing. Have a great week. Caro x (#35)
looks like you have had a lovely time with your embossing folders. They often get forgotten about. Karen 21
Hi Shaz, there is certainly a lot of interesting items in your post today. The cards are all beautiful. Have a lovely week Heather #11
Hello Shaz. I Love all the different makes on your table.. I have never seen oxide inks here.. have to have a look..Loz
Fabulous inky projects! Love my oxides! Lovely walking area you have near you. I am currently virtually walking the city of Sydney! On Walking4Fun. Happy WOYWW! #33
Oh Sharon, I'm so happy to hear that you are crafting with a dear friend! I am loving what you ladies have been up too, such beautiful inkiness! I did not realize that was washi tape on the card, it is stunning and so CASalicious! What a beautiful photo of a beautiful day and beautiful scenery!! You do live in a beautiful area of the world my friend. Sending lots of love, hugs and prayers your way! Brenda
good to see you crafting again, such pretty cards, my favorite is the one with the dragonfly, I love the colors!
Good to see you rocking the Oxides! Love the effect against the gold cardstock. I'm not really getting into Oxides, I don't seem to be able to get the effects that I see others achieving - more practice needed I think! Have a happy week, TFS, Jo x #36
Gorgeous projects, Shaz. I love what you've done with the Distress Oxides and the embossing folders. Fabulous colours too! That verse from Proverbs is one of my favourite verses, too. I used it in one of my little books (the mixed media one I did about a walk in the woods that we did with some Christian friends).
Happy belated WOYWW,
Shoshi #37
Beautiful work Shaz and I do love your snippets card, very pretty! You've been keeping busy before your trip it seems.
Love and hugs

Lovely to see the different ways you have used the Oxides, love the effect on gold card. Thank you for sharing WOYWW, creative wishes Tracey #8
Great pieces of art...fabulous.
Beautiful cards. Thank you for joining us at Word Art Wednesday. I would like to share with you God's Word in John 8:12 which says, "When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” God's Word is timely and timeless. Have a blessed weekend!
