TTIC : Collaboration with Dragonflycurls...



Today we have a really special treat for you all... The gorgeous and very talented Eve has organised another challenge for us! And it's sponsored by Audra at Dragonflycurls.
Audra has her own Esty Store and makes these amazing handmade Twilight themed stamps.


Eve arranged with Audra to let us all have a play with these great stamps and came up with great bonus challenge for you all to do...

Eve writes: " What team do you play for? Team Edward or Team Jacob? Are you still loyal to your original team? Or have you switched sides? Or do you play for both teams now? Let's show some love for the boys ladies! Fangs or fur, vamp bite or dog breath? Has the trailer for New Moon maybe changed your opinion of who you used to like? Come on now...Be honest!"

Well this is easy for me...Have always been and always will be an Edward girl...Even if Jacob (Taylor) keeps taking his shirt off ...He's only 17...And shows those really nice abs...He's only 17....And those really nice tanned arm musles...He's only 17...And....Anyway, like I was saying I am an Edward girl! No really I am..Have you see the new Comic Con clips...I nearly had heart failure when Rob took his shirt off! Ummmm... So back to why I am doing this post..I was lucky enough to get this stamp "The Lion and the Lamb" cause the other one was a wolf...and I have no clue to what I was going to do with that being an Edward girl and all...
Am I reminding myself or you?

So here is my card.....

I went for the traditional red, black, white and a bit of silver as well.. I embossed the stamp with silver embossing powder and used that very famous quote Edward says to Bella "And the lion fell in love with the lamb." Everyone knows that quote! And it fits so well with this stamp!

Then I added some ribbon and there you go...

Paper: All Occasion- Gliter Strips, Bazzil
Stamps: Lion and the Lamb, Dragonflycurls
Ink: Versafine-Black, Tim Holtz-Distress Ink, Walnut


Eve also sent us some great word images as well..

For this card I got out my ever faithful Jenni Bowlin paper and borrowed an image I found....
I have never actually done a "Twilight" card before so this was really fun...
