Hey Ya's! Hope you're all having a beautiful weekend!
Well, a few days ago, I rec'd such a lovely package in the mail from a very sweet England friend .. and she has introduced me to ... FRANTAGE!!! OooOh my gosh .. where in the world have I been right?! I tried it and have fallen head over heels with it! I loved it so much, I had to order different colors of it! haha!!
Now let me tell you my "inexperience" of using Frantage! :) I used it for the very first time and ended up burning .. yes literally burning .. the edge of my image with my heatgun! OMGosh right? Could have been a nightmare and my heart almost went into overdrive .. I saw a little part of my image corner turn red from fire .. lol!!! But I quickly patted it ... and the frantage blended in with the burn. :) LOL! Ooooh leave it to me for these situations! :) My first frantage card with this "burn" will not be shown until sometime in May .. and it's made for this lovely friend .. who introduced this to me. :)
In the meantime, I would like to show you a card that I've made using a DARLING LOTV image called, "Dainty Cake". I've coloured her with Distress Inks. OoOh how much I love her as well! I can't get over these girls .. I so love their gowns .. and their hair!!!
Have you treated yourself to these GORGEOUS Lili of the Valley stamps?! OooOh .. I know you deserve to treat yourselves! Especially to something as beautiful as LOTV's!!! Don't forget shipping is FREE for STAMPS!!! :) Awesome!
Thank you so much for visiting me ... I love it when you do! I'll see you again soon!
Hugs,
Elise

Hi Elise, yes just descovered frantage myself this week ... Now everything I touch needs a little added frantage!!! The first attempt U had with it, I got so excited that I had the heatgun far too close & ended up melting the heatgun & it welded to the back of my work!!! Even managed to rescue that!! It's the project that's at the top of my blog now!! Look forward to seeing your project when u post it.
This card is most lovely too, I don't have the images yet, but sure they will fall into my basket eventually!! Beautiful card, live the gorgeous soft colours you have used, & all the fabulous detail.

Love these lovely girls too. Your colouring and lace is so beautiful.
ha, ha, what a great story!
But your card is great and the image is adorable.
Your colouring is fab as always!
Love the little corners you used. Are they made of clay? ( Martha Stewart?)
Looking at that beautiful gown, makes me wish I was born 200 years earlier, but hey than I wouldn't be into stamping now would I and that would be such a shame, ha, ha.
Have a wonderful sunday!
Bye from the Netherlands,

Oh so beautiful Elise. I love the sweet image, wonderful soft colouring and gorgeous flowers and lace too.
I am looking forward to seeing your Frantage creations!

Hi sweetie, I love this sooooo much. I love her hair. I have frantage and I do use it but a bit too sparingly I think. I'm going to have to get a bit braver with it.
Have a great day
