Eeekkk!! the hop starts with me along with 3 other ladies today and continues all week
Here's my entry for today:
As a stamper and dabbling in punches and die cut stencil embossing is an unknown territory. Having had a little "go" many (like 18) years ago when I first started crafting it has come a long way with the introduction to beautiful designs, stencil paste and in my eyes the best thing, being able to do a beautiful embossed picture like this with a turn of a handle. Using a die cutting machine and the mats required its literally that easy!
I fell in love with this beautiful butterfly stencil Dreamweaver Three Butterflies LL591. I chose to decorate a book and this hard backed book was just £1 for 2 in Poundland :) I ran the stencil through the Big Shot machine and kept the stencil in place, using various colours in inkpads and some stencil brushes I added the colour. And lastly I dabbed glitter glue onto it too.
I hope you have enjoyed my post and enjoy the week! I know I cant wait to see what has been done by all the others :)

Caz what a beautiful way to decorate a cheap book. Very elegant and feminine. Haven't played with stencils for years and have never been brave enough to try the paste!
What a lovely project to start off the blog hop Caz. I love the colours - so soft and gentle.

Beautiful soft colors! Great idea to embellish a book cover too! And to think you rolled it through the big shot! Haven't done that with my brass stencils yet. I'll have to give it a shot!
