UK stampers forum twinchies

Like last month I’ve made an effort to join in with more of the swaps over at UK stampers forum – these are my Twinchies!

I started with two pieces of card I had mopped up some ink with – I then blended some additional ink so I could cut four twinchies from it as the background.

The theme for this month on the twinchies is Swirls and Twirls so I used the swirl from a Paperartsy Darcy stamp set and stamped it in black versafine.

I cut down the inked background a little so there would be a frame and glued it to the black twinchies.

I then stamped the swirly flower image on the leftover inked card and fussy cut it. I chose to put the flower in the same place on each twinchie but rotate it onto the base twinchies.

I then stamped and embossed the word imagine four times and cut them out – I added them to the side of the flower centre. Then I added the blue sparkly gem from the stash to the centre of each.

I then used my white police pen to add a few little highlights to the twinchies – a doodled line and the white dots.

A fun set of twinchies made from scraps!

Doing these swaps is pushing me to use supplies I don’t often grab for and it’s fun to create without a real boundary (other than the theme or the artwork size of course!)

Next to make will be the inchies … hopefully they will equally fun!

Happy crafting!
