As I'm sure you will have already seen we have had 30 beautiful entries linked in to our February Challenge spot, which you can view again HERE. Daniele was in charge this time and has picked her 5, who will each receive a CI stamp of their choice. Many thanks to all of you who entered and as always it was a very difficult decision Daniele had to make - if your project appears below please email us at: info@craftyindividuals.co.uk with your address and choice of stamp, so that we can get them sent out poste haste.

I got a bit behind this Challenge and hadn't quite managed to display all the team inspirational images by the end of February, but I am delighted to now show you a creatively stitched step by step by Gio with a truly romantic theme..
Materials:
Crafty Individuals CI-293 - 'Floral Circle'
Crafty Individuals CI-402 - 'Just Be My Friend'
C&T Publishing Must Haves - Lesley Riley's 'TAP'
Distress Inks
Steps:
- Stamp with Archival Ink the main image from the CI-402 - 'Just Be My Friend' plate on a piece of Lesley Riley's 'TAP'
- Colour the image with Distress Inks using a waterbrush
- Stamp randomly two pieces of white fabric using CI-293 - 'Floral Circle' stamp and Distress Inks
- Cut it out and transfer the image on one piece of the fabric with a hot iron (TIP: Keep the peel off to use as a mask)
- Cut in strips the second piece of fabric
- Glue the stamped image on a white card
- Stitch the strips to the card along with lace and ribbon pieces
- Stamp on fabric, cut and glue the sentiment from the same plate
And here are the photos to help guide you:
And the finished card...
Thanks Gio!
Whilst on the subject of the stamp used above - the new issue of Craft Stamper is out now (and will be on our website tomorrow to purchase), and this particular stamp (CI-402) is the subject of a stamping contrasts feature within. It is always so fascinating to see how many different looks can be achieved with one rubber stamp - making them such a great crafty investment!
My final very pretty romantic images for this evening are by Helen, featuring CI-346 and CI-377 and are enhanced with the use of Gelatos for colouring..
Goodnight all, back soon,
