Barbara DT - MDF Samples from Ally Pally

Morning everyone.....this is a scheduled post as I'm in Croatia on holiday...yeah!
Last weekend, Bee Crafty was at Ally Pally, and launched a fab new range of MDF projects. All the DT got a few to play with, and these were my shapes.....
 For this one, I first covered with a coat of white Gesso, then inked over with Adirondack raspberry pink. Using Versamark, I stamped the Ground Elder - HERE, Tree Branch - HERE and sentiment -  HERE,  then heat-embossed  with silver & white embossing powder. I messed around too much with this one, and didn't like it ......
 Now this one I think is much better.....quite a large MDF piece, so I thought it needed to be classy & elegant. Black & gold is always a favourite choice for me, if I'm doing 'elegant'! I simply covered the front of the plaque with black smooth cardstock then stamped and heat-embossed the Ground Elder - HERE, Teasels - HERE, Tall Teasel - HERE and Sentiment HERE in fine gold embossing powder. (this is my favourite, and a great size to work with)
This was a small plaque, so I painted it with Dylusions acrylic paint in yellow & lime.....(so much brighter than in the pic). I stamped the Teasels, ( as above ) and Sentiment (as above) in Onyx black, Versafine, and added some yellow Stickles - HERE
Well, hope you've enjoyed seeing my MDF pieces, I'll be back next weekend with a sneaky peek of the brand new Christmas stamps.....and they are FABULOUS!!
Catch you later,
Barbara xx
