Would you believe a Coffee Filter?

I love the Faux Silk technique and when I saw this done with a coffee filter I knew I had to try it.

Seriously a coffee filter!

 Flatten it out first....


Then stamp on it randomly....

Take a piece of cardstock (this one is 3 3/4 x 5) and apply glue stick all over one side.

Drop the coffee filter on to it and tap it with your fingers. The more wrinkles the better!

Trim the coffee filter.

Here's a close up.

And here is the finished card!
Until Next Time!

I'm hosting ANOTHER Swap!

It's a lot of work but I just love to swap and host swaps!

I'm a bit of a mail junkie and love getting stuff addressed to ME!

Right now I'm hosting a 4x4 Technique Sampler Swap with other Stampin' Up! Demonstrators.

There is a variety of techniques being swap and in the end we'll all end up with 27 different 4x4 Technique samples!

Why 4x4 and 27?

I chose this size because it's easy to work with - put your samples in a photo album or on a ring - and if you start with a 12x12 piece of paper you will get 9 4x4 pieces.

I chose the final number becuase it only uses 3 sheets for your bases and isn't too overwhelming!
Here's a little sneak peek of one I just received from Heather Neidig:

Heather's done the faux silk technique - isn't it gorgeous!
