LaBlanche

Hello!!

I'm here, on Friday, I remembered....LOL

This week I would like to share with you some beautiful stamps which I discovered at Winter CHA in January, and which I am sure you have all come across by now, a German company called LaBlanche Stamps....

The exquisite detail in these light as a feather silicone stamps is amazing, and they stamp crisp and clear every time....

I have been playing with this little stamp called "Foxglove".....

Beautifully packaged.....

The detail is amazing.....




I started with the obvious option - black Archival Ink on plain white card.....



No further action on this one....



Again, black Archival on white card, then coloured with Distress Inks.....



Distress colours used - Victorian Velvet, Fired Brick and Forest Moss.....



Again, black Archival on white card, coloured with Distress Inks....



Distress colours used - Tumbled Glass, Faded Jeans and Bundled Sage.....



Next, using a Versamark pad and white heat embossed on white card. Card then coloured with Distress Ink....



I used Tattered Rose Distress Ink to completely cover the white card, then wiped over the white embossing to make it pop.....



Next, using the Versamark pad, and heat embossed with gold on white card. Card again coloured with Distress Ink.....



For this card I used Bundled Sage to completely cover the white card, and then buffed the embossing to make it shine.....




And, finally, again gold embossed on white card. White coloured with Antique Linen Distress Ink, and embossing buffed.....



Here are my six samples....



Now to turn them into cards.....



























Next I had a play with the "Indian Bean Tree".....



Again, stamped with Archival on white card and coloured with Distress Inks.....



Distress colours used - Spiced Marmalade, Shabby Shutters, Peeled Paint, Brushed Corduroy, Weathered Wood and Bundled Sage.....

I covered the sample with two layers of UTEE and then cracked it - love this effect.....



Still need to turn this sample into a project - one day....LOL

Here are the two stamps I have used.....



Well, these are not the actual stamps I have used, these ones are brand new, mine are safely in my stash....LOL



I have two sets of these two beautiful stamps to give away to my followers.....



Leave a comment on this post, make sure you are a follower of my blog, and I will draw TWO winners next Friday (28th)....

Too easy....

See you next week for SOUS Reveal Day, the winners of this week's Candy, and next week's candy....

See you then....

Hugs

CHA - K & L

The letters K & L today folks, on my alphabetical CHA review....

First up is an Australian comapny....

KAISER CRAFT



Loving the colours in this collection....






Their new Paper Blooms....












LA BLANCHE
A company new to CHA and the states - from Germany.....


They make stamps - and the detail is exquisite....


Here is Jacqueline - she designs the stamps, demonstrates, and has made all the projects on display....


This is what their stamps look like....

When I first saw them, I thought they were porcelain, and would be heavy.....




But, they are actually made of silicone, and are as light as a feather....


I was fascinated by these "new to me" products and will have a feature later on when the stamps I have ordered arrive, I also have a couple of projects that Jacqueline gave to me to show and step by step photo's of her techniques......

There will also be La Blanche candy when they get here.....
