I'll have a little reminise in the meantime. Wax paper, this was used for helping release die cuts from their dies, but there are so many other uses. This was a little exploration:
I liked using it with my embossing folders. Emboss, and then iron onto your card. Add ink, and look how amazing the results are:
Scrunch your waxed paper, and iron - stunning. Or use your rubber stamps, again printing the image onto the wax paper, and then transferring it onto the card.
I then used the background I had created, with the brilliant Inkadinkadoo stamping gear system.
Okay folks, set that challenge......

Hi Leonie. I have wax paper for using in die cutting, trouble is I always forget to use it so maybe I'll have a play with it using other techniques.

This is great, will try this tonight! As to the challenge, i was going to say angelina fibres but someone has already suggested it, so what about corrugated card, stamps and gilding wax? Can't wait to see you on tv again! Ruth x
Love the last card. I tend to make 6 x 6 cards and found the stamping gear too big to fit but it doesn't have to does it?!! Must try this.
Don't know why I haven't before as I like the 'off the card' look!! :) Mxx
