A few weeks ago I was contacted by Sheena Douglas to see if I wanted to become part of her Design Team, the Inkoids. After I picked myself off the floor in surprise, I could not help but say yes, for even though I was not very familiar with her stamps and other products, I have loved her techniques for a long time.
So today I am sharing the first of the samples I created for her using the stamps from her latest release. You will be able to see the stamps in all their glory on Friday at 9 am on Create and Craft. Hope you'll tune in then, I promise you will not be disappointed!
So here is one of my samples, there will be several to follow in the days to come.
Hope you'll tune in next Friday and thanks so much for visiting!!

Wow Astrid HUGE CONGRATULATIONS on joining The Inkoids. Am a huge Sheena fan so knowing your cards will be part of her show will bring a smile when i am watching.
Already have the shows on record, am really happy for you! Your card as always is beautiful, the faux bleach technique is great isn't it. Must try and get hold of some of the stamping card, if you like it that's good enough for me.
