The current Essentials by Ellen Mix-It-Up Challenge is with Avery Elle. My process is to pull out all of my products from both companies and spread them out on my studio table to see what sparks my inspiration.
When I saw Avery Elle's Made with Love set (which has apparently been discontinued since it's neither in the Ellen or Avery Elle Stores) next to the Essentials by Ellen Stitches Cover Plate, they looked like a match made in crafty heaven.
I stamped & embossed using a scrap of purple ombre designer paper in my scrap bin. I added a wrap of grey cord, since it is the closest to yarn that I had in my stash. I love the texture of the embossing plate on the background.
I'm also joining Lydia's second Dare to Get Dirty Challenge at SplitCoastStampers.
This is so cute!! I LOVE that you put that fun embossing stitches with the knitting. Great take on the challenge!!
