Happy Birthday...

 


Good morning stampers!

It's birthday week over on the Sweet Stampin Challenge blog...the Sweet Stampin Challenge is 12 years old...how did that happen?

Well this wasn't really what I had in mind, I wanted to die cut different letters and have a layer on top but after playing about with my scan n cut....with the help of Cass, I gave up and went back to the dies!

So first I added some watercolours to the card and left it to dry, I then die cut the letters and stamped the outline over the top, didn't want the black line to be perfect (I deliberately did that lol) and added some sticky fixers, I then stamped some little flowers, stamped the birthday and finished with some dots and sequins.

Jingle all the way...

 


Hi folks

It's time for a mid month reminder of our Christmas in November theme over on the Stamping Sensations blog this month.  Our sponsor is Be Creative who are giveaway a £25 store voucher. In addition there's also a lovely die set up for grabs too.

I wanted to use this little Santa and then I had a brainwave that I would make Santa look like he's bursting through the wall...well that was the plan in my head!

I used a brick wall stencil from MFT and the Santa from the Jingle all the way set from MFT too.  I coloured the Santa with copics, added some white glitter to his beard and fur...finished with the usual sequins etc.

Have yourself a Merry Little Christmas...

 


Hi folks,

Well some news today, I have been asked to join the DT team over on the Stamping Sensations Blog which I am so chuffed about and here's my first card.  The theme is Christmas in November...how easy is that with Christmas fast approaching.



For my card I cut a piece of watercolour card and stamped the snowflake background with versamark ink and then white embossed it (love this technique).  I then randomly added some colour using watercolour ink and swooshed it around. Once it was dry I added a piece of washi tape in a contrasting colour, this is the first time I have used washi tape and I quite like it. I then stamped up some trees with coordinating ink and die cut them and layered them on top of the washi tape strip.  I stamped a coordinating sentiment from the same stamp set....and the usual sequins, gems and pearls to finish, hope you like it.

Have yourself a merry little Christmas...

 


Hi folks,

A wee mid week evening post from me.

I ordered this stamp and die set a few weeks ago and I must admit it is fab! I had a play about with it at the weekend and this is what I came up with.

I have a few of these turnabout stamps...once you get the knack of working out how to use them then they are great.  I also used various ink pads from Concord & 9th and added some little gems and sequins to finish.

Hope you like.
