Time to unwind...

 






Morning folks...

I have been a bit AWOL with my cards lately as the crocheting has kind of taken over, after the holidays I am hoping to get back to an even split as I am missing making my cards, but I am also loving the crocheting...can't stop buying wool...oops!  So off on my holiday up north tomorrow and I am hoping to capture some great wildlife photos...top of the list is an orca but that is unlikely to happen but you never know!

It's time for a new challenge over on the Sweet Stampin Challenge Blog.

The theme this fortnight is "favourite colour".

Now I couldn't quite decide which colour was my favourite as I do like lots of colours however my wardrobe consists of black, black, more black etc but I do like blue and green together....maybe you can tell ha ha!

I actually bought this stamp set and embossing folder ages ago and just haven't had the chance to use it, so since I was talking wool I thought yep let's go with it.  First I embossed the background and added some blue and green ink.  I stamped up some of the wool images, tape measure and crochet hook using blue and green....I tried to colour one of the balls like variegated wool...lol.  I then fussy cut them and layered them onto the card.  I stamped up the sentiment and added some dots and sequins to finish.

Hope you like it.

Beautiful birthday...

 


Morning folks...it's that time again...

It's time for a new challenge over on the Sweet Stampin Challenge Blog.

The theme this fortnight is "use a stencil".

I bought this stamp and stencil set a few months ago but haven't had the chance to use them until now.  The images are quite big so was a bit unsure of how this was going to look anyway here it is.

I stamped and then stencilled the background leaves in blue and green and then layered onto black card.  I also then stamped and die cut a wee leaf, I die cut the sentiment and layered onto the leaf and then added to the card.  I finished with a few sequins.

Hope you like it.
