It's a sunflower day...

 

Morning folks,

I'm her with my mid month post for Stamping sensations.

The theme this month is the mood board below but remember the main focus should be stamped.

                      We also have the fab prize below to giveaway to one lucky winner.

           2 prizes, Santoto Gorjuss girls stamps/die/stickers and Woodware stamp Craft Stash 

 

For my card I stamped the large sunflower with memento ink, it took a few attempts as I just couldn't it to stamp evenly, this still has a little missed part from the centre but I coloured it to make it look like the light is hitting that spot.  I coloured this image with copics...I haven't used my copics for a bit so it was good to colour with them again.  I actually used four different shades of yellow, four different shades of brown a three different shades of blue.  I added some little splashes which I kind of regretted afterwards but I think it still turned out ok. I also added some sequins.

Beautiful Moments...

 

I thought I would share my latest creation using the beautiful moments stamp and die set from Gina K.  

I watercoloured the background and added a few splashes.  I stamped the branches and die cut them and stamped and die cut the vase.  I layered the vase on top of the leaves.  I stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set and added a few enamel dots to finish.

Happy Anniversary...

 Good morning stampers and its time for another challenge over at Sweet Stampin'.

This fortnight's challenge is "firsts"...that can be first birthday, first day at school...any first but remember to include stamping.

For my card I used a new stamp from Concord & 9th...first time used but I also made it into a first anniversary card.  I stamped the image and coloured with my caran d'ache pencils, I then dies cut the image and layered onto the card. I added the sentiments and I added some splodges and dots to finish.

Pop over to the Sweet Stampin' challenge blog to check out what my teamies have made.

Dig out the old...

Good morning everybody and my scheduled post...I hope whilst you are reading this that my office has warmed up and the drilling has stopped...it was freezing and noisy yesterday.

The challenge this week over at Dream Valley is "Dig out the old stash to use with your new stash". I have used fairly new papers from MME - Stella Rose collection. The image is of course from LOTV which I coloured with copics and I have had that for a wee while now, the ribbon is from The ribbon Girl and is brand spankin' new and the flower has been cut with a sizzlits daisy die...my very first sizzlits many moons ago. I added some zig zag stitching...not sure if it's a bit much but I am a roll with my sewing machine so lots of stitching.

The sponsor this week at Dream Valley is Digis with Attitude who are offering one lucky winner a $10 gift certificate to use in their store.

Pop over and see what the rest of the DT have created.
