Sending Happy Thoughts...

 

Morning folks,

Its time for the mid month post over on the Stamping Sensations Challenge Blog.

This months sponsor is Oakwood Archer who are giving away this lovely prize...

Doodles in Bloom which is stamps, dies and a stencil.

I have made my card using Altenew Beautiful Day...one of my many favourite stamp sets.  I stamped each of the layers with ink to give a bit of depth, then die cut the flowers and leaves and layered them all together.  I left one of the images uncoloured as I thought it looked a bit funky.  I added some splodges and sequins...oh and the sentiment.

Pop over to the Stamping Sensations Challenge Blog for more inspiration.

I'm off to work now...with yummy cheesecake since it's my birthday...

challenges:

Simon Says Stamp - layer it up

Crafty Calendar - anything goes

Friend...

Morning folks,

I am here today with my card I made for Allsorts Challenge....yes I have been asked by the lovely Brenda to take a guest spot, today being one of them.

The theme is to use your favourite stamps or dies...now I do have many favourite stamps so it was a hard decision on which to use but eventually I decided on this little leaf stamp from Simon Says Stamp - Be kind. I do love it, it's so simple to colour.  Today I stamped and coloured with watercolours, I did use blue and green and then tried marbling them a bit and I also added in a bit of silver watercolour...its hard to see that in the photo.  I added some shading around the leaves and some splodges and sequins.  Oh I saw a card that had a wee paper strip which I thought was quite funky so I added the stripey paper to finish off.

Sending some happy rainbows...

Morning folks,

My post is scheduled so hopefully it posts correctly.  I'm away for a wee glamping holiday this weekend, hope it doesn't rain....my card is kind of appropriate if it does ha ha!

It's time for a new challenge over on the Sweet Stampin Challenge Blog and the theme this fortnight is:

"rainy days and rainbows"

I do love a wee rainbow stamp.  I have used some stamps from concord & 9th with umbrella and rainbows...they are from different s but I like that you can mix and match.

For those of you who know me...I love Elvis, so here's a wee card I made using Oddball Elvis which I coloured with copics, I jazzed up his suit with glitter.  The happy birthday stamp is from concord & 9th, I used the glue stamp pad for the middle happy and stuck some fine glitter to that....I was trying to get the Elvis in Vegas look ha ha!

For my card I stamped this pretty little image onto watercolour card and coloured with Concord & 9th watercolour inks, I added some splashes and some sequins...I left it plain and simple but not sure if it needs something else now that I see it....

A little bit of sugar...

 Morning folks!

It's time for another challenge over on the Sweet Stamin Challenge Blog.

This time we want to see you use your old stash...for me it had to be one of my favourite Sugar Nellie stamps - Pippi.  I stamped her with black memento and coloured with copics.  I kept it clean and simple as I wanted the focus to be really on the stamp as she is such a cutie.
