Double Post

This month is just flying in and I am so behind

in my projects!

Thankfully I did have my DT ones for March

made before I went on holidays.

Our challenge over at

STAMPING SENSATIONS

has a Spring/anything goes theme.

We do have a lovely prize

so make sure and get your entries in.

For my card I used an old stamp set from SU called

Timeless Tulips. I stamped and masked so I could do

two different colours.

I added some matching ribbon beneath my

yellow mat and finished with a sentiment

and some heart gems.

Look at these fantastic prizes!!

For my card I used an old stamp set from SU called

Stylish Sketches. I formed my layers using

green card, dotty green paper, lace and ribbon

and then stamped and coloured my ducks

with markers,

and used my rectangle dies to cut out.

I added clouds and grass and finished

with a sentiment using another stamp set

called Welcome Easter

with two matching gems to finish.

We have a great prize up for grabs so come and join us.

Our prize this month is a £25 store voucher from Personal Impressions 

For my card I kept is pretty clean and simple.

I used a stamp set called Gather Together (SU)

Everything has been coloured with markers.

I matted it onto a scrap of wood plank paper (SU)

and added some rustic gems to the corners.

The sentiment is from the same set.

where the theme is anything Autumn/anything goes.

The prize over here is also amazing so well

worth your time to get an entry in.

For my card I just went crazy attempting to make a scene.

Looking at it now my moon looks like it fell

from the sky 😂

The stamp sets I used are called

Stylish Sketches and Mountain Air (SU).

I used a scrap of paper top and bottom, probably SU,

then added string and handwrote the sentiment

in white pen.

The background was inked using distress inks.

The fox and leaves were coloured with markers.

It was good fun to make and obviously

a learning curve lol.

Fall Y'all!

I got this lovely image via Mo's Patreon group

and thought she would be perfect for Valerie's theme

of Seasons over at

TAG TUESDAY.

She has been coloured up using my markers,

the background clouds have been stencilled

and I stamped and punched some smaller leaves

as her base.

The leaves at the top were stamped using Stylish Sketches (SU)

and coloured with markers,

but they do look a bit out of proportion lol.

The sentiment came with the image

which is called Fall Yall!

Animal antics!

Our September challenge over at

STAMPING SENSATIONS 

is anything goes with the option animal antics.

We have two lovely prizes from AALL & Create up for grabs so be sure and

get your stamps out and join us!

For my card I went with a stamp set called Stylish Sketches (SU).

I made my card base in garden green and then added some

torn papers from a pack called Pretty Prints (SU).

I then stamped the fox and the greenery around him

and coloured them with my markers.

I matted him onto some green card and added him to the card.

I finished with a sentiment stamped in garden green

from a set called Country Flowers (SU)

and added a bow made of garden green twine.

It's our 45th wedding anniversary today!

Nothing planned for today but hope to be

All things Autumn

This is my midway design team post for

STAMPING SENSATIONS

theme of All Things Autumn

and of course there are two lovely prizes up for grabs!

So for my card  I have used a white base card,

matted with papers called Delightful Daisy (SU),

to which I wrapped some Terracotta tile ribbon to before sticking down.

I then cut out an oval, stamped some foliage to the left using

Stylish Sketches stamp set from SU.

I coloured them up using my blends then stamped

the same images twice on separate white card and coloured

and cut them out. They were added to the left of my oval

using dimensionals. I stamped a sentiment in pumpkin pie ink (SU)

from a stamp set called Dragonfly Garden (SU).

I glued the oval to my base card and finished with a tiny

linen bow.

Diamond Easel Fold

I had a card to make for my Mother-in-law's birthday

this week and as one of her presents is a fox ornament for the garden,

I thought I would tie the card in with it.

I always like to make a special shaped card for her so

went with the diamond fold easel card.

I did make her one of these before for Christmas so hope

she doesn't remember 😍

The papers are plaid tidings, sadly retired along with a

stamp set from Sale-a-bration.

The fox has been coloured using my water colour pencils

and blender pen.

Had a day off yesterday as my IBS raised it's ugly head.

Still struggling with that sicky feeling but hopefully it will

clear away today!

Enjoy your day and thanks for stopping by.
