Indigoblu Challenge

Now this was tricky, I went all through my stamps and nothing jumped out to me as the theme was Blue. I needed to make a box for a gift for Christmas,  and I chose the large Snowflake stamp and used blue embossing powder to make it shine.

I hope you like.

Clarity Challenge

I thought that this theme of Clean and Simple would be tricky, but I made this quite easily and I love the result.

Lavinia Stamps Challenge

I love my Lavinia Stamps.  I really enjoyed making this card. I stamped onto heatable acetate,  as the background isn't smooth with all the snowflakes. My imagination just floors when I get these stamps out.

This is my entry to the challenge x

Busy few days in the craft room, and so much fun.

Lavinia Challenge October 15

Hi

Just a card I made with my lovely new stamps.

Lots of distress inks and a couple of masks for the background. My new stamp in the foreground. I water bleached the pods and painted them blue and then went to town with Wow embossing glitter. Simples xx

Hobby Art challenge. October 15

Hi to anyone reading,

These cards were made with a sunrise I saw one morning after taking hubby to work. It had a warm glow around the sun, it was a strong peach colour that inspired me to use Abandoned Coral distress ink. 

The stamps worked really well and inked up like a dream.

I hope you like x

Oak House Studio DT cards

Hi! Bloggers

I have been creating for the lovely Lynnda at Oak House Studios again.

I have really got into using the stamps and inks, they are so versatile.  I have diluted them for spraying and made my own ink pads.

This card is just repeating a daisy stamp with Wine ink pad and the verse is stamped onto Stampbord. 

Lynnda showed this technique of Kissing the stamps together, and this is what I have tried with a small and large daisy stamps. 

This is the big daisy stamp, these stamps are very easy to love using.

All 3 layers of this card is in Peacock Green. I embossed some card and used the made up ink pad in the gorgeous Peacock Green, I then sprayed diluted ink through a mask and added a sentiment.  I then stamped out the big daisy and cut it out. It doesn't show too well the sparkle glitter in the centre of the daisy.

That's all for now, thank you for looking xx
