Singing in the rain

Here is another challenge card for Less is More who are 'singing in the rain'.

I love these wellington boots stamp. The umbrella I have on the card is one I just made up with wire for the handle.

It is a simple card but my style.

Happy Crafting.

Let's Surf!!!!!

Well where has the time gone?

I have been doing a few crafty things which I will pop up on the blog soon.

But for now here is a card for Daring Cardmakers where they are asking you to be 'out on the water'

I stamped the surf board, shorts and flip flops. These were cut out and coloured. The water and the sand have been torn from blue and yellow card.

Stamps

Hello

It's been a few days since I have blogged.

I bought though that I would just pop a post on here to say that I am so excited about something that I have wanted to do for many years and just not had the right tools or should I say help to do it.

As some of you may well know my partner David designs and illustrates. He has had some lovely images he has drawn up that I fell in love with and printed out as a digi stamp. I do like digi stamps but am more of a hand stamp person so I can layer, mask and just generally place the image and wording where I want it.

Well i can now do that as David's images are being made into stamps by me.. yes I can now make the stamps.

Here is a photo of worded and image stamps that have been made.

Butterfly Love Card

Well hello again. Two post in one day.

The card I am about to show covers 5 challenges. I have been so busy with bits and time has flown by. To cover so many challenges is not really my thing so I am sorry about that.

Papertake Weekly says anything goes (with a christmas optional if you want).

Daring Card Makers are asking you not to use scissors please.

Less is More requires you to use something recycled on your creation.

Clean n Simple have a fab sketch for you to use.

AAA Cards have a multi challenge going on over at their blog.

My card has string used from a shop tag, the heart is cut with a die, corrugated butterflies, the sentiment is stamped onto the acetate (plastic)

Has it really been over a week since I popped over here? Doesn't time fly especially with this fab weather we are having.

and

There is a fab prize as well, $15 to spend in the shop of 

 Fred, She Said Designs

The set of Digi Stamps that I played with on my card is the Marigolds and Morpho Set

Lovely set to play with and this is how I made my card.

The marigolds were coloured with copic pens and cut out with glossy accent in the middle.

The butterflies were also coloured in the pens and I made one smaller to fit in the larger one. Edged both with dazzling diamonds glitter. This set comes with some sentiments as well.
