Clean and Simple

Well another challenge. I really have been playing catch up.
This time using the caravan stamp, which I do love lots, but in bright colours.

Clean and Simple have a sketch for you to use this week.


This is my take on the sketch. It is quite a bright card, matted on bright pink and yellow I think the image stands out even more.

Chocolate and Mint

New stamp again and yes designed by me. I have chosen this one for the challenge over at Less is More

They are asking you to use a colour combo of Chocolate and Mint.


I used copic pens to colour and blended them for the steam off the hot chocolate in the cup.

New challenge I have found

Hello.....
I was blog hopping this morning and came across a challenge blog I had not seen before.

They have a sketch which I loved. And clean and simple is normally my style.



The dino is one of our stamp designs. Glossy accents for his eyes and ink edged paper.

Seaside Special

As I went on and on about my stamps in the last post I just had to do another one!
This card has been created for the challenge set by Less is More 'I do like to be beside the seaside'.

Agsin coloured with copic pens and the heart has glossy accents on it. The bottom layer of the matting has been punched using the scalloped punch. It is a little added interest!

New Stamps

I am loving my new stamps that I have designed from my larger cards. The 5" square paper piecing card designs have been made into simple lined stamps.
These were made using a stamp making machine that was given to me for my birthday.

So on to the card. These were made for the challenge by Daring Card Makers
This week they are asking you to be clean & simple and anything goes.

These images have been stamped and coloured with copic pens. The hearts (which appear on all my stamps) have glossy accents on them.
The simple matting has been used. The sentiment I stamped and then punched using a decorative punch, putting it between the two layers of coloured card.

A Snowy Time

Well a month has gone by already over at Crafts Galore Encore Challenge
This month for our next challenge it "Make a Card'
We are being sponsored by Beccy's Place


Some of us were lucky enough to use her digi stamps. I chose the Snowy Pair

Printed a couple of times I was then able to 3d some of the snowmen's features. The scarf and nose and one of the hats. The hat, scarf and noses are shiny due to glossy access and I have added glitter to the bodies.
So here is my card simple but effective.



We look forward to you popping over and playing along with us on this challenge at
