We Love Stamping

 Hello everyone, I am here today with a little inspiration for you, just in case you haven't joined us at

We Love Stamping 

for our current theme

All Creatures Great and Small  (or Anything Goes)

Once more, I have used a stamp set from my stash

a "T for Transparent" Penny Black set

Aren't they cute?!! Coloured with Promarkers, the postage stamp dies that I think are from The Works and the patterned paper is of unknown origin!!

There's still time to share your makes as long as there is a stamped image on your project.

On the subject of creatures, our fur babies Bumble and Bowie were TEN years old on Friday...here they are enjoying porridge for their breakfast

and when they were tiny!!

See you soon xx

Monochrome at Allsorts

 Happy Weekend everyone. I hope that you have some plans and if they include crafting then pop over to 

where the new challenge starts.

Liz has chosen an excellent optional theme

Monochrome (or Anything Goes)

 prizes, A5 stamp set and A6 stamp and stencil 

 

Here's mine

Once again I had a good old rummage through my paper pads and found a lovely one by Simple Stories, Snap colour vibe. I'm not that good though because the plain mats (as luck should have it an exact match) came from a new paper pad that I found in The Range a couple of weeks ago!! The balloon die was a magazine freebie and the Happy Birthday is from a Clearly Besotted stamp set.

While I am here I would like to invite you to the Allsorts Birthday bash, there's prizes galore and you are sure to have a great time!!

See you soon xx

Sketch at AYLI

I am here with my DT piece for

where the theme for the next two weeks is

Favourite Sketch

I don't have a favourite sketch as such but do have a favourite place to visit if mojo is lacking and that is at  Always With A Heart where Jules has a massive array of sketches that she so generously shares. I am making more rectangle cards these days (in a bid to use up linen effect A4 cardstock!!) so I trawled through her Rectangle Sketches and fancied doing this one

The papers are another very old  pad, Bazzill Basics Vintage Lace. The cone flower is an unbranded die and the sentiment from Clearly Besotted. 

Thank you for dropping in today, your company is always appreciated.

See you soon xx

 

All Creatures Great and Small at We Love Stamping

We have a lovely new theme at We Love Stamping this month

All Creatures Great and Small and the prize is

 Three stamps from AALL and Create

                                 

I have no shortage of animal stamps in my stash so I am sharing a gorgeous cow called Custard. She is a very old Sugar Nellie grey rubber stamp. 

The floral paper that I matted on the kraft card easel are from a Polkadoodles paper pack called The Great Outdoors. Custard was coloured with Promarkers and Copics. The die cut leaves are from Tattered Lace and the flowers, I believe, Joy Crafts.

Thank you for sharing your time with me again, it's much appreciated.

See you Soon xx

Anything but Square at Allsorts

 Christine has chosen the optional theme today

Anything but Square (Anything Goes also welcome)

Two prizes from AALL and Create

I used a favourite arched die set cut in black card. I cheated with the inky background and used a Lavinia A5 background that, I believe, I won from this very challenge several years ago!!

The sentiment was left on my desk from another project that suited perfectly. The gate die was  from The Cats Pajamas, another shop sadly gone. 

Thank you for paying me a visit, it's always appreciated. Hope you have a lovely weekend.

See you soon x
