Stamp Something - pink green & yellow

Good morning everyone, I hope all is well with you and yours :o)

I used the pink spotty card that is in the packets of stamps bought from Stamps and Smiles, perfect for the job methinks :o)
Of course I coloured the flower with copics then cut out and attached with silicone to raise it, and the same with the brads. I used Glossy Accents on the ladybugs.

BC is white hammered from PMS
DP is from J&P Pictures
Peachy Keen stamp from the Funny Flowers set
Sizzix die
Fiskars Threading Water edge punch
Dovecraft brads
PM gems
Glossy Accents and a smudgeon of Glamour Dust

Stamps and Smiles challenge card 23

This is my entry for the SASSC23 over at http://sasthefreshbatch.blogspot.com/

I went to my local craft shop on Thursday and bought several sheets of Bazzill Basics spotty card and knew this green was going on my challenge card. I stamped just the flower head from the SAS Hello Spring set and coloured with what else but Copics :o) Although I love making square cards it was a change to do DL.

Peachy Keen challenge 03


I just love this sketch and really enjoyed making the card. Don't you think this is one cute elephant from Peachy Keen? :o) Used Copics for the colouring and I cut the round backing with the Cricut from the George & basic shapes cart. The ribbon came with a stamp order from Jennifer Meyer over at Stamps and smiles.

Made these just just for fun

I used these images to practice my Copic colouring then made up the cards to see what they looked like in situ.

I just love the ikkle wellies on this one :o)
DP from J&P Pictures on these first two.
I stamped the flowers, which are coloured with Marveys, all across on this one

Backing on these two is from K&Co

I really enjoyed making them as there was no deadline!
Many thanks to my good friend Viv for allowing me to use her birdie stamps when I was at her house last :o)

My first Winter Wonderland entry

This is my entry for Winter Wonderland's Christmas past challenge over at http://christmasblogchallenge.blogspot.com/2009/07/week-6-christmas-past.html I hope it fits the bill :o)

The main image is my own photograph taken at Elvaston Castle in the snow earlier this year.
I printed the sentiment straight onto the photograph. There is no name on the rubber stamp, which I have used many times. I stamped it 4 times and decoupaged it although it doesn't show up very well here. Snowflakes are table confetti. It was a very simple card (A5) to make :o)
Recipe:
BC is DCWV

Unknow rubber stamp
