So here we are with the second Digital Stamp from Sweet Sentiments Stamps.  I wanted to do something a bit different as I tend to make a lot of cards.  It nice to do a Home Décor item. Here's my quarantine man project, see the link below for the stamp. Quarantine Man:  https://www.sweetsentiment.us/shop/p/pmwh4bsug3edl98vvxf2renjhhkgz4 #sweetsentiment #sweetsentimentstamps #happybandit #digitalstamps #thankyoucard #cardmaking I wanted to do something a bit different so I had the idea to make a sign that you could put in the downstairs toilet.  I already had the sign in my stash I used CraftArtist 2 to add the sentiment.  I then coloured the stamp with Tri-Blend pens and a few copics, I like to show that you don't have to have copics to be able to colour well.   Once coloured I used my Scan'N'Cut to cut him out using a offset of 1mm.

It's here it's the first digital release for Sweet Sentiments Stamps. This month we have two stamps being released Happy Bandit and Quarantine Man. This lovely Raccoon was such fun to colour that I've made two different cards.  Happy Bandit:  https://www.sweetsentiment.us/.../happy-bandit-digital... #sweetsentiment #sweetsentimentstamps #happybandit #digitalstamps #cardmaking I decided to do a Valentines DL Card.  I coloured this little guy again with Tri-Blend Pens which are such an easy option if you are new to colouring.  Again I used Serif Craft Artist 2 and used a splatter background I had plus the You was a sentiment I had already.  Once he was coloured it was over to my Scan'N'Cut I used this to cut-out the Raccoon with a 2mm boarder.  I also used the built in Font and cut out the LVE which were 7cm tall.

Hello 2022 New Year, New Blog

Hello this is my first post in ages due to family commitments and then Covid.  I did already have a blog going but found out that Google had deleted the gallery I had and I have lost 4 years of scrapbooking layouts, Home Décor projects and Cards.  So I thought let start of the new year with a fresh new look and blog.   I have also been asked to join the DT on Sweet Sentiments as they wanted someone who's happy to make more than just Cards. Jammie also wanted someone who is happy to work with her digital stamps and to show just what can be achieved. So I hope you will join in and visit regally. So until next time wishing you a Happy and Healthy 2022 x
