Sorry for the lake of posts my Mum has been in hospital since the middle of December after a bad fall. Luckily she only broke a small bone in her hand but due to her disabilities from the stroke she had 10 years ago it's taken until this week for her to be strong enough to come home. She's due home on the 8th so hopefully once she's back and settled I will be able to get back to crafting.

I've had a bad day!

Not had the best day as I was sorting out dinner and managed to cut my thumb in 3 places on a mandoline! Luckily I didn't need stitches (they've glued it), as it was bleeding a lot but I'm not going to be colouring for a bit. Steve maintains this is why you should stay away from the evil veg lol.

New Release Day

Image
Well its that time of the month again when Sweet Sentiment bring out new stamps. I've also moved over to the main DT as it gives me more scope and more designs to play with.   This month I've chosen the Swamped Stamps set as these cute guys.  I also thought this would be good for male cards and Fathers Day isn't that far off.  Aren't these stamps just so cute! My First cards, I've done a splodgy wash background with watercolours and added some splodges too.  The white circles are dies cuts (dies from Carnation Crafts - Eyelet & Ring Collection) and I had some waterdrop beans from my stash. Matted onto a 6in card. This is my second card this time I've got a very faint wash behind the circle die cut I coloured in the characters using Tri-Blend Pens I used my scan'n'cut to cut them out with a 2mm boarder. Matted onto a 6in card.  Come and join the FB group for more ideas and the rest of the new stamps too. https://www.facebook.com/groups/234249981697602

Calming Clematis so easy to use for all occasions

Image
I so love the flower stamps from Sweet Sentiment Stamps as they are so easy to use and to change.  Here I've coloured Calming Clematis using water colours again in yellow's for a more autumn tone which I've cut out with my Scan'n'Cut with a 3mm boarder. The word art is from a digital collection I already owned and the oval is from a digital frame kit.  I use Serif CraftArtist 2 for the digital part printed then stuck the flowers on.   https://www.sweetsentiment.us/ https://www.facebook.com/Judecreates1/ https://www.facebook.com/sharonscraftyplace #sweetsentimentstamps #sweetsentiment #copiccoloring #copics
