Cosy Home

I have made this little house for the Gingersnap Creations challenge which this week is cosy home, I have used three different stamps for this, the girls and the quote are paperbag studios as is the roof, the wall is a mystery to me as usual forgot where that came from. A little bit of masking required and some use of the promarker pens and my little cosy home was completed and what a nice quote on this stamp, I thought it sounded very cosy and hope you do to xxx

I have had Hels staying for the last 3 days and I am missing her now, we had a brilliant time seeing other friends, shopping, crafting and chatting xx

Snowmen SS Challenge

Here is my entry for this weeks Sunday Stamper Challenge and what a great challenge it is this week as its given me an excuse to get my wonderful Stitchel Snowmen and lady out of hiding, I just love these they are adorable.

I have stamped them on to glossy covered card and cut them out, I decorated a tag with Distress Inks and background stamps then put foam on the back of my snow people and added them to my tag, how cute are they, a few bits of white and gold pen and a finished tag. The stamps can be bought from Artistic Stamper and there are not just snowmen in the range so be warned you will want more :-)

Hope you like my tag and do take a look at the adorable stamps and Jennie also sells loads of other brilliant goodies to

Thankyou

Here are 2 cards for the Gingersnap Creations challenge which is Thankfulness, I know I have to make more than one, why I have no idea, guess if I am stamping and cutting out flowers I may as well do loads.

These cards are made using my final stamp in the collection of words, first time I have used the Thanks one, I have used Wendy Vecchi Stamps for the flowers and butterly and have layered them, not that it shows much, then used plain cardstock and some buttons for the flower middles, hope you like these and am of to tell Gingersnaps I have joined there challenge xx

Monster Mash SS Challenge

Here is my entry for this weeks Sunday Stamper challenge which is titled Monster Mash this week, my tag looks rather dark in this picture, the girl is a Stampotique Stamp, the chandalier ( not spelt that right) was bought for me so can not remember who thats by and the spiders web are what Dan bought me back from America, gosh I am hopeless with knowing who my stamps are by, never mind, I have used distress inks and a krylon pen also, hope you like and if you can not read it the quote says

everything you want is on the other side of fear

Message but not in a bottle

This is my entry for this weeks Sunday Stamper Challenge which is message in a bottle, but my message is on a card :-) I know this is a simple card but effective for what I need it for, I used a message stamp and Stitchel Stamps that can be bought from The Artistic Stamper, I just adore using these for embellishments as they are just sooooooo easy to cut out and decorate a project fabby. I have just matted the wording and added the flowers, hope you like this and thanks for dropping in xx

Have by the way been away at the weekend for the Artsy Crafty weekend, WOW it was just a brilliant time, made great things and had my great friends for company, we did have such fun to, just thought I would say that the weekend is well worth doing if you love Altered Art type crafting and you can read about it more from here as they are planning more weekends for 2010 and its well worth it x

Circles SS Challenge

I have no idea what I was thinking when I made this card, I think it was a case of how many different circle things could I put on it, this cards for this weeks SS Challenge which is Circles.

I have made my background with Tim Holtz stamps, cos they circle shape and kinda go with travel and time which is how this card ended up turning out, as the huge stamp in the middle is a compass, I stamped that a few times on different papers and layered it up and in the middle is a little watch face, yes its a rather wacky card but it should make the challenge, hope its ok and thanks for stopping in xx
