Relax and Enjoy

Hello there
The last card (for now) using the Creative Stamping issue 57 stamps. This has been a fun set to work with and I'm sure I'll be coming back to it in time. The background was one of my own Distress Oxide mop up papers but I'm afraid my shocking photography skill doesn't show up the greens and yellows very well!

Thank you for taking a look xxx

Hello
A warm welcome and thank you for stopping by my blog. Here's another quick make using the stamps from Creative Stamping 57. The background paper is from the packaging that came with a set of GiogioCraft stencils, with a little extra shading in yellow around the llama and to ground the feet.

Hope you have a lovely day xx

Hello
It's been much easier to do a bit of crafting since the weather has cooled down where I am.

I'm sure I've mentioned before that my lovely husband is very generous and frequently buys me magazines that he thinks I'll like. My next few posts are all using the stamp set from Creative Stamping issue 57. It's a really versatile set and I can see myself coming back to it in the future.

First up...

The background started with a mop-up paper using stencils and Distress Oxide ink spritzed with water. The elephants were stamped and masked off, some shading and the sentiment added. Quick and easy. Thank you for stopping by xx

Hello again!
After a bit of a break from crafting I'm slowly getting myself back into it, starting with small projects and cardmaking. Here's a card I didn't post from earlier in the year using the stamps from Creative Stamping magazine issue 54.

The background and circle are actually one layer with the illusion of depth but the car itself is mounted on foam squares.

Thank you for stopping by for a look xx
