Hello Friends

I have been busy making some framed items this week for Christmas gifts and decided to make my Mum a wee stocking filler. I always like to make  things for Christmas I think even if it is just a wee token gift. It always means more when you make something from the heart.

This is really easy I just stamped some pink flowers from the Insightful Meadows stamp set.  Then stamped the sentiment from First Friends, Best Friend , Forever stamp kit on top with black archival ink.  When it was done I put it inside this mini wooden frame. I love it!!! I am going to make a whole bunch of them for Christmas with all different sentiments inside to give to people.

Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today!!

It is a very new to me tool and wow do I LOVE it!! It is awesome! Just for the simplest of things like positioning a stamp.  One time is all you need with the Misti!! I am not one of those crafters that gets my stamped images crisp first time. I usually have wasted a card or two before I end up with a perfect image. This tool totally eliminates all of that.  Here is my very first card that I made with the Misti tool and Unity stamps.  I used a stamp called  Scattered Pieces . I LOVE this stamp and the sentiments that come with it.  I positioned the feather and the sentiment at the same time on the Misti.  I totally love that you can do that too!  It lets you stamp several at once instead of just eye b...

Hey Friends Welcome to a new  Craft Stamper  challenge for November. Can you believe we are almost at the end of the year already!!  Where did time go?? It has been pretty cold and frosty up here in Scotland for the last few nights.   But I am hanging on to Autumn as long as I can. I took a wee walk around the park and collected some lovely Autumn leaves.  I wanted to incorporate them into my project today.  I put the leaves in some paper and put them inside a heavy book overnight to press them down.  I started off with a white card base and used this sentiment stamp from Unity and repeat stamped all down the side of my card using Potting Soil Archival Ink. Then I went around the edges with Fossilized Amber Distress Oxide Ink.  Next I took my leaves and my paper punches and punched a heart shape out from the yellow leaf and then stuck it to my card with fabric glue.  Then I punched som...
