Noel

 
 
 
Hello My lovely Friends
 
I hope you are all well this Christmas season. I was cleaning my desk last night and found lots of stamps that I forgot I had. So I made this wee Noel card. They were buried under a mess on my desk. This was one of the new ones that I got a few weeks ago she is called Only Imagine. How cute is she?? I love her wee face and her huge big eyes. The Noel is from another stamp set called Silent Night.  So I put the them together to make a Christmas card.
 
I got some  new Derwent Inktense Watercolour Pencils last week the 36 set and I really love them. They were an early Christmas present from my Mum. They are so easy to work with and they travel really well which is another reason I wanted them.  I had the smaller set and I really like them a lot now I have lots of colours. So I used them to colour my card. I added some enamel accents to create the snow.  Then some clear glitter glue and finally a wee rhinestone star just to finish it all off. I really love how it turned out.
 
I want to wish all of my followers and readers a very happy Christmas when it comes to you. I may not be around until after Christmas so I wanted to make sure to wish you all well. I can't believe Christmas is next week!!! I have a few bits still to get and wrap but I am mostly done shopping. I am also collecting some crafty things to have a wee giveaway in the new year so  have a wee look out for that.
 
So on that note I will leave you with a photo I took of Glasgow my home town all decorated for Christmas.
 
 
 
hugs

Friends with Flair @ Unity

Here is my Unity Friends with Flair entry.  I used my Feel the Joy stamp and used the generation stamping technique with memento ink. I then sponged the background in purple and deep pink pigment ink.  I mounted it on to white card and added the Happy Birthday sentiment at the bottom. It looked too plain so I added teeny weeny little butterflies from the butterfly punch from Martha Stewart.  P.S I ran out of daubers and all I could find was a magic eraser it did the trick as a makeshift sponge :)                                        If you want to take part hop along to Unity and enter  here I just had to make another card I just love this stamp I wish I had gotten it sooner it is so versatile. I think it may be my new favourite Unity Stamp :)                                                                           Thanks for visiting :)

Love You - Hot Pink

Happy Friday Friends :) I hope you all had a good week. Here is the card I made for this weeks friends with flair today.  I used two stamps on this card. The hearts are from the  You are my Main Squeeze stamp set. The sentiment is from the Strength & Dignity KOM 11/13 .  The vibrant pink colour is Picked Raspberry distress ink that I sponged all over the card. I embossed the hearts with white embossing powder. I really like he effect it created it looks almost like chalk.  Have a great weekend :)

Craft Stamper May Challenge

Hello Friends! I hope everyone is doing ok during this crazy time.  I just wanted to remind you that we are still running the Craft Stamper Challenges.  The May challenge is well underway but you still have time to come and join in.  Here is my card I made for this month's project.  I made this clean and simple floral card with Unity stamps.  I used two different kits to create this card. The jar with the flowers is from the  Strength & Wisdom  stamp set and the sentiment is from the kit called  His Words .  I kept my card really clean and just used my watercolors to colour the flowers and jar then tied a little twine around it to finish it off. If you have the time come and play along with us this month.  You can use any stamps you wish on your project.  Here is the prize we have on offer this month this fab Eileen Hull die.  All of the details of the challenge can be found on the  Craft Stamper Blog . Hope to see your project
