Ducks a paddling...

Here's a card using the Crafty Individuals duck stamp CI-297:


I've used Derwent Coloursoft pencils to add colour and layered it up onto Glitz Designs paper (available from Happy Daze). Then I've stamped the corners and edges with parts of the Steampunk Butterfly stamp CI-295.

Vintage Butterfly...

Here's a card I've made using the new Crafty Individuals Steampunk Butterfly collage, CI-296.
I really like this stamp as it's both natural and mechanical, in other words, quirky!



I've teamed it up with some of the cogs and text from CI-294 and also some of the clocks from CI-255


The vintage papers are from Webster's Pages and 7Gypsies Conservatory. I've used Adirondack Pesto, Eggplant and Broken China to watercolour the background and used coordinating pencils for the butterfly.

I saw three ships...

Well, one actually, in this piece that I've made with some of the new Crafty Individuals stamps. I've used these two sets:

Fantastic, aren't they?
I've made a resist background in the top left corner, a bit like the Parisian Anthology papers, and added some mosaic pieces to look like the sea in the lower half. I had great fun choosing all the beads and chain for the hanging part.

Can't believe it's just a couple of days 'til Christmas. Here's my workspace (what space?!!) for WOYWW.


I've been busy with the new stamps from Crafty Individuals - going to post more pics later on.

Thanks for looking!

Dangly decoration!

I wasn't planning on making a dangly decoration, it just happened!
This uses one of the new Crafty Individual sets combined with a couple of colours from the Happy Birthday Big 'n' Juicy inkpad.





I've made the decoration double sided and added beads to the middle.

Thanks for looking!

Snowy Day...

Here's another card I made with a non-Christmas Artistic Outpost stamp and lots of Glamour Dust:




This stamp's from The Outpost plate available from Happy Daze.

Greetings...

Here's the finished card I made using a stamp from Artistic Outpost Home plate and Glitz Designs Love Nest papers:



This is not a Christmas plate, but by using wintry colours you can get a Christmassy feel.
Head on over to Happy Daze to see more.

January Craft Stamper

January Craft Stamper is in the shops tomorrow. It's a great issue, a budget special.
My article's all to do with stuff from the kitchen - unusual for me as I hate cooking!

Thanks for looking!
