Ready-Steady-STAMP! week 5

Week 5 already! Here is my entry for this challenge.

Inchies - two weeks worth!

I missed last week's challenge on the Inchybyinch blog because I was on holiday, so I have made one this week - it is on the theme 'Stitches'. The other one is for the current challenge - Asia, and it was a good opportunity to use the free stamp with this month's edition of Craft Stamper magazine.

Words ATC

It seems ages since I made an ATC! This is one that I've just done for the monthly Florrie's ATC Challenge over on Craft Swap Forum, on the theme of words. The stamp of the woman is by Art Journey and text stamp by Paper Artsy. I couldn't resist using a new 'spiral bound' punch I've just bought too!

Birdy moos

A couple more moos for the previous Make a Moo or Two challenges I missed - I've used birds on both of them! The one on the left is on the theme of Spring and I've used a stamp by Crafty Individuals, the other one is for the Swirls and Flourishes theme and the stamp is by Katzelkraft.

Some calligraphy

I've been away for a lovely week of calligraphy at Knuston Hall in Northamptonshire again. I had a wonderfully relaxing week and managed to complete several projects. This time we were doing the calligraphy hand called 'Legende' which is quite unusual. Most of my work is too big to scan, but here is one small piece I did. The quote is written in watercolour and I sponged watercolours on the left hand side and then added some gold leaf.

Ready-Steady-STAMP! week 4

Here is my entry for the fourth challenge by Ready-Steady-STAMP! I have used both a Tim Holtz mask and a stamp here, with scalloped circles in canvas for the flower. I had to rely on Glossy Accents to make the 'rain drops' around the clock.
