Purple and green

I made this card for the Wednesday Stamper challenge this week, for their theme of purple and green. The main image stamp is by Katy's Corner and I have used some of my new Alcohol Inks Lights for the background. On the purple panel I've used a Tim Holtz mask, the 'Hopes and Dreams' stamp is by Crafty Individuals, and the butterfly is by ISC.

Green card

I seem to have used lots of green lately and seen lots of other people's work also in green! It must be the thought of Spring on its way. Anyway, I made this card for the Wednesday Stamper challenge using a stamp by The Queen's Dresser Drawers for the main image, and another of Tim Holtz's Slight Alterations stamps on the background panel. (By the way, is it just me or does The Queen's Dresser Drawers sound slightly rude? LOL)

Wednesday Stamper Challenge...

...this week is to make a skinny, so I've made two! I do love making skinnies. For the one on the left I have used Distress Inks for the backgound and then sprinkled a few drops of water over, the flower border stamp is by Tim Holtz, the bird and quote stamps by Katzelkraft. For the other skinny I used gesso and Distress Inks on the background and the main image and quote are stamps by Art Journey.

Wednesday Stamper Challenge

The challenge this week on the Wednesday Stamper blog is to use hearts in a different way. I decided to make a little house and I have used lots of tiny punched hearts for the 'roof tiles'. I've used various stamps by Tim Holtz, Paper Artsy, Hero Arts and Katzelkraft.

Vintage Love Twinchy

Made for the Small world of inchies challenge this week of 'vintage love' and for the Wednesday Stamper challenge - to use lace.

Dans ma maison...

...there is a woman. A little house made for the Dans ma maison... challenge, also for the Wednesday Stamper challenge this week which is 'Brown Combo' - to use brown with other colours. I decided to use yellow and a touch of gold here. The picture of the woman is from art-e-zine.

Circles

A 4 x 4 for the Wednesday Stamper challenge - on the theme of CIRCLES.

Good morning sunshine

The Wednesday Stamper challenge this week was 'Hello sunshine' and so here is my entry! I used a mixture of stamping with resist ink onto glossy cardstock, brayering over with dye inks and then over stamping with the same inks. I was trying to achieve the hazy look of the sun rising very early in the morning. I stamped the sun and the wording with purple StayzOn, stamped the sun again onto yellow card, cut out the face and glued it over the original, then added Ranger Sepia Accents. The sun stamp is by Viva LasVegastamps, the flower flourish and text stamps by Hero Arts.

Twinchies

The Wednesday Stamper challenge this week is to make Twinchies - they are like inchies only two inches square. The stamps used here are from the Squiggly Ink range by Paper Artsy.

Sisters

The Wednesday Stamper challenge this week is sisters - a perfect excuse for me to use one of my favourite stamps by Paperbag Studios!

Brads and eyelets

A skinny made for two challenges: My Time to Craft theme this week is brads and eyelets, and the Wednesday Stamper challenge is eyelets. The background was made with chalk inks and a quick spritz of Glimmer Mist. The stamps are by Art Journey and Paper Artsy.

Winning hand

This week's Wednesday Stamper challenge was altered playing cards. I couldn't find my usual size cards, only these mini ones! So I decided to use them on an ATC. I thought the guy in the Art Journey stamp looks like a bit of a 'Jack the lad' and the sort that always has a winning hand.

Be Square

That's the theme this week on the Wednesday Stamper blog so here is my contribution. I have used postoid stamps and then filled them with a bit of stamping and sponging colour.

Wednesday Stamper challenge

This challenge was to use at least one rubber stamp and to include the word 'ART' in your project - so I have made this card using a text image stamped onto glossy card and brayered over with dye ink. The large flower is chipboard which I inked and stamped, and then coated with clear UTEE.
