Thank EWE

Happy Friday!!! I hope the weather is being kind to you all, it's a glorious day here today, i hope it continues for the weekend.

Today i made this card using one of the 4 new background printable stamps from The Cutting Cafe'. As soon as i opened the file Regina emailed me, i fell in love with this EWE. I re-sized the words and the ewe in MS Word, then added the words 'EWE' and' so much' , along with three more ewe's before printing it all out in one go. I then cut out decoupaged the ewe with 3D foam pads and flocked the top layers for texture.

More passion for Promarkers

I just couldn't resist making another card for the PfP challenge. I used another WOJ stamp, this one is called Willow in the summer breeze.

Challenge 1

Passion for Promarkers has gone live with their first challenge with some fantastic prizes from their sponsors. This week is anything goes, which means you can use any colours of Promarkers you wish. The DT have done some amazing cards, not sure mine is up to their standard, but i enjoyed making it, so that's all that matters.
I coloured this WOJ stamp (Dreamy Willow with flowers) using Ivory and Blush for the skin and Apple and Meadow Green for her dress, sorry i forgot to note the colours i used for her hair. The papers are from a free digital kit called Easy Breezy by Summer Driggs.

School holidays again!

I can't believe it's the school holidays again!, it only seems like the children were off school a couple of weeks ago and here we are half way through another week off. I'm not complaining because we don't have any foster children here right now and as my son is now 13 he sorts his own brunch (he's a teenager so he misses breakfast), so if i don't get up before 9am it really doesn't matter. We've been busy decorating this weekend, i've painted the family bathroom in Mellow Mocha, but i'm not sure i like the colour now it's on the wall, but hopefully it will grow on me.
Now for something crafty, here's one of the cards i made for Sarahcards, using the soon to be dispatched card kit.

Another WOJ

Here's the another card i made yesterday, this time i used Willow with flower basket from WOJ and again the papers are BG Wisteria.

Still playing.........

with my new Whiff of Joy stamps and my Promarkers, (i still need more practice colouring in though).

This stamp is called Willow with sunhat, and along with my new BG Wisteria 6x6 paper pad and my Leone Em branch punch, i came up with this card.

Happy Father's Day

This is my second card using one of the Summer stamp designs from Whiff Of Joy. The tree stump he is sitting on is from the Spring set, but can now be purchased separately.

The sentiment is from The Cutting Cafe 'Huge Father's Day Circle printable stamp set'. I resized both the large circle and the small sentiment on his sign. I stamped the image twice, and cut out the sign. I then printed the small sentiment onto plain paper in the size to fit onto the sign, i then stuck the sign over where it printed with repro glue, then popped it back through the printer to print again. I then mounted the sign onto the original image with 3D foam pads.

Summer's here!!!

Well my new Whiff Of Joy Summer stamps kit is anyway. I received this stamp kit this morning, and almost immediately mounted them onto EZ mount, stamped and coloured my first image and made this card. I also used the Huge Thank you Circle from The Cutting Cafe'. The paper i used is a digital paper from Raspberry Road designs called Cherry Bliss, which just went with this image perfectly.

Two more

Here's the other two cards i made for Craftytemplates, using this months digital card kit and templates.

On the first card i used my new EK Success Slim Border Punch - Swiss Cheese.
