Lavinia stamps and Pan Pastels!

Good evening lovelies! Friday again, where are the weeks going?

Tonight I'm sharing with you a card I've made using the wonderful Lavinia Stamps and Pan Pastels, a match made in heaven as far as I'm concerned! I have to admit I was inspired to make this card by the very lovely and talented Pauline Butcher you can visit her wonderful blog here! I'm also entering it into the Lavinia stamps challenge, the theme is "punch or die cut" for a chance to win the most generous prize of a £40 voucher for their web shop! Wow!

Speaks for itself really lol! I have added some of the fab detail sparkle by Imagination crafts to the flower centres, it's lovely stuff actually, not to be confused with glitter glue, although similar but in fact it's more dimensional, which is fab.

Hope you like it? Thank you so much for taking the time to visit and leaving a comment, it really does make my day. Have a great weekend xxx

Show us your Twinchies!

Good evening Lovelies! Wow what a storm during the night and this morning! Not keen on them, but got through it without retreating to bedroom and drawing the curtains lol!

Just a quick post tonight, I have made a couple of Twinchies for my old stomping ground http://twinchie-twinchiehotmaillive.blogspot.co.uk/ in support of the lovely Sylv! The theme is "English Country Garden" I've used a "Mini Jofy" stamp, I tried masking the first one so I only got the shed but didn't line up we'll enough! However I liked it a bit random, thought it suited the stamp? I coloured them in with my Inktense pencil's, I used DI to colour the card and a tiny butterfly punch to finish!

Thank you for visiting xxx

Darkroom Door And Distress inks!

Good Evening Lovelies! Well everyone has been moaning about the heat, not me I love it, it is tiring but we don't get much, but today had to wear cardi all day, been chilly :(

Anyway tonight I wanted to play with a new stamp set I got today from Darkroom door, it's one of the Wilderness sets can't remember which right now? I'm really pleased how its turned out, it was so simple and quick, I've used white linen texture card from Papermill Direct for the background, I used the reverse side of Centura Pearl card for the image, perfect for ink techniques.

 

So what do ya think? Thank you for visiting xxx

Good morning Lovelies! Another fortnight here, the year is flying by, I hope your all enjoying the summer?

Our very own Sandie is sponsoring this challenge with this fab prize for the winner!

 

My sample for the 11th challenge for Rhedd and Rosie's challenge is an 8x10 inch canvas, I wanted bright and cheerful and pretty, I've used a few different technique's to create it and I'm rather pleased how it looks, I do hope you do too!

 

 

 

I used 2 shades of green and a turquoise acrylic paint to create the colour, I used a swirly Splodgeaway mask in the background to give a subtle bit of texture! Tall grass stamp and butterflies by Visible Image, sentiment is Studio 490, the bush is Tim Holtz, Creative Expressions mask with white texture paste then Cosmic Shimmer gilding wax rubbed over, flowers are alterations Shabby Flower Bigz die coloured with Pan Pastels, the crow is from Wendy Vecchi Studio 490 art bits.
