Sail away, sail away, sail away.....

 It is time for a new Challenge over at Simply Clean and Simple challenge and the theme for this month is Nautical.  

I needed to dust off my dies and got cutting out through my Big Shot.  I cut a few layers for the yacht and just one layer for the Seagull.  Unsure of the origin for the dies.

 Coloured using Kuretake Zig pens

I haven't placed a sentiment yet as not sure as to who I am sending it to.

Thank you for visiting me.  We would love you to come on over to Simply Clean and Simple challenge and join in with the fun

Penguins are us

Hi all 

Yes it is time for a new challenge over at Peace on Earth Christmas.  Look at the fabulous moodboard just for inspiration - plenty of ideas to be had.

I actually chose Penguins instead of the ducks,  fir branches which can be seen behind the cats and snow falling. I do not have any of the animals in the pictures and the Santa hat I have does not fit the penguins big heads. LOL

So hear it is, the stamp is called Grumpy Penguins by Katzelkraft. Oxide inks for the background splattered with some white posca.  Fir branches from Cardio. Versafine clair Shady Lane and Nocturne for the stamping.

Thank you for visiting me.  We would love to see you entering our challenge.

Take Flight

Welcome to a new challenge over at Simply Clean and Simple. 

 The challenge is 

'Things that fly'

A lovely really simple one from me using one of my favourite Stampotique for  KatzelKraft stamps called 'Solo'.  So cute I love it

I coloured him using Kuretake Zig clean colour watercolour pens and spritzed with water. Just left it to do its thig and when dry did it again.  The sentiment comes from one of Tracy Evans stamps called 'Take Flight'

Here is my card and hope you like it

Thank you for joining me and I hope you come on over and join in with the fun challenge

Vintage Holly

Hello again everyone.  I do hope you are all well and if not speedy recovery and take it easy.

Here is the current  moodboard for our new Peace on Earth challenge below.  

I have chosen to make a bookmark to fit into one of my handmade crackers as a small gift.  I chose holly from the wreath on the house. 

 

I used an unknown brand stamps against a vintage background on cream card. 

Red embossing powder for the berries.

Ivory posca for a few splatters. A few strands of thread from my copious amount of threads in my drawer.  Need to start getting stuff out and using it. 

We would love to see you over in our new challenge and joining in.

Hugs to you all
