Good evening all

Good evening all, so I've been concentrating on my level 3 and have finally completed another unit!!  still a lot to do but that one was very long winded.
Any way here are two quick makes I made this evening using mainly stampin up products.

'Sky is the limit' stamps using' always artichoke' and 'garden green' ink pads with my aqua painter. Tim Holtz edge distresser, a little cheese cloth and a few black gems at the bottom.

Then for my second make I have made a plain and simple thank you card using the 'Flower shop' stamp and the 'pansy punch', my aqua painter with 'always artichoke' ink pad , then a sentiment from 'What I love' stamp collection. A little of my Gorjuss Santoro ribbon and a few 3D white snow drops to add a bit of texture to the background .

Sleep tight

'Sky is the limit' all occassions card

Good morning everyone from a miserable southampton, so after work last night I came home, made myself a cup of tea and had a little play with my two free stamp sets from stampin up sale-a-bration 'Sky is the limit' and 'Flowering fields',  In this particular card I have used the sentiment from 'Sky is the limit' and the stamp from 'Flowering fields', using my new aqua marker I have used coordinating cardstock and inks to bring the image together. using my 3D foam foam pads I have added dimension and distressed the edges to draw the eye into the focal point. A simple yet elegant card which can be used for many purposes.   :D

So the washing's on and my daughter is running riot pretending theirs a dinosaur is our house, I might just try and persuade her to come and stamp with mummy for a while HaHa. Well I hope you all have a relaxing Sunday. Take care.

I must....

Good evening everyone, I really must discipline myself, I need to blog!!!!. Well.... in my absence I have made a few cards which I would love to share with you all. I set myself a personal challenge. The challenge was to use any scraps, old embellishments, old ribbon and any old stamps that I either have not yet used or haven't used for a long time. Here is what I came up with.
Enjoy x

P.S Any comments is greatly appreciated Thank you in advance. :)
