Funky Flowers


When I bought the long owl stamp, this one also came with it as part of the package.   As it was slightly smaller than the owl one - it was slightly easier to stamp.    Simply coloured with alcohol markers, and mounted on green velum.

Owls



I fell in love with this Woodware stamp at the Farnborough Craft Show, but it was out of stock.   Hochanda had it on sale earlier in the week - well it would have been rude not to buy it!  So, I had a little play today.   Not brilliant, as I had difficulty stamping it as it was so large - it wouldn't fit on any of my blocks!

I think next time I stamp it I will try using some embossing powder, which I think will make it easier for colouring.

It also lends itself to doing some zentangling too - so I shall try that.

Another Toadstool Card



A single "house" this time, with an extra embellishment for the door - a "witchy" button from Craftwood Creations - Button-It range.

Background painted with Spectrum Noir glitter pens as a wash, and the grass was stamped and painted using distress ink (bundled sage off the top of my head)  The fence was also stamped in a brown distress ink (walnut stain) and then "brushed out" with water.

The house was coloured with alcohol pens.

Butterfly Card





Who doesn't love butterflies - another stamp set I fell in love with at the show!   The Henna Butterfly set was by Dali Art.

This is the largest of the set, which I coloured with Spectrum Noir Illustrator pens, and then sparkle overlay added  (The antenna are actually better than the ones on the card, but I decided to cut out the stamp and managed to chop one, so had to chop the other one too!   oops!
