Good Monday Stamp Anniething Morning to you! I am back with my slightly-weird-obsession, pencil and stencil! I really liked the Desert 2 Stencil Builder and really loved the “Wet My Plants” digi and thought they would make an interesting combo?! What do you reckon? Let’s start with “Wet My Plants“, here is the digi inContinue reading “Growing Beauty”

Watching A Movie?
Happy Dr. Digi Friyay! Again! Already! Having a quick break from Halloween Cards because I loved Mavis and Marco and couldn’t wait to colour them! Went very CAS this time, not even a floor under the chair added, lol! Here is what they look like in the shop – And here is my version, closeContinue reading “Watching A Movie?”
HalloweeeeeeEEeeenie
Just popping in with a cheery Halloweeeeenie! Decided to do an upcycle on a Christmas Knitty Kitty Digis stamp (Dachshund Thru The Snow) and make him spooky instead! Do you like doing a stamp convert? I think it would be a cool challenge! So as he is a digi I was able to clear theContinue reading “HalloweeeeeeEEeeenie”
Birthday Zebra!
Commissioned First Birthday card today, and I went with a watercolour zebra and flowers to fit the glamourous zoo themed party plans! I haven’t tried to foil anything since… well at least 20 years, it was one of the first fun new techniques I tried out whilst getting into card making. Anyway TKMaxx has loadsContinue reading “Birthday Zebra!”
Sunrise or Sunset?
Fourth and final card for the day! And only a little bit of stencil included, but…just enough? I am never a person who does things in moderation, but after doing the first layer of the Stamp Anniething Pier Stencil Builder it felt like enough??? Another “Thinking of you” card, but more hopeful than miserable IContinue reading “Sunrise or Sunset?”
Sympathy
Whilst I was messing with watercolour backgrounds (to use with the builder stencils) I tried out a couple of different lewks. I thought the tropical vibe went better with Julia Ahoy Matey, but I didn’t want to waste the other two that came out ok! So this is just the watercolour background and the PierContinue reading “Sympathy”
Ahoy Matey!
Back with my next watercolour stencil pencil card! This time I did a tropical washy background with the watercolours and used the Pier Stencil Builder on top. This is what the stencil looks like. I swapped the tree part to make a mirror image, moved the trees a little to stop it looking identical. AndContinue reading “Ahoy Matey!”
Faunomenal Birthday
Happy Stamp Anniething DT day! Also known as Tuesday! For my live this month I had a play with watercolour backgrounds and then the pencil-stencil thing over the top! I ended up making four backgrounds and have now processed them into usable cards! I love making backgrounds from play/mess/experiment sessions. I am going to startContinue reading “Faunomenal Birthday”
Flowery Zoo
I think these are called spinner cards? The animals are two sided and spin round. I actually found a super cute paper mobile kit (from Papermania) and decided it would make a different kind of card. When you make a lot of cards for the same family you have to think about fresh ideas! NotContinue reading “Flowery Zoo”
Trick Or Treat?
Happy Dr.Digi FriYay! I am popping on the blog today to share a Halloween Card! I love how Halloween always leads to extra creepy inspo and bright clashing colours! This is the digistamp “Trick Or Treat” from Dr.Digi’s House of Stamps, one of my Halloween favs! This is a fun image to colour, I confessContinue reading “Trick Or Treat?”
