Throwback Thursday - Patch Elephant

Hi All,

Hope you are all enjoying the GORGEOUS weather! I love getting out all my summer clothes. And it's definitely Aperol Spritz weather, which i enjoyed last night when I got home. 

Well it's that time again, so I'm sharing another oldie but goodie this week. 

I think there is definitely a theme with many of cards and that's Woodware stamps! LOL! There is so much you can do with them. 

I have used this Baby Patch Elephant stamp a few times. My friend had asked me to make a non-religious Christening card so out he came again. 

I stamped 'Ellie' onto patterned paper and cut him out and stuck this onto a base image that i had stamped on white card. The name has been cut from one of Tim Holtz' alphabet dies - Wordplay, and the stars from a nesting set. I printed the date on the computer.




Thanks for reading. 

Bye for now

Throwback Thursday - Woodware Felicity Bubble Bloom

Hi All,

Hope you are all well.

Gosh isn't it miserable at the mo!! Makes a supermarket run even less enjoyable!

I realise I'm slacking again in the blog department. I really do need helper monkeys :-) I thought I would introduce a throwback Thursday to my blog and share some of my older makes with you all.

This card is still one of my favourites - quick and easy but effective. I have used Woodware Bubble Bloom Felicity clear stamp and stamped onto Kraft card with clear embossing ink and embossed with white embossing powder. The verse which comes on he set is done in the same way. I have then coloured some of the 'bubbles' with a white pencil and some with a white gel pen, added some white Card Candi, twine and mat and layered onto white card and a Kraft card base. Simples :-)




Thanks for reading my post.
Keep dry!
Love
