Crafty Roo for Allsorts

 I really wanted to enter the Allsorts challenge this week, but had nothing fishy to hand,

so next best is a prize I won from them and haven’t used yet, a large corner stamp from Crafty Roo,

(my memory is getting worse, so please tell me if that’s not right).

Edited to add…….the gorgeous stamp was a prize from the Snippets Playground!

My inspiration was from Jo Rice, using the honeycomb and bee.

I made my own stencil using a Detailed Bee SU die,  inked with daffodil delight,

having stamped the large corner in black.

I coloured it and the bee (from SU Honey Bee stamp) with watercolour pencils, using the blue and yellow from the bottom mountain picture at “Hand stamped sentiments”.

I stamped two bees, using snippets of white, then fussy cut the main body and top wings to add dimension.

Then I faffed around 😂 with the card base and mount. 

I ended up fussy cutting around the large corner, 

and also cut my base card, from a square to more of a rectangle, as it just didn’t look right.

I’m entering the following challenges…..

Allsorts #798 (anything goes) 

NBUS #66 (never before used)

Snippets Playground #489 (use snippets)

We love stamping   (hand coloured)

Hand stamped sentiments #447 (mood board, bottom mountain pic colours)
