On Display with cats and books

I had to have this set from SU….On Display

Stamps and dies to fill the shelves, I love mini anything,…..

….and each card can be easily customised to suit .

This was for a friend who loves cats, books, sci fi /fantasy,

so has a starry night background using SU paper, 

and black cats, that do not show up at all well in the photos!

See if you can find all three…..🤔🧐🤨

Another cat / animal / book / plant loving friend…

I used SU wood effect paper for the cabinet, 

and even managed to stamp some teeny images for the photo frame.

Bottom left is one of the “waste” pieces for a cupboard with a handle.

The sentiment is Alex Syberia 

I hope you enjoy today’s Display!

Thanks for taking the time to visit, and I really appreciate your comments

Periwinkle and Florastella

 I do have some favourite challenges, and am always delighted when drawn as a pick, 

or drawn for the wonderful prize on offer, so I’m sharing cards made with two gifts from the 

Snippets Playground, a stamp and stencil (Aall & Create).

I have to credit Sarn from Stamping for Pleasure for the inspiration….

I love this easy to use stencil Florastella, which went well with the Periwinkle stamp, which I stamped in black, inked with Highland Heather and decoupaged.

I’m taking this to We Love Stamping, anything goes, (there is a heart in the flower centre, but not sure that will count!)

Stamping Sensations, anything goes, although this stamp is already a favourite as well!

Stamp and Stencil

On this next card I used Gorgeous Grape ink and card stock.

I love how the flower has a heart shaped centre….

I’m entering the Snippets Playground #525, having used lots of white snippets for the decoupage.

Allsorts challenge #842, making my own background.

MyNBUS, this is a new to me stamp and stencil.

A huge thank you for those generous people who work hard to bring us challenges to inspire us.

The beautiful fairy stamp was a gift from a dear friend.

Sakura glitter pens, circle masks, black marker pen.

I’m taking this to Allsorts challenge #842, create your own background,

which I’ve done with inking and stamping.

Tag along with crafty roo

I have been lucky recently and won some lovely prizes, for which I’m extremely grateful.

I’ve been longing to enter the Tag-along and ATC challenge with a lovely large die set,

the one I’ve made here is only the third largest!

 

I received this Crafty Roo set so set about doing a decoupage collage.

My desk is still covered with Christmas stuff!

For some reason I opted for vanilla card, then inked with Poppy Parade and Shy Shamrock.

The weather is so dull it’s hard to get a decent picture, hopefully you can see some sparkle on the close up.

I’m not sure about my white highlights, I smudged the gold glitter glue,

and the sentiment went a bit wonky, but hey, shows it’s hand made eh?!

I used 3 strands of glittery ribbon and a couple of wired berries.

(I save all the bits from crackers…..does that mean I’m crackers?!)

I’m entering this into the challenge  Tag-along and ATC  using the anything goes option.

Thanks for taking the time to visit, and I really appreciate your comments

You are remarkable square

Here’s another card using the same set as yesterday….SU You are Remarkable.

I used some designer paper for the background, white card frame cut using the arch dies,

and a rectangle piece of gold foiled ephemera that I managed to fit behind,

that was in my stash left over from a kit I think.

I stamped the flower on a white snippet and fussy cut, 

the sentiment (Alex Syberia?) was also stamped on a white snippet, and die cut.

I added some sequins, but maybe shouldn’t have, then stamped the envelope….I’m trying to do that more.

As I used some snippets, I’m taking this to the Snippets Playground #524

You are remarkable arch

Here’s a set I acquired recently from SU, “You are remarkable”.

One of the reasons I got it was the two teeny tiny 🐝 bees 😍,

I also like the flower and sentiment…..

Daffodil card base, Corrugated embossed layer…

I used to have a crimping machine, (do you still have one?……..), but much prefer this new folder….

I wrapped some yellow ribbon around it.

Then using the arch dies, a piece of designer paper, and a white layer,

upon which I stamped and coloured with blends.

It’s the first time with the stamp set and the corrugated folder, so heading over to

MyNBUS #82
