Metal Heart

StampTV had a release party on Thursday and there were lots of challenges, but I only mangaged one, which is a shame but I did have a great weekend putting together new furniture from Ikea, maybe not as much fun as stamping but very satisfying to look at our new sofa and coffee table etc. This card was for the metal challenge, I cut up a soft drink can and ran it through my big shot in an embossing folder, then got the alcohol inks out, really like how it turned out.

Train

Well another weekend and another StampTV challenge, I received a parcel on Friday with some new GinaK stamps so have been having lots of fun getting inky. I think this card does look better in real life though, note to self, learn to take better pictures hehehe, have a great weekend.

The Walls

Oh my goodness I had such trouble trying to get the Faux Barnwood Technique for the Stampoutique challenge to work, this was my 5th attempt, I was either using too much paint and/or glue or not enough, sigh, it turned into a bit of a monster. Which got me thinking about horror movies which I am not a huge fan off especially when there is something in the house that turns on lights or moves furniture or eats you. Can you see where I'm going with this hehehehe. Anyway I hope you like the card.

Baby & Bunny

The StampTV colour challenge this week was for creme de menthe, lemon drop and red hot. I am not sure how correct my colours have turned out but I thought they looked really nice on a baby card.

StampTV Sketch Challenge STVSKSP14

Here is my entry for the above challenge, I was messing around with some distress inks trying to get really smoooth sponging, this one turned out the best then I swiped the inkpads across to add some interest, then I added the stamped image which I coloured with copics, I did play around with adding a sentiment but nothing looked right and I like it how it is anyway hehehe.

Pink Fairy

Here is a cute pink fairy card, I made this for one of the StampTV Feb release party challenges. I do love StampTV.

StampTV challenges

Another Sunday night, where do the weeks go. Here are my two contributions for the Stamp Tv challenges this week. Both fairly quick and simple, I completely love some of the beautiful layered, intricate cards that many people make, but when I try to recreate them I find I get to a point when I just can't add any more to the card, my brain screams noooooo hehehe I guess my style is simple.
