Today I manage to complete a card I have wanted to make for a little while... This card features a digital stamp set from Isabel Cristina Stamps...this set is Santa’s Toy Factory. This is a 5x7 card with a piece of black card stock to help it to stand out more...the brick wall is a stencil I was given and I used Hickory Smoke Distress Ink in varying amounts to give an uneven look...next I took some Heffy Doodle Memo Tape and bordered off the brick and used Antique Linen Distress Ink all over the lower half...after this I took one of a the stamps from Leonie Pujol’s Lots of Texture set and stamped it all over the Antique Linen with Frayed Burlap Distress Ink to give it a look like wood flooring...all of the images have been coloured using my Spectrum Noir alcohol markers. I hope you like it and thanks for stopping by 😊

Well Summer is over and we are racing towards the end of the year and dare I say it...Christmas! So I have a Christmas make to share with you all today 😊 This card features the stamp set that was included with the Christmas 2018 edition of Papercrafter magazine and is also featured inside the magazine so I decided to try and recreate it...To start with I stamped out the house onto white cardstock and then stamped it again onto masking paper which after cutting out was placed over the house image...next I stamped the North Pole sign and the lamppost then I masked them both in the same way as the house...my next job was to stamp the fences which appear behind the other images...the last job was to stamp the two gingerbread people. Before removing the mask from the house I blended some Tumbled Glass Distress Ink to created sky. I used Spectrum Noir alcohol markers to colour all the images and then fussy cut the gingerbread guys and adhered them with Collall all purpose ...
