Hello.  Welcome.  Got a bit carried away with the glitter glue.  Added a bit, then a bit more,  then had a bit of a glitter glue blitz. 

I stamped Penny Black's Snowman and masked.  I stamped Rubber Dance Pine Fir Yew stamps.  I used the Eraser Berries technique to add the red berries.  I coloured the parcel with sharpies and used a gold pilot marker for the stars.  Then I went a bit crazy with the glitter glue.  Bling!!

Hello.  Welcome.  I was over to Scrapelyst and they have a sketch challenge this month and there was one that leapt right out at me.  I thought immediately about Memory Box Tiny Bubbles die.   Forgot how tiny it is!!!   So I decided to make an ATC.  I also wanted to join the Repeat Impressions colour challenge so pink, blue and yellow it is...........

I stencilled on the yellow card with white paint through Memory Box sprinkles stencil and then pressed a piece of blue card onto the top to pick up the paint off the stencil.  I used the blue for the base and I stamped the yellow with the Unity planet stamp.  I fussy cut the planet, paper pieced the ring in pink and added some yellow rhinestones.  I cut blue and pink card with Memory Box Tiny bubbles die.  The sentiment is also from Unity stamps.  I edged the ATC with archival black ink. 

I was inspired by  this sketch from Scrappelyst - Kortskisser 10

Well, That May Be A First

Hello.  Welcome.  Gosh, me again.  I think I may need to do this more often!!  Loving my twine wrapped block and since it's a matter of put it away or use it, well...... let's use it.  

And another bloke card.   I might get to like this.  Mojo at full speed and using the stash....  I masked the bottom of the card using a piece of ripped paper.  Maybe I should have ripped it a bit more unevenly since the 'grass' at the bottom is a bit straight.  But then again, can't play football unless the grass is clipped!  So I went with the Mowed Lawn distress for the top half, stamped with the twine wrapped block, then Pine Needle distress for the bottom part, again stamped with the twine wrapped block, but I over-stamped lots to get the closer texture.  The football dude is from Panduro Boys set, stamped on a piece of card salvaged from a teabag box, fussy cut and playing in patriotic red, white and blue.  The sentiment is from MFP Paper Doll Paige set.  

Thanks for dropping by.  Again.  Shall I stop now?  Or just change technique???   It seems a pity to waste the mojo........   Hugz

Hello.  Welcome.  So I had fun with my twine wrapped block, and since it was all good to go I decided to play again.  So I inked it up with Scattered Straw distress, but of course, blue plus yellow equals green!!  It looked like bamboo stems.  Well, a little bit like bamboo stems, so bring on the tiger.....

I stamped MFP Tiger, masked him and the edge of the panel and stamped the background.  Then I cut with the stitched rectangle die, but it was a bit subtle so I decided to doodle a border.  The tiger is coloured with distress ink and the happy birthday is from the same set.

Hello.  Welcome.  Another fun challenge at MFP with the Twine Wrapped Block technique and The Craft Barn want something a man does over the bank holiday.  Hmmmm, man card.......

Spotted this golfer in the Panduro Man set.  Love that kinky club.  Decided to use Memory Box Golf Landscape die and keep it monotone blue.  I made the background using my twine wrapped block and Salty Ocean distress ink on blue card.  The Let's Play is from MFP Paper Doll Paige set.  I stamped it in blue first but it was a bit pale so I overstamped in black, that's why it looks a little blurred LOL.  I cut the panel with Simon Says Stamp stitched rectangle die.
