Crafty Cardmakers Challenge 218 - All Creatures Great and Small.

Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.
Hi! back again to tell you that it's time for another challenge over
at Crafty Cardmakers.

Marg is hosting today and our challenge is 'All Creatures Great and Small'.

As usual you can enter anything you fancy, it doesn't have to be just cards, as long as it meets the challenge.

 

Hope you will join in.

And here is my project for the challenge:

 

I so love this Woodware stamp.

 

 

These are the papers I used to stamp onto.

 
Then cut out the pieces and built them up like a collage.

 

 

Cut out more to make a slightly different one.

 

 

And here is the first finished card.

 

The sentiment inside is by Paper Artsy.

More backgrounds which will be used later.

So there you have it.

And I hope you will pop over to see what the rest of the DT have been up to and maybe join in the challenge.

I look forward to seeing what you come up with too.

 Happy crafty card making.

WOYWW # 482 What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday.

Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.

Hi Workdesk friends. 
Here we are for another Wednesday at the Workdesk. 
I am here again to show you:
"What's on my Workdesk this Wednesday".

If you don't know what this is all about then please visit the 
Stamping Ground, our host Julia will explain.

So here is my desk for today!

 Not quite what you expected as we've been away for a few days with my parents but didn't want you to miss out on my desk this week even though nothing is really happening.

I am spending this week concentrating on my new camera and my parents of course.
None the less I shall find time to visit you all, it just might take me a bit longer than usual but I'll be there.

A few of you had asked me last week what the Felting Bulb was for so at least I can add some interest to this post.

This is a rubbery container which holds water, it has a metal tube which is pushed inside and this has a rose spout on the end rather like watering can. This piece of kit is used for wet felting and releases the water better than a spray for this type of work but could easily be used for other projects needing a sprinkler I'm sure.

If you need further info about this or want to buy one I have a link here:

So that's me done for today.

 Thanks for stopping by and hope you will pop over and join in the visits around the other desks.

 I'm off soon to see what everyone else is up to.

Have a great woyww 

and 
happy crafting,

Masterboard Monday Using Left-Overs.

 Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.

I am here today to show you a card made with left-over Masterboard:
I coloured a piece of A4 card with shades of red Distress Oxide and used a small section to make a card and as usual the spare pieces just got put away and forgotten.
Well that piece of paper has shown it's face again and has been stamped and revitalised to make this card.

The heart stamp I used on the background is Stampotique so are the little dogs and also the heart bunting along the top. The border stamp and sentiment stamps were free with a magazine.

I have stamped the Stampotique girl (Gooseneck) several times, sections were cut out and attached to the card.

The stamped areas to be coloured were heat embossed to resist the inks used for the colouring.

Small areas were completed using white and red pens and others by adding Stickles Glitter Glue.

I love this make of stamps but they seemed to have got packed away and not used for a while so pleased to have them out again.

I would love to hear your comments.

 

Many thanks for stopping by and happy crafting,
