Sparkle!


 The Circle Dots Background stamp makes a fabulous firework display !!!


I cut a piece of watercolour card to 5 3/4" square as I love working with 6" square cards. I added diluted Luscious Powders in lots of different colours randomly to the stamp. 


I then spritzed the stamp with water to make sure all the luscious was wet, then applied the stamp to the watercolour card. I even managed to get a couple of extra impressions from the stamp for future use.


I decided not to spritz the card as I like the effect and the powders were starting to move on the watercolour card anyway.


 Whilst that was drying I mixed some Purple Luscious Powder in with some Super Thick Slap It On it has a beautiful soft sheen when mixed in, and I couldn't resist adding a little of the Unicorn Sparkles for a little extra glimmer.



I applied the paste through the Sparkle and Glisten Stencil and carefully lined the edge of the watercolour card with some of the green Luscious powder, before setting it on one side to dry.
It was then Matted onto a piece of lilac cardstock slightly bigger than the watercolour card and added to a 6" square card blank, and as always I just can't resist a sequin or two!!


Happy Crafting,

Craft Stamper Magazines - Take It Make It Challenge November - Take A Stamp



Here we are again with another new challenge over at the Craft Stamper Magazine Blog where we are wanting you to share your stamped projects with us.

As always we have a fabulous sponsor who this time around is The Artistic Stamper with a fabulous stamp set.



I love drawing and have done since I was a child, and as some of you know I love to doodle Seahorses, and create mystical underwater scenes, this time with Gelatos. The project is still in my sketch pad, but I'm thinking this one might end up on the wall in my workroom as I love the colours.


I incorporated one of the new stencils from Indigoblu and the fabulous set of stamps designed by Limor Webber called Limor's Circles which I just love and use all the time.

So get stamping and join in with the challenge this month for not only the chance of a fabulous prize, but also chance of being featured in the magazine its self, how cool is that! Please read the entry requirements before adding your link, and have fun with your stamping.

IndigoBlu samples for the Country Cottage Collection


I thought I'd share a few of the samples I made for Jenny Marples Indigoblu show on Hochanda last weekend.


I just adore the little Dormouse Gem designed, and as you can see I used it quite a lot!


The clocks went back an hour giving us an extra hour of crafting time.


I think I need to make one of these for my workroom door, they are so cute.


The Luscious powders are the perfect colours for using on these.


 And who says the laundry room can't be pretty lol.


I think this one should really be in my front porch!!


Such beautiful images and so easy to colour.
