Simplicity Sunday - Card by Dot

It is Simplicity Sunday over on the Rubber Dance blog.
Today it's my turn for a little inspiration.


The stamps used are all from Dancing Star.

The background in the center panel is from some left-over scraps when playing with Distress Oxides.
We all have a little stash of left-overs don't we? They come in handy sometimes.
The background took a little working out on some scrap paper. But the swirls and background fit beautifully when you stamp twice down on one side, once across the top and once across the bottom, and then twice down the other side.
I then trimmed the card and coloured in the stars and swirls.

The words are from the same set too.
I had to add 're to the word you so that it reads correctly.

Stamps played with are from:
Dancing Star

Other Products Used:
Distress Oxides
Jane Davenport markers


Thank you so much for stopping by today.
Happy Stamping!

Thanks Ingunn, I was so happy when it all worked! I don't often get to do any colouring in, so it was a challenge to not go outside the lines lol.

Always Sparkle - Envelope Book Tutorial by Sue

Image
Good afternoon and happy Saturday, welcome to the weekend! It's Sue here with my envelope book. Making your own books and journals is very popular at the moment, and I wanted to have a go. I also wanted to use supplies that I had already as it's just after Christmas and I'm already in 2022's craft budget. So I have quite a few of these -  Colour Craft lustre paints. Loads of these - rather posh DL pearlised envelopes. I bought a box full in a closing down sale, so have a box full less 3! And these, my favourite bright StazOn inks. So to work (well play really, I'm making it all up as I go along) I started by painting my envelopes with the paints, then added some stencilling in a contrasting colour. I've used totally different colours so that I've got a choice of colours for my toppers. I've used metallics on this one and they are really nice! For the 'in between

Penguins Playing

Hi everyone, I hope you have enjoyed the Christmas and New Year season and are raring to go in 2018.  The best part of having stamps is just having fun with them! So my cards today are all about having fun. The  Playful Penguins  have been catching my eye for some time. After making one card, the penguins kept looking at me - so I made another one! I couldn't decide which one to post so I'm sharing BOTH cards with you today. The background for this was super easy - it was some scrap card from playing with my gelli plate.   Now it's fair to say that I really have no idea what I'm doing when I use my gelli plate, so everything is accidental.  I like it that way though, it's fun to just enjoy the process and to not over-think it. Then it was as simple as adding some stenciling, embossing and stamping.  The penguins were stamped onto some scrap card left over from playing with distress oxides, and cut out. The penguins were defined a little with
