Christmas!

My eldest son Matthew has given me some Alice in Wonderland stamps for Christmas - he also gave me a pretty fairy boarder and two lovely fairies sitting gazing (and a necklace) what a spoilt Mum I am :)  here they are "raw" I have coloured them in using some watercolour pencils (thanks Eileen for telling Vicky about them!) now I need to think how to best mount them - I'll post it when it is done.

I'll be back

I haven't given up with my blog, but with Christmas and a dear friend of mine in hospital there has not been much crafting done - however I have been given some new toys to play with so watch this space!

Stamping Fun!

Hi, Brr is still cold isn't it!! here are a couple of my latest.  I found a fantastic American site, but it was real agro trying to get hold of them, now I have I LOVE the sets!

New Ideas!!

I saw this on Create and Craft today and had to have a go!!, take your acrylic stamp block and push it onto your Big and Juicy pad. 

 Lift it up and spritz with water and then push down onto some paper

 It makes a brilliant background and also you can stamp out some beautiful coloured shapes!!

..hours of fun because each blot is different!

This is another idea I saw.  When I bought these templates /masks I was a bit disappointed with the results I got, but to my surprise I found out that you can emboss with them as well!!

Take one template

Make a sandwich of Tab 1, cutting plate, template, paper, no more shims mat and then the other cutting plate,

 Hey Presto!!

13" of snow so a-crafting we must go!!

I'm not going to be outdone by Eileen and her big and juicy!!
