Ice Cream again

I had found a calendar that my friend Kay made me and one of the pages had this stamped image and I couldn’t not reuse it.

I tried to match the stencil colours to the inks she used and I think it works. I don’t know the make of the ice cream stamp but whoever it is it’s very realistic and almost makes me want to lick the card lol

Ice Cream

The last of the new to me stamps but this did make me want to make more and of course I might have lol.

I did originally go with different pinks but I wanted to try the new saltwater taffy colour and I really like it. The newest colours from Tim holtz have been gorgeous and brighter than I expected which pleases me.

Rainbow Gin

The second of the new to me stamps and another rainbow background, I have enjoyed sitting down and stencilling recently, it’s something I find easy to do whilst chatting with friends and I think that has been why I have so many backgrounds just waiting for the right image.

Rainbow Rose

I recently bought a few stamps from a de-clutter group and even though I think they will look fab copic coloured I went a completely different way lol.

Like normal though once I pop I can’t stop and I used all three stamps in one sitting. I will post those over the next few days so you can decide which one is your favourite lol.

I do kind of wish I had gone with a different sentiment stamp but there is always next time lol.

The big six are 9 version 5

Almost the last one but by no means the least, I do love this combo, purple and teal/aqua kind of sings to me.

Apple Anyone?

Of course when I showed the matching one of these the other day you didn't think she was a one off did you....don't be daft lol. If I have a few littles turning the same age and they don't know/see each other then why reinvent the wheel lol, plus I do think these images are super cute

Slumber anyone?

When I made this card back in early 2022 I was obsessed with this sketch and I am sure you saw lots of examples using it. Of course that obsession was replaced with another and probably by now at least three more lol

Obsessions seems to occupy both my mind and my card making especially since the pandemic started, not sure why making multiples using either a sketch, stencil or image has quelled the deamons but it has/does so long may they continue.

Zipper Die

I really like when MFT re-release some of their stuff especially when it is stuff I already own as the designers show different ways to use them. Styles and designers have changed a lot since these were first released so I decided to revisit them too.

I am not sure where the idea to use the clearly besotted cute abc came from but I am so glad I went that way. you could just as easily add ages too.

I might have to make a few more for those awkward tweenagers lol, maybe even the big six.....

Magic inspired

I really should show this on here before I make the next one for this little one. I used another of the robertos rascal images and I just love his style of drawing. They are so expressive and being a digital stamp so easy to make whatever size you like, I do think i might make her huge next time so I can concentrate on her hair and face.

Waggedy Tail

I bought this set in Florida as I fell in love with their happy faces and I really want to use all the images now.

The design of the card is simple as I wanted the image to stand out and I do love a bit of white space

Motorbike Tire Tracks

Now this one follows the previous posts but I used a different stencil, I didn't think the splatter stencil would work although if I had made it look like mud it might have.

Last one of these until next year and then there are quite a few lol.

Cheers for Beer Again

Whilst I had the stencil and canyon clay colour out I thought why not make a few and I surely did. I enjoyed making these so much and now typing this post I want to make more lol.
