its the weather for Beer

Sometimes making new friends means you can send them older designs of cards because they will have never seen them and that means you get to recreate some of your favourites too. I call that a win win lol. 

Neighly 8

Another creative fabrica digital stamp and the reason I printed a whole sheet lol. I had an idea for my horse mad cousin and suprisingly it looks exactly as i hoped.

Blender Brushes the return of the rainbow

Another blending brushes card and one made in the sections of the rainbow theme, as I’m writing this post I can feel the urge to make more returning but the million dollar question is monochrome or rainbow lol

Grumpy Coffee Cat

I bought this stamp set for this sentiment and of course I needed to use the main image and my friend has the fluffiest black cat ever and he is grumpy too so it was a match made in heaven.

Magical Time

Sort of a revisited idea except I changed it up a bit, this image is lovely to colour and for those difficult tweenagers it’s perfect. I didn’t buy this stamp set for this image so I’m not sure why it’s the first one I used lol.

Dino-Mite

Not a revisited idea, woohoo, although I have made this style before but not with this set, it does make me want to make more with all the clearly besotted or jenoblade MFT sets lol.

Christmas Wreath Green

Not much to say here except I ran out of red bases so decided to try the green and I really like it. This was one of the first designs I made this year and I might make more ready for next year as it was so effective.

Christmas Wreath

I used the larger limetree cards again this time the red ones and made a few of this design, I am trying to only make smaller batches this year as I need to use some of the hundreds of christmas stamps and dies I own. Lets see if that is still the case at the end of december lol.

I used the hero arts wreath stencil, I was originally going to over stamp with the stamp set but decided it worked exactly as it is.

 

Another galaxy but different universe

I made this at the same time as the other galaxy background, makes more sense if you are going to get all the stuff out to make more than one.

Went with a different sci-fi theme for this one and an image I’ve used before too. It’s not often that images get used more than once or even once around here lol.

A long time ago in a galaxy far far away

I watched a friend create a galaxy background and it had been a while since I made one so I thought why not, did it work like I hoped, no, will I be making more, probably lol. I do need a better white paint/spatter so I am looking for options.

The image is from Mayzy and is probably 10 years old, I loved her drawing style and it was a dream to colour.

Happy Accident

I was sat on a call looking for an image I had printed when I came across this one, it screamed rainbow to me so I listened and made a very rainbow inspired card. The stencil was still on my desk from the girlie cards I had made so this card and it came together very quickly.

Zebra Stripes

Wow this has been in my drafts for 2 years!!! Not sure why it didn’t get shown during my rainbow stripes stage but here it is in all its glory.

White Wine

Woohoo the last of this design at least it is when I am typing this post in September last year, who knows I might have revisited it and made a load more lol

I wish I had made the wine a different colour combo but it does look more of a match in real life than on here

Gin Glass

This is one of the failed backgrounds for the gin bottle card from my last post but I do think it worked perfectly with the gin glass from the stamp set. Looking at this card does make me want to make more lol

Let the fun BeGin

So this card wasn't as easy as the others as Gin has no real colour so I went with a sort of lime juice splatter, of course this resulted in about four other backgrounds whilst trying to find the correct colour so expect to see those soon.

Latte Love

And so the obsession resumes lol. I made this card at the same time as the beer/bike/wine ones last year but waited until after the persons birthday to show it. The colour of the coffee cup is different to one I would have chosen but I was challenged to make a peach mug whilst on a call with friends. I am amazed that the first time I use this stamp set the company is no longer trading which is a shame as it works so well

Rainbow stripes but different

A take on my rainbow stripes, I’m not sure where the idea came from but I do like it a lot. I’ve been clearing out my old photos and I’m sure this was from last year. There might be a few older posts as I get back on track with the creating. I always struggle in January to get back into the swing of creating but once I do there is no stopping me and of course I have new goodies too lol.

Floral Vase - Purple and Aqua

The final one for now and combining two of my favourite colours, I think if you haven’t tried the stamp and stencil combo you definitely need to especially if you don’t like to colour

Floral Vase - Purple and Pink

So this one I discovered I could use multiple colours and looking at it I’m wondering why I never went rainbow lol. I didn’t make multiples of this colour scheme which now I’m writing this I have no idea why. It’s been almost a year since I made them but I think I should make some more

Floral Vase - Aqua

My second attempt and with my favourite colour too. It still works and I still like it lol.

It’s a perfect card for the ladies in our lives, especially the green fingered ones lol.
