Iron Who?

I made this at the same time as the fat man card and using the same items too, I love the doctor digi for guy cards, they have the humour without the smut you see in the shops.

Fat man and Bobbin

I was going to go with a different title but the name of the digi stamp sealed the deal lol. I have been on a doctor digi kick recently and I love the expressive look he obtains. I also bought the comic background specifically for this card and I might have used it again too. It’s perfect for all the superhero sets I own.

Later Skater

I was challenged by a few of my friends to make a card in an hour and this was the result, to be honest even with finding all the elements it didn't take anywhere near as long as I thought it would.

I kind of followed the last card I made with this set way back in 2016 but I included a different stencil and I was inspired by the orange of the baby cards I recently made and went with a combo that is very unusual for me but I must say I like it a lot.

Mermaid Reveal Wheel

I intended using the Twila Super hero girl for all the girlie six year old cards but having realised that this particular girl was heavily into mermaids I thought I would use an image that has never seen ink before. 

I of course forgot to stamp the greeting above and below the reveal wheel opening but hopefully she still liked the card.

Same but Different Christmas Cards

You will be pleased to hear there are only two posts of christmas cards remaining. After tomorrow I will try to abstain until December lol.

These three cards are the closest I got to individual cards this christmas, time, mojo and ideas were certainly in short supply this year. I am hoping to rectify that for this year but I think it might just be wishful thinking on my part.

Absolutely Brilliant

I bought this stamp way back when, in fact I think it was when it first came out and I bought it to make a card for this person too lol. I have finally coloured it up, it was a labour of love as it took a while and I had to redo it once too. I have been overstamping with versa fine clair and it really makes the image pop but when I re-stamped this image the first time it wasn't quite in the right place and it left a shadow so this time I decided I wouldn't do that and risk ruining it a second time lol.

The sentiments are from Whimsy Stamps, I visited their retreat in Orlando in June. I didn't attend the retreat but Faye was teaching so as I was in the area I popped in to see her and of course buy some stuff too lol. I bought a set of sentiments called"cheeky" and they suit the british sense of humour so well, of course I didn't know that they weren't being released until August as several friends wanted to buy them lol.

Not much else to say except I hope she liked the card and had a lovely birthday.
