I am pleased to say I am through to Round Three and voting for that starts in a day or so....I will add a link, but voting is BLIND so you will not know which one is mine...unless you think you can recognise my style!

Prima Mixed Media Doll Stamp...


Tracy @ Dies to Die For recently took delivery of the Prima Mixed Media Doll Stamps....and I was lucky enough to find one in the my DT pack....You can find here HERE. I stamped her onto Craftwork Cards Digital Cardstock with a Tuxedo Black Memento Ink pad and coloured her skin and hair with Copics using the following colours...
Skin - E000/E00/E11/R20
Hair - 100/C3
I then stamped her again onto patterned paper from the Teresa Collins Now & Then 6x6 paper pad. I used a luggage tag from any stationery shop and added the papers from the pad, together with a doily and some gorgeous lace ribbon and seam binding and a flower. The words have been cut from one of the sheets of paper in the pad.

I have found a fab Pinterest board showing so many fab examples with this stamp...will definitely be making some more.

Mo Manning - Cupcake Thief!



So.....Who Stole The Sunshine!!!!


Today I am showing a card I made with the Mo Manning (for Stamping Bella) called Cupcake Thief.

I have stamped her onto Craftwork Cards Digital Cardstock using Memento Ink in Tuxedo Black and coloured with Copics. The papers are all from the new My Minds Eye 6x6 pad called Find Your Wings & Fly - Skys the Limit....it doesn't appear on the website at the moment...so drop Tracy an email...I expect it is an oversight. I layered them with some Bazzill Kraft cardstock. I added a doily, some lace and a Craftwork Card sentiment.

Make sure you pop on by tomorrow as I have plenty more to show you....
