funky flowers

Morning, a bit of a cold start but the sun is out now and it's starting to warm up..

Today I have used a stamp from a set called FUNKY FLOWERS I just love these stamps and they are a favourite of mine, they stamp so perfectly.. I cut three  hexagon shape's  using a die..one for the card one to stamp on and one to mount my image on..  Coloured the image using Promarker's  and i have paper pierced  the flowers.. added a bit of glitter and a birthday sentiment.. I am entering my card into the following challenges

Every cloud

I was looking through my stamp collection yesterday after I saw a card that my friend has made  for a challenge and it inspired me into making this card,  the stamp is a Woodware stamp I have had for ages and hardly ever used.. I cut a hexagon shape card to stamp on..cut out a couple of clouds using a memory box die, and coloured with promarkers the sentiment came with the stamp set.. I am entering my card into the following challenges

You are so Tweet....

Today I have been over to see my friend and after we had a good chin wag we finally got down to crafting, I have just been given the CRAZY BIRDS  off my daughter for my birthday, which is not until June, but she knew I was dying to get my hands on them...I am really out of my comfort zone with this technique, but I must say I absolutely love it... my friend had already made a few cards with these crazy birds and used the BRUSHOS as a back ground, well I was just blown away with them how you add one colour then spray water next minute there's all different colours , so here we have it my first ever card using the Brusho's, these are one item I really need..

Enjoy your Birthday...

Hope your all having a lovely easter and not eaten to many easter eggs... lol. Today I have used one of my new stamps from Penny Black I do love there stamps this one is called APRIL in PARIS... I used wild honey to distress the background and coloured the image with promarkers, then mounted the image on to a doily. Then added a birthday sentiment. I don't think this needs much more. Although it's not my usual card i do quite like the look of less is more... I would like to enter this card into the follower ing challenges...

Best wishes

Hope all you mums out there have had a lovely Mother's Day, my children are far away but i did get cards from them and presents too, so I was very happy. I have used yet another Penny black stamp and I think this will be the last one for  now, I just love hedgehogs , this card started out as a male card which I don't make , but as you can see it, ended up with flowers and dimatie's, I need to buy myself some male stamps and try harder I think.. My papers are just left over bits I am trying to use up...
