Technique – Stamping

Featuring stamping

Koala-ty friend!

Happy Saturday!

I fell in love with the new koala layering stamps from Hero Arts as soon as I saw them and I was literally stalking the Simon Says Stamp website until they appeared!

I couldn’t wait to ink them up as soon as they landed on my doormat! And who says koalas have to be grey!

I’m entering this into the current Freshly Made Sketches challenge.

Thanks for looking!

You make the world better

Hi everyone!

The theme for the current Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge is ‘a hint of pink’ and I used one of my older Hero Arts stamps with one of my newest ones!

I stamped this in Antique Linen distress ink, as I was practicing my no-lines colouring, but the ink was a little more intense than I had wanted.

After yesterday, I resisted the urge to glitter everything but I couldn’t quite stay away from my Pretty Pink Posh sequins!

My World

Hi everyone!

The theme for this month’s Where Creativity Meets C9 challenge is ‘one layer card’ and here’s my entry. All stamps are by Concord & 9th. I used several shades of disctress ink to add depth to the map and then embossed it. I stamped the sentiment using the gold Delicata ink – love that shimmer!

How does your garden grow?

Hi There!

The theme for this week’s Casology challenge is ‘grow’ and I immediately thought of this older silhouette stamp from Hero Arts! I paired it with an Essentials by Ellen sentiment and mounted it on panel which I embossed using a fabulous new folder from Spellbinders.

I’m also entering this into the current Blog Named Hero challenge (anything goes).

Thanks for stopping by!

Hi everyone!

I love the colour combination for this week’s Color Throwdown challenge (red, orange, purple and yellow) and I made this quick card using the sketch from the current Case this Sketch challenge.

I applied distress ink to a Hero Arts background stamp and spritzed it with Perfect Pearls before stamping to give the panel a little bit of shimmer. The word die is also cut from a shimmery cardstock and is by Winnie & Walter.

A Spring Walk in London

Hi everyone!

The theme for this week’s Less is More challenge is ‘spring walk’. I interpreted it a little differently from others….

Although it has been sunny in lovely London recently, many (most?!) spring walks require an umbrella, so I chose this fabulous stamp from Penny Black for my entry and coloured it with my trusty Twinkling H2O’s for a bit of shimmer.

Thanks for stopping by!
