Add a button - Sweet Stampin'

 Morning all!

It's new challenge time at Sweet Stampin', and this week's theme is add a button.

For my card I chose a fab stamp for Art by Marlene, which I teamed with some Maja Design papers to make a card for my mum (we lived in the Netherlands for some years, and my mum really loves Dutch-themed things).

And of course I added the button and some twine.

So, over to you! dig out your button box and come play along at Sweet Stampin'. We're looking forward to seeing your makes!

Have a fantabulous weekend!

Autumn Colours - Sweet Stampin'

Good morning all!

Time for a new challenge over at Sweet Stampin', and this week we're going with the ever fun colours of autumn theme!

I think I already mentioned this recently, but I just love playing with autumn colours, so for my card I broke out the Distress inks and a lovely stamp from Art by Marlene and made a card with lovely autumnal colours.

I'm not usually a big fan of colouring animals, but this fox was really fun to work with!

Now it's over to you guys. we hope you'll come play with us!

Have a fantabulous weekend!

June challenge - Altered Eclectics

Hello all,

Apologies for the late post today, something went wrong with my scheduling! Oops...

It's time for a new challenge over at Altered Eclectics, and as I've been playing with ATCoins recently, I wanted somewhere to store them.

So I waited patiently for my son to polish off a tube of Pringles (which didn't take very long at all!), and set about turning it into something pretty I wouldn't mind having on display, as I craft in the living room, and pretty much everything is on display there at least for a little while...

And this is how it turned out:

And yes, I did use just about en entire roll of twine on it! But I love how it turned out.

I also made a few more coins, these ones using Art by Marlene supplies.

My plan, rather than trade them, is to write messages on them, and leave them in places for people to find, as part of Flood the streets with Art in November.

And now it's over to you! Come show us your altered art/mixed media work this month, as we'd love to see it!

Have a fantabulous weekend,

Sammy-x
