Bright and cheerful - Sweet Stampin'

Morning all,

Let's brighten up the gloomy, cold and snowy yuckiness that is this morning (at least here in the UK) shall we? Our new theme over at Sweet Stampin' may help with that, as this week we're looking for your bright and cheerful creations.

Now, I don't normally do bright colours so much - I tend towards the grunge and the pastel usually - but I ended up making this birthday card for my father-in-law, and figured the orange was pretty bright!

I do miss Kenny K stamps :(

So, I hope you guys have lots of bright colours just waiting to be shared. if so, don't forget to come play with us!

Have a fantabulous day!

spots and dots - Sweet Stampin'

Hello everyone, and a happy new year!

Apologies for the late post this morning. For some reason I had it in my head that today was Monday. go figure!

Anyways, it's the first challenge of the year for team Susan over at Sweet Stampin', and we're looking to see some spots and dots!

I used the opportunity to have a play with a new stamp set I found under the tree (huge surprise, I tells ya. I honestly didn't buy it myself or anything.... ahem...). It may or may not be a Tim Holtz set I've had my eye on for ages.

I watercoloured the image. Yep, me. watercolours. Wonders never cease... And then I added it to a card with some torn papers, and finished it off with one of Sir Tim's fantastic Snarky Sentiments.

Over to you. come and play along with us, and show us your spots! Hehe... (addition of snark is optional)

Have a fantabulous day!
