Happy everything!

Hi Crafters

I made this CAS card using two new stamp sets.  I went to the Motorcycle museum in March (or was it February...)  for the first craft show since lockdown... its so good to be able to browse and bag some bargains!

Both of these stamp sets are new to me.  The mouse is from Pink ink designs and is called sleepy mouse.  The sentiment is from Claire Manning design.  The solid happy can be used in many colours, but the script bit is interchangeable so it could say happy birthday, anniversary, Easter or in this case just happy everything!

I stamped the 'Happy' in Catherine pooler ink (Royal treatment) and added the scripty bit in versa fine black ink.  The image was stamped and coloured with Copics.

I think the purple just stands out perfectly. 

I have another couple of stamp sets from both designers so will be making something very soon! - if you want to see it first, then please subscribe to my other social media channels as things get posted there more regularly.

Hello crafting friends

Today I'm sharing a super cute birdie card from a stamp set by Catherine Pooler called 'Toucan do it'

I love anything tropical and this set has a parrot, toucan and this gorgeous cockatiel, as well as some beautiful florals.

 I used picked raspberry distress oxide and a dotty stencil in the background and then used a grungy heart stamp from Craftyroo designs to add the black detail.  I then stamped and coloured the cockatiel and some of the flowers from the set, before fussy cutting them out.  I layered them onto a scallop frame die from Lawn fawn (I cut it three times and layered it up for dimension) , continuing to layer up and stick the elements with a combination of glue an foam pads.

Isn't he/she just totally adorable!!
