Feeling Blue

Hi there,
I'm back with another card featuring my favourite little dragonfly.  This time I stamped him in blue ink and resisted the urge to colour him in :)
I have a bit of a thing for pinstripe so I'm loving this pinstripe paper!




















Thanks for coming by today!

Sweet Dragonfly

I'm back with another card I made earlier in the year. I absolutely adore this little dragonfly image; it came as part of a set with butterflies and other dragonflies but in throwing out the packaging, I threw out the brand name too - oops! It's most likely a Kaisercraft stamp set, but don't quote me!!


I quite like this colour combo of red & chocolate brown with just a hint of colour penciled in on the stamped image. By the way, those brad-looking things in the top right corner are just little punches of cardstock that I made with my eyelet punch - so simple, yet quite effective I think :)

It's really starting to warm up here and last night was one of those hot sticky nights where you just can't sleep. Am hoping I get a better sleep tonight because right now I can't seem to stop yawning. Perhaps coffee will help...

Thanks for stopping by.

Small Wonder

Hello, I'm back with another card from the archives.  This one I made for friends who had just had a baby boy.  The gorgeous bear is a digi stamp that I downloaded free from the net but I can't for the life-of-me recall where I got it from - if this is yours, please let me know so I can give you credit. 

It's such a fun image for a baby card - he's so cute i just want to give him a squeeze!!  Plus it's super easy to paper-pierce which is what I did here.  I really love how this one turned out. 



Hope you have a lovely day :)
Sheryl

Supplies:
Stamps: Whimsical Words (SU!), Bear digi stamp
Cardstock & Paper: Chocolate Chip (SU!) and gingham DSP from my stash
Ink: Chocolate Chip (both SU!)
Other: Nestabilities circles & scallops

Blog-land Debut

Ready or not, here i come!!!!!! 

It's my first official post in blog-land {eeeek!!} and I'm kinda quite excited about it!  I've been taking photos of the cards I've been making for ages in readiness for when I finally got around to setting this blog up, best laid plans and all that.  So without further ado, here's a card I made earlier this year...



















Trendy Trees (SU!) is one of my favourite stamp sets - it's perfect for masculine cards and i just love the two-colour look that two-step stamping allows. 

Thanks for being a part of my first post :)
