Hi everyone,
What lovely weather we are having at the moment, don't suppose it will last for the bank holiday weekeend.
I have another Stamping Bella card for you, using the lovely new Basic Grey papers.
Definitely my favourite paper. They are all so lovely and inspiring to work with.
Sorry it's another easel card again, they are my favourite at the moment.
I've used a Martha Stewart punch for the corners, it cuts through Bazzill so easily.
There are so many to choose from at the moment. I want them all but that would be greedy. (I'm also collecting nestabilities and other Spellbinder dies at the moment.)
I've coloured the image with Copics but there is not enough room on the stamp for shading, it's a bit small to get the best from the pens but come in such lovely colours to blend with the papers.
The message is one from Hobbyart, their clear stamps range. They're really nice to use.
A little organza bow and it is finished!!!
Will try and come up with a non-easel card for the next post.
I'm hoping to get a bit of time to play with some distress inks and a paint brush over the weekend. I've been dying to have a play but haven't had chance yet.
Watch this space......
See you soon,

Another Stamping Bella!!

Hi everyone, I thought I better post another card as the last 3 pictures all have the same Bo Bunny papers. I do use other papers!!!
The card today is another of the lovely Stamping Bellas, this time one of the tea-cup girls. She is coloured with Copics and I've used Basic Grey papers, which have got to be my favourite of all papers. (Bought some lovely new ones yesterday from a new collection and can't wait to use them). I've used a Martha Stewart punch on Bazzill Bling and the greeting is from Penny Black.
I made another easel card which is such a lovely design to work with. To finish the card I stamped and coloured some more of the little butterflies from the image and decoupaged them.
These are cards I made for The Craft Barn Minifest last weekend. It was a lovely day and nice to see so many ladies that I haven't seen for a while.
Tomorrow is my first day having Radiotherapy. I have to have 15 sessions which means 15 trips to Guildford which isn't exactly down the road. Never mind, it has to be done. I'm sure it will go really quickly.
I have to start thinking of projects for the June Extravaganza on the 12th and 13th. If I start now, I should get some done!!
See you soon,

OMG how long is it since I put anything on here??I have been kept really busy with classes and demos and have been really lucky to have a couple of projects in magazines.
My favourite craft item at the moment is definitely the Copic Ciaos. They are fabulous for blending and you can use them on card, ribbon, buttons all sorts!! I really like airbrushing with them and must get on with some new projects for the June Extravaganza at the Craft Barn, one for your diaries - 6 and 7 June. There will be lots of demonstrators and some really wicked things for you to see!!
The cards I am posting tonight are two I made for a demo lat week using Copics, Stamposaurus Stamps and the best papers in the world - Basic Grey!! The flowers are coloured with Copics to match the dress. Hope you like them.

Thanks for looking, see you soon, Jane xx
