From far away, a friendly light
Fathers' Day this weekend, so a masculine card this afternoon. I love this stamp - used grey ink to stamp the image and pencil to colour it, then trimmed down to fit a tall navy card and framed it in red. I am playing along with Watercooler Wednesday WWC235 - Marsha's Masculine "Anything Goes" challenge. Thanks for visiting, I really appreciate it. - happy stamping
Christmas Wishes Tag
Time for making a couple of tags, my second one for Christmas... playing along with Jingle Belles Rock challenge - Tag, You're It. I used a smooched and stenciled background from my stash - the blues and purples has silvery dots all over. Then I strip of matching washi tape to ground my die cut Christmas tree, decorated with purple and silver gems. To finish I stamped and silver embossed my sentiment and tied on some silver cord. Thanks for visiting I really appreciate it - happy tag making.

Live Laugh Love Tag
Initially I thought I didn't have a flamingo in my stamp stash, but was happy to find this one in a tropical set in a magazine freebie - it also included my coconut cocktail - stamped these, coloured with pencils and fussy cut. I die cut the top of the base tag with part of a label die and founds some bright PP for the background. Finished off with a stamped sentiment and twine. I am playing along with TAG, You're It challenge #94 - Summer Splash. Thanks for visiting, I really appreciate it - happy tag making.

Wishing You a Very Happy Birthday
Earlier in the week I had fun with this solid butterfly stamp (here), I muffed the edge of this one so trimmed it down and framed it with brown card onto a bright matching yellow card base. To finish I stamped on my sentiment in black. I am playing along with Seize the Birthday with Toppings - Butterflies .... and also to Virginia's - Show and Share event.

Cherish Friendship
I sprayed this stencil piece at the beginning of the month and it has been waiting on my desk for some inspiration to finish it. I used Perfect Pearls Mist and it gave a lovely shimmery finish, so I decided to team it with a silver metallic card and framed with creamy pearl metallic paper. Next I die cut my sentiment three times with the top layer from the same silver as the card base, then glued them together for dimension... I finished with an extra stamped sentiment and two die cut butterflies.
I am posting to CAS Stencil August challenge - use Sprays with your Stencil.
