Good Junk !


Hope everyone is having a fab Easter and thanks to all followers and commenters for their support, I really do appreciate it.

Here is another 6 x 4 inch postcard done as part of a swap over on UK Stampers Forum.  I decided to do a colourful collage.






I used digi prints, stickers and stamping with micron pens to complete it.  Some white was added with a Signo white pigment pen (Thanks Jan !!)





The postcards are sent 'naked' through the post so care needs to be exercised when putting dimensional elements onto them. I always spray with matt acrylic sealant to secure.




The theme had to include a crown somewhere so you can see mine easily !

Blocky Flowers



Happy flowers to everyone, especially when it's their birthday.  This birthday card was made on a Kraft card square card base. The papers were assembled as shown and the base layer was sewn with white thread.





The remaining layers were stamped and cut with a set of Sizzix dies and Distress Inks.  They were layered and embellished with some coloured pearls. A couple of birdies were also stamped and die cut  and applied.






The sentiment plate was stamped and layered and applied on foam pads.
