Dauber Bunch

Hi all and hope you're having a lovely lazy Sunday :-)

I recently bought a fab Hero Arts Dauber Bunch Stamp Set and some new Ink Daubers and couldn't wait to try them out :-) My first effort went straight in the bin ,,, a 2 year old would have done better,, but thats how we learn eh ! :-)

The theme on the Less is More Challenge is Yellow and Green so that was my starting point. I love yellow,,, the colour of spring :-)

Do I get extra Brownie points for One Layer ?? haha :-)

I really like the simplicity of this and think I'll make several in different colours and use a variety of sentiments to give to my Mum,, make her a little box :-)

Thanks for looking ! :-)

Simon Says 'March' Card Kit + Craft Room Update :-)

Hi all :-) The March Card Kit from Simon Says Stamp landed on my doorstep a few days ago and as I have been decorating and fixing up my craft room my desk has been out of action. I finally managed to clear an area, so I opened the kit, WOW ,,, LOVE this one !! I always enjoy the lollipop while perusing the contents and thinking about what I will make first ,,,, :-)

This months flavour was Strawberry Splash ,, yummy,,, but my fave is the Blueberry one :-)

Apologies for the photography, it is a grim miserable day and the lighting was terrible.
I followed this weeks fab sketch on the Splitcoast Stampers Site :-) Everything I used was in the kit with the exception of the googly eyes,,, I couldn't resist adding those :-)

And this is the kit !! Isn't it GORGEOUSSSS :-) I love the stamp set and the bright cheerful papers and cardstock :-)

Would you like to see my craft room ? It isn't quite finished as some cupboards were out of stock so I have to wait for them to be delivered next week, but I am really happy with how it is coming along :-) Please excuse the tin of paint in the corner :-)
