Sadly it's Chris's last week with us in the Designer Spotlight, I always feel a little sad when our guest month is up but I know we will keep in touch and remain friends :-) XXX Thanks Chris XX 

I made a card using Tim Holtz Wine Blueprints as the main focus. I know so many people who this set is just perfect for, me included 😋🍷 


For the background I used White Yupo Paper and Key West Alcohol Inks to create a marbled effect and then layered the panel on Simon's Exclusive White and Schoolhouse Red Card Stock. 

I coloured the bottle and glass using Distress Inks 

I used a Perfection Die, which I have to say I think worked perfectly (😜) with this set and I wrote the words to complete the sentiment. I  finished by adding a couple of strips of Washi Tape and machine stitching around the edges.


and I finished the inside using a Simon's Exclusive Cheers Die, which I also things works perfectly with the stamp set!! 

Cheers to YOU!!

House Mouse Anything Goes/Back To School

It's time for a new House Mouse and Friends Challenge. This time I am the hostess and the theme is 

Anything Goes 
with the option of Back To School!


I used this super cute Pencil Sharpener Cling Stamp and made a notebook ;-)


I cut down some cardboard backing from an A3 scrap paper pad and covered this with Wild Rose Studio, Papercraft House, Natural Textures Paper Pack

I also used a Simon's Notebook Edge Die to add some interest and used a text background stamp on the kraft and patterned paper panels. I then masked the mouse and stencilled a woodgrain design behind the image. 


I didn't take a photo of the inside but I simply glued in an A5 shop bought notebook.


I also made a bookmark using a Friend Wishes Clear Stamp Set
Being a Yorkshire lass (and that being my name on Splitcoast Stampers) I couldn't resist using this book for the photo prop ;-) 


I used a Simon's Exclusive Stitched Banner Die and splattered with Distress Resist before blending Worn Lipstick and Spiced Marmalade Distress Oxide inks 



Thanks for looking! You have until MN EST on 7th July to join in!
