Singin' in the Rain

By
I haven't joined in the challenges over on Less is More for ages now - today I am going to rectify this. The challenge is a One Layer Card on the subject of Music.
I have an old music stamp in my stash and I thought I would team it up with this lovely new set from Stampin' Up - Rain or Shine. It has lovely umbrellas and 3 rather nice sentiments. I just used on umbrella for this card though - take a look


To keep to the one layer rule - the umbrella was stamped first and covered with a post it note, the music was stamped over the top. A few rain drops were added over the umbrella.
Here is a close up


Materials
Stamps: Rain or Shine
Card Stock: Whisper White
Ink: Melon Mambo, Early Espresso, Black Stazon
Other: Music stamp, Post it notes.
(All Stampin' Up products listed above can be ordered through me and delivered direct to your door. For details please see the top tabs).

I was sifting through a load of photos on my camera and I found this one of my Mum and Dad's cat - she really cheered me up as I thought it looked like she was smiling!


See you soon - Jacqueline xx

Beauty of the Deep

I do love my nature stamps and I also love stamps of the sea whether it be above or below the waves. I have taken possession of a new set from the catalogue called Beauty of the Deep. I have made a card with this set as it lends it's self perfectly to the the new Boho Blue In Colour. It also has a gorgeous little fish which I couldn't wait to use - take a look Although I've mostly used blue ink I had added white highlights with a gel pen and then to finish it off a little sparkly blue gem. Thanks for stopping by today - if you wish to place an order or request a catalogue please drop me a message at  jacquelinenm68@gmail.com

 I have decided to try and get on top of my Christmas cards early this year and so far it’s going well!!! Here is a card that has been made using the Sweet Gingerbread set - I love gingerbread houses and the stamps and matching dies are really cute. I used the sketch from  52 Christmas Card Throwdown  - this is a brilliant Christmas challenge blog (I started it many years ago with Mynn Kitchen) and it’s a perfect way to get organised with Christmas crafting. Thank for stopping by today - see you soon - J xx

In The Frame.

Yesterday was birthday and my lovely husband bought me some crafting stash. Unfortunately he duplicated an ink pad (Distress Ink - Tea Dye) but the craft shop where he bought it were very kind and let me exchange it for something else. That something was a fab little Crafty Individuals stamp. So I raced home, turned my craft room upside down looking for my EZ Mount, and made this card for this week's Less is More  challenge. This week the girls wanted a one layer card with the theme 'In the Frame' Here is my card I made this by first masking off an area in the center of the card - directly on to a 5" x 5" white card blank. Then using my brayer I added some yellow, blue and green ink to the card. The masks were removed and the image was stamped over the brayered square. Thanks ladies for another fantastic challenge - Jacqueline xx.
