Teething Troubles.

By
I don't know if anyone has noticed but a the top of my sidebar there is a link to my new website where I am going to sell my own clear polymer stamps. They will be my own designs - that is drawn by me and I will also make them. Well - I have all the stamp making equipment, I have the designs and I was just scanning them into my computer when the scanner just gave up and stopped working! So frustrating! So it will be a little while longer before I have any thing to sell.
Today's card is one I made a while ago using a stamp I designed and had made up

This is simply stamped with a Memento ink pad in Tuxedo Black and coloured using Promarkers. Memento ink pads are the only ones I know of that you can use to stop the Promarkers bleeding when you colour. The orchid has been cut out and raised up on some 3D foam pads.
I'm sorry this is very short and sweet today - I have to finish preparing for my workshop, prepare for a meeting tonight and try and fix my stupid scanner - I fear that there will be growling and much gnashing of teeth! - Bye for now - Jacqueline xx.

    Isn't it typical! I think our equipment waits for the right moment before breaking! Pretty stamp Jacqueline!

So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr

 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
