By the Tide

By
So - we've been on the open sea and now it's time to dive beneath the the waves and take a look at some cards with underwater creatures on them using the By the Tide stamp set. I'm still following a male theme so I've used sea colours - come and sea(!!!!!)



Even the names of the inks are watery - I've used Bermuda Bay and Island Indigo!

After scouring the blogs for a suitable challenge I found one over on the Simon Says Stamp challenge blog where the challenge is to 'Make it Masculine'.

I spent a wonderful few hours this afternoon purging my craft stash. As most of my crafting equipment has been arriving sporadically in boxes it's been taking a little while to get it all sorted. 
It's all unpacked now and put away however it's given me a good excuse to go through everything and get rid of a lot of rubbish! I've also found LOADS of unfinished projects - guess I'm going to be busy for a few weeks trying to finish them off!

Thanks for stopping by today - see you soon x

Yikes - I'm a bit late posting today, but when I got into my studio this morning I had forgotten that it looked like this I had a big family lunch yesterday and 'cos our house is so small, I have to keep stuff moving from room to room in order for there to be enough space. 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
