Birdz with Lisa

Hi lovely stampers! Lisa here and a huge welcome to today's blog post for The Artistic Stamper. 

This month's theme is 'Birds and Bees'. 

The stamps I used from The Artistic Stamper were Neil Walker's A6 Birdz set and Mini Backgrounds #3.

And here is my creation...

I started with a white piece of card and added colour using Gelatos. Then stamped one of the mini background stamps from set #3 using black Ink. 

I stamped the birds on to white card with black ink and heat embossed with black embossing powder. Then fussy cut them out.

Thanks for popping by. If you would like to pop over to my blog for a toot, the link is here ---> Lisa's Blog

Toodles for now,

A Girly Card - well sort of.. by Debs

Hi Everyone, I hope you are all enjoying the sun as much as i am.

With the sun, comes nice and bright cheery colours and i really made the most of them on this card.

I used some watercolour paper as my substrate and added dark and light pink, and orange paints randomly over each other until i was happy, making a few circles of paint with my fingers as i went along.  I used Amsterdam paints but any acrylic will work.

Over the top of the main body of pain i stamped the mini hexagon and dots background stamps using both pink paints

and black ink.  I also popped some paint through a couple of stencils as well, and then did the same thing over a small tag.  Before i painted the tag i added some of the wonderful washi tape that is currently in stock. I also used an old credit card with the light pink to add some marks and also  using the calligraphy mat 11 stamped with the light pink paint.

I finished off the tag by adding Trish Latimers World Girl One and used the same colours to colour her in.

I shall look forward to seeing your creations after all there is still a week left so plenty of time, if you haven't entered already!

Happy crafting

Love, love, love... by Debs

Hi Everyone

Is it really February already!! Despite the cold air usually associated with February, there is always some warmth around the 14th!!

I love it when Jennie releases new stamps, and i have a rule that i don't put new things away until have used them.  

I started by using the new Seth Apter Paint set from PaperArtsy and just used the four colours in the set Mud Splat, Green Patina, Key Lime and Smoked Paprika, believe it or not the base coat was Mud Splat!

I used the a couple of the new mini background stamps from sets #2 and #3

and randomly stamped with some of the paint 

I stamped the new Neil Walker mini heart onto tissue paper with black archival ink, and used the       6 x 6 word mask to stencil Love on with some of the Green Patina paint.

i shall look forward to seeing all of your lovely projects.

Happy crafting and enjoy

Debs
