Faery Scrap Tales

*big grin*

I made something! It's taken me long enough I know but who cares! I bought three of the new stamps designed by Elisabeth Bell at Funky Kits when they came out and finally got round to using one! Of course, it had to be the Kitty stamp which I think is adorable! Kitty stamp, gorgeous K & Co McKenna papers, a bit of background paper from Basic Grey 'Sugared', antique cream grosgrain ribbon, SU! ticket corner punch and the 'here kitty kitty' stamp is also SU! I can't remember what the set is called but I believe it's retired now - I bought it and another cat set from a fantastic seller on eBay. Now, this may surprise you but this is for my friend Kitty's birthday! Lol!

















Another 25th today so lots of photos taken for Shimelle's Scrap Your Day project - pretty much the same as last month for me although I got some great photos of the sunset this month. Last month was hideous weather so it's nice to see the sunshine!

Still here!

I've been working away on a circle journal entry and really struggling. My mojo and my enthusiasm seem to have left the country without me - apart from the cj I haven't made anything for days, not even a birthday card for my sister which has to be posted tomorrow!

These are the last 2 cards I made - this one is Lola with bunny from Sugar Nellie colored in with my Prismas, fabulous K&Co McKenna papers, a piece of paper ribbon from a Scrapagogo kit, flowers and brad from my stash & the Happy Birthday stamp is from Stamps Away!


















This one was an experiment and kind of followed a tutorial on SplitcoastStampers - not sure if I like it but never mind! Bazzill cardstock, Making Memories Noteworthy paper and the stamp is from my SU! Doodle That set.

Exhausted!

Well, I had a fab weekend away - I really loved seeing my pal and my beautiful god-daughter Bea. Being in Edinburgh also reminded me how much I love living in Scotland and how much I miss it too :( Oh well, am going back up at the end of May for 3 or 4 days so not too long between visits this time!

I finally got round to using one of my gorgeous stamps from here - I got 2 to start with, one of which looks like it's not for sale any more! This card is made using 'Julia' - I saw a card featuring this stamp on this fabulous blog and then spent about 3 hours tracking down the stamp! This is kind of a cardlift of the one I saw on Amy's blog - it certainly nudged me in the direction of what stash to use! 'Julia' stamp colored in with Prismas, SU! Mellow Moss c/s, Basic Grey 'Sultry' paper and SU! 'Always Artichoke' ribbon - yes, I'm actually using my scrummy SU! goodies instead of hoarding them! Now I've made this card I've had a fab idea for Christmas cards with the same stamp and also birthday cards for all of my book club friends :)
