Bunny goes boing!...

Hello everyone!

It's Fri-yay! which means tomorrow is Satur-yay and I get to spend all day with my best craft buddies at Faye's Copic Workshop and Tracy's (DTDF) pop up shop!

Lovely Kat and I are driving down tomorrow morning so let's hope for fair weather!

I have been so excited about showing you all this card I made for wonderful

Whimsy Stamps 

new release because this bunny really bounces! (:

I coloured this beautiful

Easter Bunny Hopping by Lee Holland 

with Copics, cut him out and fixed him to the card design with a wobble spring!  Which means he actually bounces and boings!!!

(I tried and failed to add a video here - I'll try and get some technical help and have another go)!

Happy Thursday everyone!

I have something a bit different to show you today.

This card is one of a set I made with some lovely 

Dies To Die For 

goodies

last year for Making Cards Magazine.

I stamped a gorgeous background stamp, heat embossed it and then painted it with distress inks; then that done, I die cut the painted panel to create the owl design.

A fisherman's tale!.

Hello everyone - Happy Sunday!

Hope you are all safe and well!

We've certainly had some wild weather in the South West this last week!

We were snowed in for a couple of days but it was n't too bad, I think we got off lightly really!

I'm here today with a beautiful new release stamp from 

Whimsy Stamps

DoveArt's spectacular 

Large Mouth Bass

I am completely entranced by this image and I absolutely loved colouring it and making this card.  It now lives with a fisherman friend of our's who recently celebrated his 60th Birthday.

Some of the detail sadly doesn't show up on the photo - I added some Clear Wink Of Stella to the fish to make them appear shimmery and added some Glossy Accents to look like water droplets.
