I prefer the colouring on this version of my Paper Smooches Promenade stamps, but clearly my black ink needs replacing :|

When I was colouring in all of the shapes for this card I coloured plenty of spares and so this card came together very easily.

So I've been trying to use up old papers, get better at matching my copics to my papers and generally improve my topic colouring... this bright creation is the result (the lesson: I should aspire to only one of three).

A while ago I won a Paper Smooches challenge, and with my prize I ordered the Promenade set from Paper Smooches, and since I've been ill I haven't really used it.

However, I'm now feeling a little more like myself and so broke this set out for the first time, and spent a few happy hours colouring in :)

bonjour

I've ben trying spattering of watercolours... subtle, and I'm not entirely sure that I like it, but I've made a cute card with these adorable Lawn Fawn Gleeful Gardens stamps & dies.

A little late to the Wednesday party, but I'm addicting this to the Simon Says Stamp 'Anything Goes' Wednesday challenge... (on a monday...)

great chemistry!

I've been looking though my Lawn Fawn stamps looking for sets that I really love but haven't used much and found Science of Love. Being a chemistry lecturer at a university I just fell in love with the glassware in this set, and wanted it to be the feature of my card.

I have Stampin' Up inks from years ago when they had 1" cubes and it was an economical and space savvy way to get a lot of colours, and I used some of the brighter ones here and coloured the flasks in using copics.

The challenge this month at Seven Hills Crafts is to make a card with more than one fold... this worked really well for me because my mother has recently given me a copy of Tattered Lace magazine with a mini side stepper card included as the months die.

Now I'm not normally one for Tattered Lace as I find their dies fussy, but my mum knows me well and knows that I love mini cards, so I had a great time playing with this.

The images are all from Lawn Fawn (which I adore) and coloured using Copics.

hello watercolours, I'm late again....

I'm not being very productive at the moment, this is a card I started over a week ago for the Lawnscaping watercolour challenge... needless to say that challenge is missed, but here is the finished card.
