Sing and dance and new PPRS stamps



Still on the scheduled posts for this weeks Allsorts challenge where Helene has set us the theme of using our 'Masks and Stencils' and we have a fab new sponsor Ace Envelopes who are offering a £25 Amazon Voucher to one luck winner - how cool is that !

And over at Prickly Pear there is a three day blog hop going on here to celebrate the release of the new stamps and dies. I am not taking part this time round due to being on holiday but I do have a card to share with you today using one of the new stamps myself and the DT have been playing with the last few weeks. And I will be sharing more of the new stamps in the coming weeks.



So for my Allsorts piece it's  more lovely inky indulgence with a a background created with Dylusions and distress inks then grunge paste through a Timmy mask and an arch window stencil through which I sponged distress inks, some random stamping with a Penny Black stamp, two sections of a Penny Black sentiment and Penny Black Bashful die daisies cute from a piece of card sprayed with the same colour dylusions.

And for my Prickly Pear piece Pan Pastels, some masking and the stamps as listed above

Have a lovely weekend everyone.
