Using Waiting for the Storm, Poppy, Music and Etched Flourish stamps, Dylusions, and Tonic Punch and Stamp Carnation
First of all welcome to my lovely new followers, I am so pleased you decided to join my inky journey, you are most welcome here. For those of you looking for the Allsorts Blog Hop, please click here.
Well what I can I say because about the weekend, wasn't it wonderful weather here in the UK ? Two Bank holidays on the trot now has to be some kind of record, needless to say the promised rain has arrived this morning but it's a softer blow after three nice days.
I will be quick and to the point and give you a quick reminder that Sarah and Vicky will be the screen at 2pm today on Create and Craft with a new Stamp Addicts show and here are a couple more of the samples I made for the programme.

Beautiful cards Brenda, the flowers on both really caught my eye. You definitely have a talent for making those flowers so realistically.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous, gorgeous cards, Brenda! I love them both! Might have to buy that sentiment - love it! Unfortunately I missed the show. Ended up taking my Dad to get some shoes that will fit him. Hope you got lots of mentions. I think dylusions are top of my list for Doncaster after seeing these beauties!

ReplyDeleteBoth designs are beautiful, and I'm sure you could guess that my favourite is the first one. Love the bright colours, the stamping on the your background and your gorgeous flowers. The 2nd is just as beautiful with a great colour combo. The textured paper over the background is very effective & again great inking with the stencil. Hope you are doing well, Shirleyx
