It's the first Sunday of the month so time for our new challenges at We Love Chocolate Baroque and Stamping Sensations. Our themes for October are Anything Goes and Autumn Glory.
A heads up that Chocolate Baroque's Lesley will be back on our screens this coming Friday 9th October and Stamp Addicts our SS sponsor will be on Hochanda on 24th October, so yes I've been super busy with DT makes.
The top image is the front of a book I created using my much neglected Zutter and using the new Blueprint stamps Lesley launched on Hochanda in September. Lots of Oxides, stencilling, texture paste and all four of the new sets, Chrysanthemum Blueprint, Allium Blueprint, Lupin Blueprint and Echinacea Blueprint plus Collection 1 stencils. The inner pages are further down my post.
This is my Stamping Sensations creation using several Stamp Addict stamps who are our sponsors there this month. The horses and man ploughing and background hills are really old sets called Gypsy Caravan 2 Set and Rolling Hills but still current sets to purchase. The colour has been built up with a mixture of Pan Pastels and regular DI's and Distress Markers for colouring in.
We also have a second sponsor at SS, our own DT Dora who designs her own fabulous images and above is my (rather pathetic) efforts at colouring her Apples with Bird. Colouring in and me just don't go together in the same sentence, I find it sooooooo hard. But the image is lovely Dora.

Un sacco di bellissime creazioni per Hochanda!! Anche io ho una rilegatrice e non me lo ricordo mai... :) Bellissimo libro!! Anche le pagine interne sono stupende con gli splendidi fiori e mi piacciono proprio tanto i tuoi background a stencils!!
ReplyDeleteLa card scenica è davvero stupenda, sai che adoro i tuoi paesaggi campestri!!! Quegli uccellini sul filo sono meravigliosi stagliati sullo sfondo luminoso!!
Dora ha molto talento, il suo uccellino sulle mele è delizioso e la tua colorazione rende il tutto molto realistico.
Un abbraccio, a presto :)
