An outing for a couple of old favourites


Morning Peeps, it's mid month inspiration time at We Love Stamping and Stamping Sensations where our themes are 'Anything Stamped' at both along with options of adding Stencilling at the first and Wings and Tails at the other.

My card above is for WLS using my two all time favourite stamps, Stampendous P107 Agapanthus Cluster along with Penny Black Dance, Sing, Love, both pretty old wood mounted stamps. 

After stamping both using Versafine Clair inks I added some 'rays' with a stencil and arranged the mat centrally and added a plethora of flowers around using Two Red Robins dies mostly from the Summer Breeze range and coordinating Reflection sheets. 

Two Red Robins is all about Nature and everything about it made complete sense the other day when it was explained Stephanie came up with the idea during the first Covid lockdown. Most of us humans were restricted to our homes, traffic both on the road and in the air was minimal, pollution levels improved and allowed Nature to have a new awakening, something that was noted Worldwide. Being a lover of all thing Nature I can totally identify with the principal. For those tempted by these super collections you can get a 10% discount using Brenda10 at checkout here.


This one using Mr Fox from AALL and Create In the Wild, an A4 stamp set and one of my favourites, the Rabbit on the set particularly. Some stencilling, washi tape and letters from Grunge Alphabet.


This one for Stamping Sensations following the Wings option used another AALL and Create stamp Exterminiati Sunt, it's a border stamp which has been stamped onto a soft oxide background and then Butterflies and Bee decoupaged.


And just one more for TRR this time using Scarlet Petal, Gus the Mouse and Ditsy Daisy.

Have a good Friday.

Simply beautiful selection of cards

Wow Brenda where to start? They are all beautiful in different ways. I particularly love the first one as that is one of my favourite old stamps too ... love how you have inked with a variety of VFC colours. Also your matting is interesting as I have just received my first set of stitched stencils which is that exact shape ... it looks really good.

Love all the detailing on the first one, so pretty. Your butterflies remind me of the Victorian displays in cases. All encompassing your obvious love of nature.

Ciao Brenda, ho sentito della tempesta che sta arrivando nelle tue zone, spero che non faccia troppi danni e si smorzi in fretta. Statevene in casa al caldo e proteggete gli animali.
Adoro tutti quei fiori disposti a raggiera intorno ai bei dandelions, sono molto realistici!! E che bei colori primaverili!
La card per Two Red Robins è molto originale con quella volpe tra i fiori rossi e i pezzi di washi strappato e adoro il sentiment!!!
Stupende farfalle sulla slimline con i colori solari e poi la mia preferita, l'ultima con le belle carte e fustelle di Two Red Robins, davvero ispiratrice e intensa!
Ti auguro una buona giornata, dita incrociate che possa essere tranquilla nonostante il tempo avverso.

Fabulous and creative cards and extra loving how you've tucked lots of the pretty die cuts behind the central matting layer on your first card. Tons of inspiration, thank you x.

Four wonderful cards again Brenda. I think my favourite has to be the first with the halo of diecut flowers, they look so real, just amazing xx

Mrs.B said...

Stunning cards Brenda, my favourite is the first one, love the design with the die cut flowers, so unusual. Had to check that they weren't real flowers.

Another stunning assortment of cards, Brenda. Those Aall and Create stamps are so unique and fabulous and you showcase them so beautifully! Of course I am loving your "old favorites" too, what a great way to highlight the sentiment with all those flowers surrounding it on the first card!
And another fabulous card with the TRR products! Loving the details on those images!
