Morning Peeps, at Allsorts this week Pauline has chosen the theme of 'Add a sentiment' and we have a super prize from Oakwood of a set of sentiment stamps and coordinating paper pad.
Above I have incorporated one my new inspirational quotes (cut into strips using a piece of masking tape to stamp each line) from my Believe stamp set being launched along with another new set on Create and Craft TV on 19th. There are a few old favourites but I have re-arranged those into more usable formats and fonts.
The image is an older AALL and Create stamp set called Daisy Elegance onto a Gelli Plate mop up so fairly subtle, the image is pretty large, I guess A5 as it's one of just two on the the A4 set, added some colour with my newish Distress Pencils and also a pink birdie....artistic licence!
My second card uses the October stamp release on Create and Craft called In Safe Hands and Think Big, I just love these hands designed by Tina and made several with them, here's a few more.

Beautiful work Brenda, the hand stamps are so unique and love how you used them with those wonderful inspirational sentiments! Gorgeous Aall and Create card too! I skipped buying the Distress crayons but got the Distress water-soluble pencils on Friday. Figured they are different from my regular colored pencils and in Distress colors so wanted to give them a try.
ReplyDeleteHow beautiful that first card is with the fragile looking glass and those hot pink blooms! Is it just me or are we all ready for proper pinks now after so long with everything being coral pink?!! Love the hand stamps too and your use of the sentiments. Vicky x
ReplyDeleteSuper cards Brenda, I am particularly taken with the hands and the lovely sentiments you have chosen to go with them. Your "gin distillery" comment got me thinking...none of those close by but apparently there is a brewerey just over the hill at the foot of the Cerne Giant!! Might be worth a look for some man presents!! Hope you are having some good days xx
ReplyDeleteWOW - an amazing collection of stunning cards B. Fab sentiments too. xxx

Beautiful selection Brenda and gorgeous colourways. I am loving that hand and feathers card!!
ReplyDeleteCiao Brenda, come al solito sei stata molto indaffarata con tante card!! Bellissime e molto artistiche quelle con le mani, i sentiments si accompagnano perfettamente con quei timbri e i differenti sfondi le rendono davvero uniche. Adoro la card con le margherite, davvero molto elegante e il tuo sentiment è perfetto con lei!! Il rosa acceso contrasta così bene con lo sfondo vintage e l'uccellino è un tocco delizioso
ReplyDeleteUn abbraccio, Buona Domenica
Your first card is a real stunner, love the bright pink. Great use of those hand stamps too. Three wonderful backgrounds, but I am not so sure about the hands, they are a bit creepy! That's just me, I am sure many people will love them xx
