Claritystamp challenge 7 Vintage

This is my card for this month's 

 Claritystamp Challenge 7 Vintage

I stamped Sketchy lady on a spellbinders die cut shape in Archival ink, then coloured her with Promarkers. It looked too flat, so I stamped & coloured again and used pop dots this time to give some dimension. Using the pop dots made it easy to add the surrounding colour with an applicator and Distress inks. Should have done that first! I added the same colour Distress inks to a piece of scrapbook paper, a doily and some vintage lace and added a few flowers, faux pearls, die cut swirls and teeny tiny buttons to embellish.

 I received this birdhouse shaped key holder in the Monster Monday birthday box I bought from Paperartsy on Monday. The box arrived Thursday and I couldn't wait to start playing. Really enjoyed making this piece of wall art.

Seaside scene for Claritystamp challenge

My very first Beach scene:)  Colours are a bit bright I was too heavy handed with the shading. But maybe I'll improve with practise:)


I'd like to enter this for "Oh I do like to be beside the seaside".

Claritystamp challenge 3

I made this card for my husband:)  It's our 29th wedding anniversary this month....don't know how he's put up with me all these years! 

The splodgy background was a happy accident due to a blocked mini mister!

It's all in the sentiment

Clarity Stamp Challenge 2 - In the Garden

I'd like to enter "In Bloom" for the challenge over on 

Clarity Stamp Challenge 2

In Bloom was created using a Gelli plate background. The lupin stamp is from Clarity new design club.  Lupins in the background stamped with Versafine Onyx black + coloured with Promarkers. The Lupins on 3D foam were stamped onto a Twinkling H2o's background, love the way they shimmer:)

Craft room is now totally trashed, looks like it's been vandalised so I think I'll tidy up a little bit:) 

Lily stamped and paper-pieced.

I'm having fun playing with stamps and inks once again:) I've kept this card simple by stamping the image several times on various card and scrapbook paper and layering the pieces.

I'd like to enter her for Anything goes challenge over at
