Chemistry!

I got a new supply of stamps from There She Goes yesterday and immediately played with them for their current challenge which is a colour challenge - grey and yellow plus a neutral - which fit perfectly with one of the sets which just happened to be the one I wanted to play with first :-D

Sorry its not a great image - its a scan not a photo and its not showing the "white space" around the grey.  But I really loved this little image and sentiment "I love you beyond measure" 


I wanted to play with more of the stamps, so this one doesn't quite fit the challenge as there is no yellow, but I just couldn't resist making another little card - these are super tiny new card blanks from papermania - just 3 x 3 inch and make gorgeous mini cards or gift tags.  I just added a little embossed background detail to this one as its narrower than the other.  Expect to see many variations on a theme with this set!


These also fit the theme of "for the boys" at St Luke's this month.

To finish - I've just found out that one of my cards made the top 3 - I'm behind on my blog reader so only just found out today that I can add a new badge to my blog for this card - I love this range of cat stamps :-D


 Catch you later alligator ;-)

    Thanks for the tip about the tag, might do that. All the glueing didn`t take long and it`s the sort of thing you can do in front of the telly.

  8. Hi Tara, these stamps are quite different, never seem any like these and it's nice to be able to do something a bit different to everyone else. They're such fun though, and the cat card is so funny, I love that one.

    I'm glad you like my sheer colouring, it wasn't so hard when I sat down to do it, but it did look awful for most of the time - that white pencil really made a lot of difference and smoothed out the rough copic colouring, so if you do try it don't be put off cos it won't look right till you've finished. Hope you have a go. CoB
