a little bit of this……and that!

Published by Makeesha at 12:04 pm under Cards

Hey everyone,

I hope you have had a great weekend and start to the new week! It surely has just flown by, and I know it will be the weekend before we know it! There is so many activities going on at the moment, with it being the end of the school year for the kids. Which is a good reminder that I better get onto those Teacher gifts!

On Saturday afternoon I had the opportunity to just sit down and stamp! Oh it was such a fabulous feeling, as I haven’t had that opportunity for some weeks. I just sat down and made whatever I felt like and I had a blast. Of course the next step of photographing them, editing, adding watermarks, and typing up a post has taken 3 days to do! It is amazing how you have the intention each day, but time is like water running through your hands, and you just don’t quite get there!

So anyway, there is a little bit of this and that, first I made a Christmas card…….Not my favourite type of card (as you know) but still it was nice to get out the glitter and ribbon and make this one….

For this creation I have used the Ski slope designer paper from Stampin’Up, and the Season of Joy, and Occasional greetings stamp set, with ribbon and glitter, and some rhinestone brads.

Then coloured up a new Stampingbella stamp that I got in the post the other week, and have been dying to colour in! I have used fun bright colours for this one too!

I have used my Copic markers to colour in the V-Dub, and then the greeting stamp is from Paper trey ink. The ribbon is white taffeta ribbon that I coloured with my Copic markers as well, and I have used the gel circle stickers from the Build a brad kit to go over the headlights to make them look a little real :)

Then last of all I actually stamped a card using Taylored Expressions Sketch Challenge for this week, and also using their stamps as well! I just got these in the post too the other week, and I have to tell you they are of really good quality, and lovely to stamp with!

I have used one of the greetings in the stamp set to stamp over the Whisper white cardstock and great a background. The stamped image I have coloured in with my Copic markers, and then cut out with my nestabilities die cutters. The ribbon, cardstock and DSP are all from Stampin’Up.

So there you have my this and that stamped creations. I am so hoping to get back to my desk this week for some more stamping time!

Have a great night everyone!

Love Keesh

    You don’t like making Christmas cards?!? *thud* Is that even possible?! haha! I’m quite the opposite, as I’m sure you’ve already guessed since I’ve been posting Christmas cards since the beginning of September. ;)

    If we’re gonna swap between DT members, you’re going to have to make at least a few more… *wink*

    I think you did a great job on your card, BTW! Well, on all of them!

    Oh they are all gorgeous Keesh but I love the Kombi one the best - my family had a Kombi for 30 years. I had it as my wedding car which was lots of fun and we gave it a 30th birthday party - Kombi shaped cake and all - it was hilarious! May have to get that one! TFS

    Beautiful cards Keesh, I love them. I just got a big box of stamps from Stampingbella last week too…I adore their ‘ketto’ and the ‘lulu’ collections also. They are just so awesome to colour in with copics, it’s so much fun.
