Miss Pinks Craft Spot

I'm back playing with Playful Pals from the Occasions Catalogue - this time I have focused on just stamping rather than using the thinlets too   This little duck is so cute, I thought the colourings would be just right to celebrate a new arrival of a little bundle of joy! The pond scene is stamped entirely using Playful Pals, being a photopolymer set makes it easy to line up and join the 2 stamps for the head and body I have used masking as well as sponging to create the pond, the reeds are made by just stamping the lower part of the tail stamp! I used the Tree Builder Punch for the clouds and sponged them with Soft Sky. The sentiment is comes from one of the Sale-A-Bration freebies called Perfect Pairings.  This set has 9 sentitments perfect for many occasions. I just adored how Rita interpreted this weeks challenge at Freshly Made Sketches, the clouds were a must for my card. I hope you have enjoyed viewing my project; I would love t...

Gift cards can be a great present for someone that can be difficult to buy for - I've come up with what I think is a fabulous way to dress the gift card and make a lovely personalised gift   Rudolf is made from the amazing Owl Punch , the little owl feet have been trimmed off and the nose is cut with the punch too. The antlers are made from the Tree Builder punch. I saw my daughter watching Mr Maker during the week, she just loves "googly eyes", so I opted for them rather than the Owl punch eyes in this instance. I used the Ornate Tag Topper Punch to create the Tag, then made a template to make the case to slide it into.  The heat embossed sentiment is from the Flurry of Wishes stamp set.    I decided to mount the Gift Card Case onto a card so that we can write a message, but you could just leave gift just using the Case. To finish off I gave the the white cardstock a touch of winter cheer  with the Softly Falling TIEF - I just l...

I have had the amazing honour of being ask to be a guest designer this week with the team from Merry Monday!  Here is my card: Below is Nina's theme for this weeks challenge: I don't have a moose stamp, so I thought I would give punch art a try, or a variation of punch art as I also used framelits: The moose head, antlers and eyes are made from framelits in the Snow Friends set, I also used an oval die to round the bottom edge of the antlers. The end of the candy cane was used for the white of the eyes and the holly framelit for the tuft of hair. I used the Tree builder punch for the nostrils and tongue, and the small circle from the Owl punch for the eye balls. Sequins attached to Cording trim make up the Christmas lights that my poor Moose is tangled in! The sentiment is from Peaceful Pines. Thank you for stopping by today, and for your wonderful encouraging comments, til next time,   For those that live in Austra...
