Deco Swap

I used to like making tiny things, then I discovered scrapbooking and now feel at more home making 12 x 12 scrapbook pages.  Trouble is now tiny things are difficult! 

The pages below were made for a deco swap on the theme of summertime and are both just 4 x 4 inches in size.  The top one is coloured with copic and pro markers and has 4 layers of decoupage.  The decoupage just shows as a thicker black line on the scans below.  The black dot in the sky is just on the scan - I hope!

The beach huts were watercoloured using aqua markers.  On both pages the deck chairs are paper pieced and raised on 3D foam.

All the stamps are from Hobby Art.  With the exception of the sun they are all from the same rubber stamp sheet.

I hope you are having a lovely Easter.  Anne x

Christmas Cards

Here are a couple of quick Christmas cards. Well they would be quick if I didn't faff about so much ;-) hahaha!

The first uses Blonde Moments trees and word stamps, a lovely pearlescent embossed green card and my new Waltzing Mouse frame. The frame works with nestabilities, but here I just cut it out, mounted it onto pearlescent paper and cut that out a touch bigger.

The Tilda card is my attempt to add a bit more to a card - usually I will colour in and stick the image to a smaller square card with no embelishments. It's not easy to see on here but I stamped the red card with little stars.


Now I must stop playing Cafe World on FaceBook and go and do some real cooking...

Flowers

This Leanne Ellis image is a bit cutsie for me, but it goes well with the Stampin Up paper. Not sure what happened with the flower, it doesn't look quite so odd in real life.

I'm looking forward to going to the theatre tonight - the tart and the vicars wife! I'm looking forward to a good laugh.
