MASKING THIS WEEK AT LESS IS MORE ..........

Hello lovely bloggers everywhere - hope your week is going well?
*********  

Just popping by to share my make for this week's challenge at LESS IS MORE. Our lovely LIMette Leaders, Chrissie and Mandi, would like us to do some Masking, so I decided to use a technique which involves three stamps.
***

 I am sure lots of you will know how to do masking with three stamps, but for those of you who would like the details, I will pop them below.
Update - March 30th - My card has been ShowCASed - whoo-hoo! 
Thank-you Chrissie and Mandi !

********

 1. Stamp the Torn Aperture onto a piece of cardstock.

2.Stamp again onto a piece of paper (larger than the cardstock).

3. Cut out the aperture centre only. (mask #1).

4. Place mask over the image you stamped onto the cardstock.

5. Stamp a suitable image over the mask (I used Hero Arts Gracious Lady). 

6. Remove mask. 

7. Stamp aperture once more onto paper, then cut around the image. Do not cut out the centre.(mask #2).

8. Place  mask #2 over the entire image which you stamped onto cardstock.

9. Stamp a background image (I used Inkadinkado Lace 90355).  Remove mask. 

*********

I would love to know if anyone else has used this Artifacts "Torn Aperture" stamp in the past?

Here it is (looks a bit strange doesn't it)!  I bought mine several years ago, but I've checked and it is still available from The Stamp Bug online shop.

*********

On my card I also used Versafine ink pads -  Crimson Red and Smokey Gray.  Copics here and there to give some shading.

Red Bazzil cardstock.

******

The Anna Griffin sentiment stamp was also masked - the full wording is Forever and Always, so some cellotape over the unwanted bits before inking does the trick! (Remove cellotape before stamping - but I'm sure you know that)!!!

**********

Apologies for the looooooong Post!
Enjoy the rest of your week ~ love to all  ~

Hi Lovely bloggers - I hope the weekend has been a good one wherever you may be? 

Are you all joining in this week's LESS IS MORE ONE LAYER, with Script challenge?  Go on - you know you want to!

Here is my offering - I know it looks as if  I am still in last week's  LIM Neutrals mode, but it was quite unintentional, and the base card is actually the most gorgeous shade of pastel greyish green - "River Rock" from Stampin' Up. (Twas my last piece too - sob)! 

Could I get it to look green on my photo? NO!  May try again in the morning.

**********
UPDATE! - Took another pic. this morning with natural daylight in the room -  much better result! (Would love to learn more about photography) !!

Recipe:-

SU River Rock cardstock  

Crackle background stamp from IndigoBlu, "second-stamped" with Versafine Vintage Sepia.

FLOWERS AND NEUTRALS!

Hope you are all well my lovelies. I have some flowers for you today - 
some neutral, some vibrant!

Firstly the neutrals, which I have popped on my card for this week's
LESS IS MORE CHALLENGE.

 The Lovely Mandi and Chrissie have asked us to use NEUTRALS

on our projects - anything from off-white to black, and shades of beige, brown, and grey in-between.
*******

Recipe:-
Punched layers and base card  - SU Very Vanilla, Crumb Cake and Early Espresso.
Paper snippets and an EK Success Flower Punch ~
 (the gingham is a Wendy Vecchi stamp inked with Staz-on Timber Brown).

Tiny bow - SU Linen thread.
Sentiment -  Penny Black.
Very old metal press-studs for flower centres.
**********
My card is also entered into Di's Snippets.
*********
OK - onto the vibrant flowers -  I wonder if anyone can tell me the name of the blossom tree in these photos I took on holiday in Tenerife? The large flowers are the most lush, vibrant orange, the petals tipped with yellowy-white, and at the side of each flower is this strange but wonderful "banana-like" growth. 
CLICK THE PICS. TO ENJOY THE COLOURS. 

Any ideas peeps??!!

BIRDS Sing Like There's Nobody Listening ..............

Hi lovely peeps - hope you are having a happy week. I am just popping by with a card for this week's challenge  at LESS IS MORE. 

The wonderful Mandi and Chrissie have set all those Limettes out there, the challenge of using a BIRD, or BIRDS on our projects. It is also ONE LAYER week - yikes!!

*****

Recipe:-

The wording was typed on my 'puter and printed directly onto the card.

According to my Google search, the complete quote was originally

created by Mark Twain, or maybe someone by the name of William W. Purkey.

I just used the last two lines, which I thought were quite apt for this card.

****************

I then inked my brayer with Kaleidacolor Desert Heat, brayering the excess ink onto spare paper before brayering the coloured panel onto my card. This gave me the soft look I was aiming for. ( If you have never used this particular ink pad, it is quite a vibrant mix of reds, pinks and oranges). 

***

I used two Crafty Individuals stamps, inked with Ranger Jet Black Archival.

The birdcage was stamped first, and masked before stamping the birdsong musical score.

I added a little of the pink ink onto the Rose petals, using a Ranger Cut'nDry pen nib.

Cardstock - SU Whisper White.
******
I would also like to enter my card into the following challenges:-
The Cheerful Stamp Pad - Birds of a Feather.
Card and Scrap - Clean and Simple.

PREDOMINANTLY PURPLE !!

Hi lovely peeps - this is a very quick post tonight, as we are dashing out to babysit, so musn't be late!

This is a card for the PREDOMINANTLY PURPLE CHALLENGE at Less Is More.. 

I have inked one side of an acetate strip with Alcohol Inks - Wild Plum, Raisin, Denim and a touch of Stream and Butterscotch, with a sprinkling of gold leaf flakes here and there.
Acetate attached to the white card with black brads.
A black line drawn onto the card along both long edges, using a Pilot Hi-Tecpoint Extra-fine pen -  a very handy little crafting tool.  

The Chocolate Baroque stamp on the front is from the Floral Bouquet set, and inked with Black Staz-on.

Sentiment from Hero Arts (must buy some new sentiment stamps - I keep 

using the same old stash - sorry)!

*************

Evening indoor lighting isn't the best for photographing acetate - may try again in the morning!

Hope it doesn't look TOO bad!
Friday Update - have changed the photo - it's a bright sunny morning so managed to take a picture I'm happier with!

Inkadinkado stamp, which I have used on my blog a couple of times before - sorry, but I love it!

A soft touch of Victorian Velvet DI to colour the dress.

"Forever" from the Anna Griffin stamp"Forever and Always". ("and Always" was masked with sellotape before inking, then removed before stamping).

WISHING YOU A STEAMPUNK NEW YEAR!

Hi peeps, hope your weekend has been brilliant, and are we all ready for Christmas?!!
(Did I hear someone say "NO")?!!
*********

 A couple of weeks ago, I was lucky enough to win the Plain and Simple challenge at QUIRKY CRAFTS, (thanks DT ladies), and as well as three fab. digis, my prize  included a Guest DT spot in this week's Challenge. 
Hope you will join in the fun - just pop over to Quirky for all the challenge details. The theme is  Quirky Christmas or Steampunk New Year, and this week's generous sponsor is
 Stitchy Bear Digital Stamps .  

*************
The fabulous "Steampunk Fairy" and "Steampunk Corner" which I used on my card are from Stitchy Bear Digital Stamps, and although Steampunk is something new for me, I thoroughly enjoyed working with these images, and the Fairy was a joy to colour. 
*******

Recipe:-

 I used Copics to colour the Fairy image, cut her out with the Stampin' Up "Top Note" die,  inked edges with Vintage Photo DI. 

***

Base Cardstock - SU Baja Breeze, layered with Co-ordinations Cappucino.

***

Tim Holtz Idealogy Findings on the Steampunk Corner.

***

For the larger cog, I printed an enlarged Corner image, punched out the main cog, added an eyelet and a circle border from the Cuttlebug "Stamps" set of dies. It always reminds me of a cog but looks great round a circular sentiment too.

****

The tiny calendar page is a snippet from a sheet of TH paper.

***

Sentiment from Layers of Color Art Stamps, inked with Jet Black Archival.

Sequin waste inked with Vintage Photo DI.
I ran a black extra-fine Pilot Pen around the die cut after attaching it to the card.

Hi lovely Bloggers - hope you are all having a happy week?

*****

LET IT SNOW is the theme chosen by Chrissie and Mandi this week at 

LESS IS MORE,  and guess what -  we woke up to a thin coating of the white fluffy stuff in this part of West Yorkshire this morning, and very pretty it looked too. 

*********

This gorgeous Hero Arts Penguin is another of my all-time favourites!  

I masked the central  image, and then there were three!

Images stamped with Jet Black Archival Ink.

Lightly coloured the hats and scarves with Copics. 

 SU Dazzling Diamonds glitter on the "snowy" ground and hat bobbles.

GREEN TREE-MENDOUS !

Hello lovely bloggers - hope you're keeping warm, dry and safe in this wet and windy UK weather.

*******

A short post today, with my offering for the GREEN challenge at LESS IS MORE.

The image is Indigo Blu "Tree-mendous", inked with Versafine Spanish Moss, Color Box Moss Green and  Color Box Olive. I applied the inks to give a slightly darker shade towards the tree trunk.

The layers of cardstock are left-overs  of River Rock (love this colour) from SU, and a dark green from Bazill (no idea what it's called)!

The heart is punched from a snippet of red glitter card which I LOVE.

Ribbon from stash

Sentiment from a fabulous set by Layers of Colour Art Stamps.

Hope you are all ready for Christmas now, with cards made, cakes baked and all that jazz - 

have a great weekend - love to all ~

CHRISTMAS MEDALLION ORNAMENT.................

Hello lovely bloggers -it's jolly cold in this part of the world today - we had lots of white fluffy stuff this morning so the hilltops in the distance look fabulous in the winter sunshine. Hope you are all warm and cosy wherever you are!

********

At THE STAMP MAN ,the challenge this fortnight is to Create An Ornament - it doesn't necessarily have to be Christmassy, but I just happened to have this Medallion Stamp, (the design is called "Raintree") which makes a rather nice festive ornament and looks a bit like a large snowflake (kind of)!
******  
For anyone not familiar with Medallion stamps - the idea is that you stamp the image several times, cut out different sections from each stamped image, add glitter or colour, then layer up with 3-d foam pads, starting with the largest sections at the base.

I have also repeated the snowflake back-to-back so the ornament looks the same on both sides.

If you are into box making, the medallions make a beautiful box topper too.


Not a very good photograph, but here it is!

A very warm welcome to my new followers - Cazzy, Marja and Claire.
Have a happy week everyone ~ love to all ~

Before I post my card for this week's LESS IS MORE CHALLENGE, for anyone visiting Harrogate, (in Yorkshire) a new branch of Samuel Taylors opened 8 weeks ago on Commercial Street. I found it quite by accident on Saturday, as it's a street I don't often go down - but of course I will now!  Maybe I'm the only person in the area who didn't know about it, but I thought someone out there might welcome the news!!
