Hello lovelies… I’m just nipping in quickly to join in a couple of challenges before they disappear… I’ve already missed one I’d made something for, so rather than wait until I finish a couple of others, I thought I’d better get these posted. I also NEED to close some of the tabs I have open, draining my laptop resources
I made this for the Daring Cardmakers Apple Day challenge… it’s a long time since I’ve used this Chapel Road stamp. I used Oxides, and stamped the main image three times.. but wasn’t very happy that there is no real focus point, so I added the lettering – which is, in fact, a stamp from Time to Stamp, cut up. I love the fruits at this time of year, so it’s a good reason to celebrate them.
I’d also like to enter it into the Artistic Stamper’s Inktober challenge.
We’re now well and truly into Autumn and feeling the change in the weather in the North West, so it’s easy to think of Autumn, especially with yesterday’s sudden shedding of leaves – they were everywhere!
So, still focusing on Autumn. this one is for
Addicted to CAS challenge – Foliage
Addicted to Stamps and More’s CAS challenge.
Addicted to Stamps’ Autumn Colours challenge
Dare 2B Artzy’s Fall Challenge
Double Trouble’s Halloween or Fall Challenge
Penny Black and More Autumn Splendour (3rd entry)
and
Dragonfly Dreams’ Autumnal Colours Challenge.
For My Time to Craft – a cat! This is another Katzelcraft image.
I haven’t done any stamping the last couple of days… I’ve been trying to unjam my Big Shot…. I managed to run misaligned plates through it and they’ve jammed it I’ve taken it apart, following instructions on the web, but I still can’t get the plates out, so I’m rather miffed! Hopefully, I’ll learn from it, though I may get my son to ‘bash it’ a bit, to see if he can release them!
Thank you for looking
Back soon
Cath
