Black and white!

Hi Folks, Hope you've had a great week :D 
I've been very busy  and have made an offering for Stampotique

This week at Stampotique Nellie van Leeuwin is our hostess and she is challenging us to "Black and White Only" here is what Nellie says about this challenge:

"I challenge you to use only black and white in your project this week"
 I altered a giant wooden peg,
 

I had so much fun with this and absolutely loved the constraint of just Black and White especially on this substrate. All stamps from Stampotique,
I measured the stripes and coloured them with FB Castell Pitt pens, a recent purchase, niiice for drawing :D The circle background is a multi circle stencil, I got from Joggles and I can see it's going to be very handy.
Thank you for stopping by to see what I've been up to :D Hugs Gay xx

Butterflies, Flowers and all things garden.........................

Hi Everyone,
           I have a card for Stampotique this week Jackie Payne is our hostess and she is taking us on a "Butterflies, Flowers and all things Garden" adventure
Here is what Jackie says about this challenge:
"Now that summer is almost here, it's time to spend some time in the garden and enjoy the nature and flowers. Let's see your best Butterfly, flowers and all things Garden projects"
 

 Yes, well, it's flowers and butterflies and one has landed on Dog's head , snigger. Dog also has a very interesting coat, more sniggers. You see my problem is I don't have many small butterfly stamps so I have resorted to a rub on and some DP! For the line of the ground I have masked Jo Capper Sandon's floral stamp, repeating it 3 times.
I hope you haven't been washed away with all this rain, funny old weather here in the UK! 
Thank you for stopping by :D Gay xx

Man up!

Hello there lovely peeps, Over at Stampotique this week
Carol Fox is our hostess and she is challenging us to a manly challenge. "Man Up" is her challenge theme and here is what Carol says about this one:
"Journal page, card or mixed media, all is ok as long as it has a male image on it"
I made a card

Taking a line for a walk again, I stamped Eric first and then drew the lines up to and around him, crossing them to give the impression of waves. My lines aren't very even but not bad with a gammy hand LOL. I wanted to say 'A birthday Wave' but couldn't find a stamp that would fit or bend to follow the lines.
Hoping the sun will make an appearance sometime soon, fed up with being chilly :)
Thanks for dropping by, the link for the stamp is his name :D Hugs Gay x
