Sitting on a secret for a long time.......

 and totally bursting to tell too :D
I am now a member of the Stampotique Design Team, Whoopeee!!




Can't say how pleased I am , totally stoked actually! On two occasions I have guest designed for Stampotique but have not been able to do more. Now I can devote more time and it's fantastic to be working with the wonderful talented team and these little Stampotique beauties, struggling to grasp that I'm actually I'm on the team Yippeee!! :D
Here are a few of my Stampotique makes from recent posts
As you can see I am a little obsessed with Newton, he's a lovely boy LOL

 As is Topher :D

A very flowery number from April, such adaptable stamps these Stampotique stamps, look where this came from

A very sweet Agatha and a  pretty and adaptable flower stamp!

and this one was me taking my pencil for a walk, more fun LOL
Well I have certainly had fun and I hope there will be much more in the coming months, we have some fab new stamps coming soon, I can't wait to share them with you :D

There is a change to the challenge, we will be having one challenge but fortnightly so check out the Stampotique Designers Blog for all the info! Loads more interesting days to come, I hope you will join me in my new adventure, hugs Gay xx

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,

Olive the Ostrich

Froggie

Gog Lin

Stencil Background

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

Stamps I used;

Dog

Bold Flower

Floral Flutter
