Stylish Sketches - Stampin'up

 Hello

Hope you are enjoying your crafting time.

My box of paper pieces was getting rather full so I went through and started digging out card front sized pieces. Paper layers and strips were cut and pieces of card for matting.

Next choose the stamps. Stylish Sketches for this set of cards as the background colours suit masculine designs.

The fox was stamped then die cut using Everyday details dies. Image coloured with watercolour pencils. A knotted piece of ribbon was added along with gems and pebbles.

The large image from Fabulous Flora was stamped on the background paper then the layers added. The small image was stamped, coloured with pencils and die cut with a deckled circle, then layered on with a bow and added gems.


The ducks were stamped, die cut with a layered square then coloured with pencils.
The matted layers were fixed to the card with the final layer offset. The stamped image was then added on top. Butterflies, gems and pebbles were added.

I Hope you find some inspiration on how to use your bits and pieces.

Till next time
be happy
