Hi everyone! Sorry I haven't posted anything for a little while but life has been so hectic and I have been finding it very difficult to get inspired to make anything. However, it's Friday which means it's time for the Stamp Something challenge and this week the very talented Melissa has set it!
The challenge this week is a two parter - to create something in red, white and blue, and have it be ANYTHING BUT A CARD! This challenge is based on the fact that it's Independence Day in the States very soon so I have taken my inspiration from the Stars and Stripes, plus Lewis, my eldest Son, has been nagging me for ages to make him a book so this is what I came up with.....
I've used my Bind It All to make the actual book and covered it with Pink Petticoat papers printed onto lightweight card and stuck some Doodlebug ribbon across the join. The image is Magnolia (which was a RAK from someone) and I've coloured him with Prismas and Sansodor adding Glamour Dust to his wings and the star on his jumper and Glossy Accents to his boots to make them nice and shiney! The stars have been cut with my Cricut from Bazzill c.s. and used a sentiment from Autumn Leaves and rub-ons from Doodlebug to spell Lewis.The other DT Members have done some superb work so pop on over and take a look......there's also some fabulous Blog Candy on offer again this week.
Still trying hard to catch up with my blogging.....I'm getting there! and have finally managed to make a few cards which I will post very soon. Hope you all have a great weekend!
