Stamps Ahead

Images:(c)1990-2009 Stampin'Up!(r) Artwork: Margaret L Crawford Last night, Carol set the challenges, her 3rd challenge (I am yet to do challenges 1 & 2) was to use a technique called 'direct to rubber" where you use your SU markers like colouring pencils onto your stamp. I have used another new set from the summer mini Razzle Dazzle. For the background I used the ever popular Weathered Background stamp. Enjoy.

Clare's second challenge - black, white and orange. Certainly well out of my comfort zone using orange. Here is my card. Images:(c)1990-2009 Stampin'Up!(r) Artwork:Margaret L Crawford

Images:(c) 1990-2009 Stampin'Up! (r) Artwork: Margaret L Crawford I have been busy creating various cards over the past few days. This one drew inspiration from SU catalogue p53. I have added more texture using Weathered background stamp and twine. Also, on Friday I went to NSW Government House via David Jones. David Jones had their spring flower show, their windows and ground floor were decorated in Australian Native Flowers. The waratahs in bloom were just magnificent. And at Government House, the tulips were on show. Enjoy these photos - spring has come.
