Well I have been saving my cards up as I had made them for Oysters Stamps Open Day and Oh My did we have a super Day..... It all started very early today for me 5.00 am as I have to get up to get all my Dogs & Cats their scoff and walks etc.... Then I hurried myself into the shower all to get out by 7.00 am as I have a hour and a half's journey to get there through London which can be so stressful driving through the traffic.... But lucky for me my Husband Steve drove and to avoid the traffic we took the M25 and we could see the rain lifting as we got closer and once we arrived there the sun shone and buy did we have a great day.....
Anyway I have spent many a hour this week sitting painting and cutting all ready for me to decoupage and I think if I must say so myself I think I have done not too bad a job with these....
For the Fuchsia's I used Heartfelt Creations Fuchsia Stamps and also the Poppy Stamps are Heartfelt too..... I know you have seen Charlie before but I love him so much I just needed to do him again and I used in the background the Stampers Anonymous Stamp called CityScapes.....
I have used a variety of mediums to paint with Gelato's which are rich and creamy, Distress Inks which I adore and then the Spectrum Noir Aquamarkers which I too love very much.....
Anyway here are my samples and I just hope you like them .....
My first Card uses the beautiful stunning Heartfelt Creations Stamp Fuchsia Bouquet and also the Designs by Ryn Stencil Gingko Leaf.....
For this one I used the Heartfelt Creations Poppy Stamp called "Poppy Stem" and also again the Designs By Ryn stencil called Anemone.....I just love this card..... I don't know what it is but I really do so will have to re do this again sometime for me to keep .....
Penny Black's "Charlie" stamp is just one of my all time favourites and again I have just had to do him.....
.....and finally I have used the Heartfelt Creations "Fuchsia Clusters" stamp..... so beautiful and using the lovely Crealies Octagon Die .....
Well there you are all my samples for this time but believe me I have so many more to do so keep watching and I'll be back soon
I off tomorrow for a Crafty Retreat at Clarity Stamps with my crafty mates Martine, Janet and Doreen and I'm really looking forward to it..... Wish me luck !!!
Lots of Love and Big Hugs to you all

ReplyDeleteThese cards were stunning to see "in the flesh" on Sunday. They were a real inspiration. I think the poppy one is my favourite as it really draws you in but they all are great and showcase your talent beautifully. I really hope you have a super time at the Clarity retreat. Wishing you a safe journey there and back xx
ReplyDeleteWow Marianne, these are ALL fabulous! You are so talented at decoupage, you must have the patience of a saint and the eyes of a hawk to cut out those flowers so perfectly! Glad you had a lovely day, I bet you attracted lots of attention with those stunning cards! Big hugs xxxxxx
