Of Squirrels and Flowers

Welcome everyone and thanks for dropping by.
Just a quick post from me with my next lot of samples for the Sheena Douglas shows today (Thursday) on Create and Craft.
New Embossing folders and a re-visit of the stamps and dies that came out earlier in the year.
The same folder, but used in a very different way.


Yet another sample with the same embossing folder, but this time in combination with one of the brand new stamps, one of Sheena's stencils and a bit of hand painting in the background.
The shows take place at the following times:
8 am, 11 am, 2 pm, 4 pm and 7 pm

That's it for now, thanks for visiting like always and enjoy the weekend when it comes!

Just got a whole lot of new stamps from a brilliant place called the Stamp Smith. This is the image that I first saw on Docraft and really liked. I asked the friend who has used it in an ATC, where she got it. Well she borrowed it from a friend who got it from ebay as a one off. But.... it had a title. I googled the title, and hey presto found the site. They have great stamps and offer a really friendly fast service. I highly recommend them!
