Sometimes I forget how relaxing it can be to just draw something, so today I did just that!

Funky Flowers

I just love these stamp designs from Jo Firth-Young, just a little colouring with Pro Markers was all that was needed.

What's on your Workdesk Wednesday? 212

Here we are again back to Wednesday and a chance to travel around the globe looking all he lovely desks and stunning creations. If you would like to join in pop over to Stamping Ground by clicking here and start in the journey.

There has not been much activity on my desk this week as other jobs have taken over. I have been working on a magazine article which will be published later in the year, so all a bit secret squirrel for now.

Lots more jobs are lining up, among them are another wedding album and a bridal bouquet!

Here is my desk this week, I have just finished a new baby card. Mostly what you can see is new purchases, some stamps, a set of dies and some buttons. My bargain of the week are some sets of pretty pins from a florist suppliers,  whole boxes for 75p!

Some of you may have spotted my new melt pot a lovely birthday gift, I am so desperate for the time to play with it. Not this weekend though as I am off to London to a Michael Buble concert and a couple of days shopping with my lovely Daughter.

Have a good week everyone

Vintage Bird Card

Another Vintage card for a workshop this time with a printed bird image as the main focal point.. I have used some printed paper layers which have been distressed with ink. Some die cuts, rolled roses and lace finish the design.

Vintage Lady Card

I loved making this card for a vintage workshop. This design could be created with many different images and a variety of stamps. The background is aged with Distress Inks and the stamping worked in overlapping layers, some of the flowers have been coloured with pencils. There are many vintage images available on the internet, here the lady had been printed greyscale and applied on top, with some further stamping layers.
