As a current member of Slimming World this stamp set sure makes me chuckle!  I know lots of my friends in the group would see the funny side too – always trying to put a positive spin on things!  The stamp is quite a large one so creates the perfect focal image without the need for too much more.  I stamped onto water colour card and coloured the image with Zig Clean Colour markers.  A layer of vellum and some patterned paper add just a bit of interest to the background.

Avery Elle … That Bites and Ribbit Ribbit

Hey!  I have a couple of cards over on the Avery Elle Blog today showcasing a great couple of sets from the Summer Release.  The first one is probably one of my favourite sets – That Bites.  I love how Heather illustrated these deep sea fish – so funny with that sentiment too!

 

That Bites

The second card uses the Ribbit Ribbit set for a clean and simple card that I think is perfect for a younger recipient – such fun to colour.

Sharing an inky, splattery explosion for this week’s challenge!  Not really my usual go to technique but I think I could get to quite enjoy it!  I created a panel using (yes, you know it – Wonky Stitches from Avery Elle), and inked in up using Spiced Marmalade Distress ink.  I then got the Lindy’s Gang solutions Pineapple Paradise and High Maintenance Magenta and added tonnes of splatters.  When that was all dry I used the MISTI to stamp over it using the Butterflies set and Big Greetings (Avery Elle) multiple times for a good dark impression.  I then used the same colours as a paint for the butterfly!.
