About Me

My photo
I'm a retired primary school teacher, who started paper crafting in 2008, when I had a fancy to make my own Christmas cards. Since then, I have tried all sorts of techniques and styles - and I kind of like them all. I have been lucky enough to be on blog teams and large design teams and to do a bit of freelance demonstrating - and I love the challenge of working with different products. My crafting style is very varied - from junk journaling and art journaling, bookbinding and journal making, to quilting and patchwork - and of course I still make cards. This variety keeps me interested - and my crafty stash growing!! I'm always seeking inspiration for new projects.

At One With Nature

 Today's make is an inky offering, with a little bit of die cutting. I have used AALL and Create's "At One With Nature" stamp set, with Distress Oxides in Cracked Pistachio and Fired Brick.


The background was created using the Oxide pads, blended onto white stamping card. I heat set it before spraying over the top with the Oxide sprays. One that was dry, I stencilled over it - again with the same colours. I made the stencil by cutting a piece of white stamping card with Precious Marieke's Leaf Frame die. Then I stamped over this with the daisy stamp from the AALL and Create set.

The tag, daisy and sentiment were stamped using Spectrum Noir Finesse Waterproof Ink in Flagstone. I inked over the tag and sentiment, but painted the daisy. These were stuck onto the background - and I also used pieces of the card stencil.

Happy crafting.
