Love ATCs

Hi everyone, today I have some ATCs to share with you, I made them for the UK Stampers February swap.

For the background I used some Cosmic Shimmer Pixie Powder with a heart stencil. The stamps I used are AALL & Create stamps.

Thank you for dropping by, have a lovely Easter everyone.

Belated Mothers Day Card

Good morning all, today I'm sharing with you a card that I made for the Craft Barn design team, you can see my card here.

Have a lovely day. xxx Hazel.

Gothic Arch - Things With Wings

UK Stampers have started to do a monthly Gothic Arch challenge, the theme for the first challenge is Things With Wings.

I used a Marianne Design embossing folder for the background and coloured it with distress inks. I put a strip of Dylusions tape along the bottom. I used black card and a Sizzix die for the cat. The butterflies were stamped and punched out with a Martha Stewart stamp and die and I used a Finnabair word stamp.

Thank you for dropping by to take a look. xxx

SPA - Sewing/Dressform

Good morning everyone, I hope you're all having a good weekend.
Sabine has chosen Sewing/Dressform as this weeks theme for the Sunday Postcard Art challenge.

I covered my postcard with some patterned paper from my stash and stamped the images with Archival ink. The main image was stamped and embossed with black powder. I used Stampers Anonymous and Paperartsy stamps but I'm not sure who made the stamp that I used for the stitching round the edge.
My postcard was also made for this months UK Stampers postcard swap.

Below is a photo of some embroidery that I did last week, it's from the winter Craftpod craft box.

Thank you for dropping by to take a look, have a lovely Sunday. xxx Hazel.

Spring Tulips

The weather has been a bit better today, it was lovely and warm in the sun when I walked the dogs earlier today so perhaps spring will be here soon. I love all the spring bulbs that are flowering at the moment, especially tulips, so today I'm sharing a simple drawing of some tulips.

I'm entering my drawing in the Art Journal Journey Spring challenge.

I drew the tulips and coloured them with watercolour pencils. I lightly coloured the background and stamped some script and added some splatters. I stamped the word tulip but its's a bit wonky.

Thank you for dropping by, enjoy the rest of your day. xxx Hazel.

Dylusions Diary - Week 4

Good morning everybody. I have week four of my diary to share with you today.

The flower page was already printed so I just coloured it with felt tip pens leaving the white border round the flowers, I decided not to add anything else to the page. I decorated the diary page with Just Rite stamps and Hero Art stamps.

Thank you for looking, have a lovely day. xxx Hazel.

SPA - Springtime

Good morning, I hope you're all having a lovely weekend.

I'm happy to be hosting this weeks Sunday Postcard Art challenge - the theme I've chosen is Springtime, with the way the weather's been this week spring still seems a long way of.

I enlarged a Gecko Galz image and adhered it to my postcard, then I stamped the flowers with a Stampendous stamp and coloured them with pencils. I stamped some green leaves around the nest with a Paperartsy stamp. The word spring is a Jofy stamp.
