SPA - The Moon

Good morning everyone, today I’m sharing with you the postcard that I’ve made for this weeks Sunday Postcard Art challenge, the theme is The Moon.

I used gelli prints for the background and moon. I put some mushroom washi tape across the bottom of the card and stamped the mushroom silhouettes (stamp unknown) with black archival ink. The moon was stamped with an Aall & Create stamp. The mushrooms were printed from a drawing that I did, I cut them out and adhered them to the card, the fairy ( Caroline Stamps) was stamped onto card and cut out, the cat is a piece of washi tape. I wrote the words and doodled round the edges.

Thank you for visiting, you’re all very welcome. xxx

Every Inchie Monday - Fantasy

What a traumatic day today has been. My poor dog Josh was attacked by another dog this morning and has been at the vets all day. He has lots of holes in his chest and side. I didn't go on the walk today so my husband had to sort it. The owner walks three bull terriers and one of them went for Josh, the other two started to get excited so Ian had to keep hold of them by their collars while the owner got her dog of Josh. My other dog Murphy did a runner so Ian had to look for him but couldn't find him, he was eventually found by a council worker running round the town, this all happened at 6-30 this morning when there wasn't many people about. The vet decided not to stitch his wounds as sometimes dog bites can get infected behind the stitch so he gave them a good clean. He said that two of the holes were connected and when he put the disinfectant in one it came out of the other. The woman hopefully will pay the vets bill - she said she would. Poor Ian has a very badly bruised finger because one of the dogs twisted while he had hold of it's collar.

I was going to post some ATCs that I made for the UK Stampers ATC swap - I mailed them earlier today, but realised later when I couldn't find the photos that I hadn't taken any. I blame the heat - it has nothing to do with age.

So here are two inchies that I made for the Every Inchie Monday challenge, the theme is Fantasy. I've always loved fairies for as long as I can remember so my inchie had to have fairies on it.

I used Caroline's stamps on a scrap of coloured card.

For this inchie I used part of a Rubber Stampede stamp.

Fairy Domino Book and Pendant.

These are my latest DT pieces for Gecko Galz. I used images from the lovely Pixie Dust Domino image sheet.

For the pendant I adhered the image to a piece of stampboard, punched a hole and triple embossed it with clear UTEE, I added glitter on the second coat of UTEE. I coloured the sides and back with a gold Krylon pen and then adhered the flower and leaves.

This is the front of my domino book.

For the front and back of my domino book I painted two dominoes with lake Eco Green acrylic paint and then adhered the images and triple embossed them with clear embossing powder.

For the inside I cut some card to size and coloured it with a selection of Distress inks then I stamped some images. I scored the card and concertina folded it. I distressed the edges of the images and adhered them to the card then I attached the front and back dominoes and some ribbon to keep the book closed.

This is the back of my domino book.

The stamps I've used are,
Carolines for the tiny fairies and fairy silhouette.
Stampotique for the mushroom.
Tattered Angels and Inkadinkado for the rest.
