The theme at Less Is More this week is Button or Ribbon so I raided my button box and came up with this card.
I stamped the button corner onto a pale green card blank and stamped the stitches across the bottom. Then I embossed some white card in my Epic6 using a Creative Expressions button stencil and then I matted a strip of it onto black card and attached it to the card blank. I stamped the sentiment and watch onto white card, matted the sentiment onto black card and then attached them to the card blank. Then I added lots of buttons.
The stamps I used are
Creative Expressions, corner buttons.
Andy Skinner, stitches, sentiment and watch.

First Craft Room Challenge Anything Goes.
Well, the big day has finally arrived, it's the launch of the fortnightly Craft Room Challenge and the first challenge is Anything Goes. A random draw will take place at the end of each challenge and the winner will receive £10 to spend with our sponser Craft Room. I hope you will join in the fun with me and the rest of the Design Team.
My first piece for the Design Team is a tag. I coloured the tag with blue and orange acrylic paint and stamped the dots with coffee Archival ink. I added a piece of embossed card that had been embossed with a Cuttlebug embossing folder done in my Epic 6. The next thing to go on was some corrugated card that I had painted with orange acrylic paint. The main image and sentiment tag were stamped with black Archival ink and coloured with Distress ink. You can't tell from the photo that I'd covered the main image with stickles. The 'say cheese' at the bottom of the tag is a narrow strip of blue card put through a Dymo machine and I put a bit of rusty hinge Distress ink over the top with my finger. I embellished the tag with a camera charm, some gems and ribbon.
Stamps used.
Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous, the main image and dotty background.
PaperArtsy, the sentiment tag.

Chunky Alphabet Book Y and Z
Here are the last pages for KCUKs Chunky Alphabet swap.
Y is for Yellow Brick Road.
I used a Creative Expressions mask on some white card and stencilled it with some Distress ink and then stamped the crackled effect with a Tattered Angels stamp. I stamped the main images [Artistic Outpost] onto some white card and coloured them with Promarkers. The red shoes have some stickles on them.
Z is for Zebra.
For this page I started by putting some white card and a Dreamweaver stencil through my Epic 6 die cutting machine to get a Zebra skin effect. Before taking the stencil of the card I went over it with some black soot Distress ink. The main image is stamped with a Stampendous stamp onto white card, I used Distress ink to colour it. I don't know who makes the Zebra stamp but I stamped it onto shrink plastic with Stazon and attached them to the page after shrinking them.
