Hi everyone, I can hardly believe it - the sun is shining again! We're quite busy but getting through things much quicker now! Yesterday was a day off though - we went to Lyme Park (amongst others things) for hubby's birthday and although chilly in the shade had a lovely walk.
As I mentioned in my previous post we went to the Stamping Together show at Port Sunlight on Saturday.
Kate Crane was there demoing her new stamps for Paper Artsy(you may remember she used to design for Carabelle Studio who stopped trading last Autumn)
Her new stamps are wonderful and of course I bought some!
I also bought some new paints - Paper Artsy Mattints - they're so lovely to use.The only mistake I made was not buying all of the colours! They do mix well though!I tried them put by painting lines in different colours over my page in both directions which is how I found out about the colours blending. Next, for some contrast I used a trusty old stencil, covered it in Black Oxide ink, spritzed and pressed it onto my page.
The stamps were all stamped onto art paper, coloured with the Mattints and cut out along with an Alison Bomber quote.
I added some pink spatter to the girl tag and black over the page.
Here are the stamps I bought
Here's Kate with her brand new PaperArtsy release - she had been allowed to show them pre-release.
