Best Wishes Stencilled Block Print Card

I decided to snip into one of the Block Print Frameless stencils to create a frame for a sentiment on this card.

Monochrome Block Print Frames

These Block Print Frame dies look just as good in monochrome as they do in rainbow colours.

Warhol Style Bijou Block Prints

I kept things simple and in bold colours to create this Warhol style block print card.

Away With The Fairies: A Tag

The latest prompt over on Tag Tuesday is 'Faerie Tags' this is a tag which fits. 

Rainbow Coloured Frames

I absolutely adore these new Block Print Nested Frames from Clarity Crafts and had a play in rainbow colours.

A Heart with Best Wishes

I combined a new stencil, small heart shaped embedder and some stamps from Clarity Crafts to create this heartfelt card.

WOYWW 716: Nothing To Declare

 A quick preprepared desk share today as I got this ready on Monday morning before the second cataract operation.  Please visit more interesting desks than mine at Stamping Ground.

Nothing on the desk as I won't be crafting for a few days and have already lowered my chair to near eye level to reduce bending forward once I start crafting again.

I also got a couple of days ahead with my #dailydrawing2023 as well. 

Here is the card I made with the stamps on my desk last week.
Will let you know next week how things went.  Not sure if I will be doing much commenting but will try and visit.  Stay safe and Happy WOYWW.

One Layer Diver Card

I decided that it was time to use a stamp set from Clarity Crafts that I have had for a while and never used so went ahead and made this card using two of the four stamps.

Two Little Birdies

 I finally got round to using the Clarity Crafts New Design Club die from September 2020 and decided to follow a suggestion on the accompanying project sheet, combining it with the first ever die from the club.

Love is All You Need

 I had a play with the latest Clarity New Design Club stamps and created this romantic card.

Deepest Sympathy

This is a sympathy card which I made for a friend.

Still Going Strong; Daily Drawing Round Up

I am still going strong with my #dailydrawing2023 challenge.  The Seawhite journals I am using have enough pages for half a year each time.  Here are my drawings for the first half of February.

The prompts I am using.

I found an image which sums this up perfectly.

From my own imagination.

Copied from an image online but I didn't follow the tutorial (see HERE).

All my own ideas.

My Faber-Castell Polychromos.

A quickie!

And another one.

Another quick and easy drawing.

My crafting home.

Another quickie.

A quick sketch from life.

Seemed an obvious choice as I am from the UK.

WOYWW 715: Countdown

 Happy WOYWW and welcome to the weekly sharing of desks with Julia at Stamping Ground.

My desk shows some stamps that I am planning to use to make a card.  I have decided to use any stamps that have not yet had an outing and the swimmers fit the bill.  Pop back next week to see the final result.

My #dailydrawing2023 journal is still going strong.  Hoping that I won't need to take a break after my op next week but will catch up one way or another.  Stay safe everyone.

Valentine Love and Best Wishes

 I decided to use the Clarity January 2023 New Design Stencil club offering on a Valentine's card for my husband.

Scene Within A Scene

 The prompt this fortnight over on Tag Tuesday is Love/Hearts and I had fun creating this as a response.

WOYWW 714: Next Op Booked

 Welcome to the weekly desk share as part of WOYWW - please visit Julia's Stamping Ground for further explanation.

I was working on a tag yesterday with a love/heart theme so snatched a quick photo.

My second cataract operation is booked for the Monday of half term (20th February) so as to avoid time off work.  The optician was really happy with the results of the first one when I went on Saturday so here's hoping the second one is equally successful.  I should be back to driving in time to take my car in for its MOT lol.

The latest drawings are still happening.  We should have had a parents' evening tonight and tomorrow but they have been cancelled so not sure what the meeting will be if there is one after school this evening.  Looking forward to visiting desks later.  Stay safe and Happy WOYWW.
