Kazzazz train stamp

IMG_5859 (Medium)keeping with the male themed stamped cards, tonights cards use a stamp I purchased from Kazzazz.I used stampin up cardstock – cherry cobbler, crumbcake and not quite navy, and the little bit of patterned paper is Prima Craftsman. The card on the right makes use of the negative cardstock left over after I had die cut the labels on the left card. ( dies are from stampin up – sizzix decorative labels.) I just had to add a little bakers twine and prima trim to finish these ones! til tomorrow….

Tim Holtz Car stamp

This is the last of my new stamps, it’s a tim holtz stampers anonymous vintage car, and as with the previous stamps, gives a gloriously clear stamped image.I can’t remember what ink I stamped it with – most annoying because I would like to repeat it,if I stumble across it I will update this post!The background papers are Simple Stories Awesome. I can see a definite light at the end of the christmas card tunnel – 2 more very special xmas cards in boxes, then all the Christmas bits and pieces are going away, and I am ready to play with all my new stuff.I have been so patient!Til tomorrow….

male stamped cards

The stamp on these cards is by Stampers Anonymous Tim Holtz Collection and it’s called Clockwork.It stamps really well, and it’s got lots of lovely detail.To this I have added watch parts,tim holtz ideology sprockets, bakers twine, spellbinders sprightly sprockets, and a cuttlebug clockworks embossing folder.The card on the left is a little messier deliberately because I stamped splodges on it and distressed it ,just as a “lets see what else we can do”kind of a mission! Had a lovely afternoon today, with my sisters and a small group of friends, trying out an idea to set up a social card making group. We all had a great time, and we will repeat it again at the beginning of the year, and invite a few more ladies.Til tomorrow….
