Challenged! - Ring a ring of Roses

I saw this digi stamp from A Day for Daisies and knew I had to have it. They remind me of my brother's children, although he has 2 girls and one boy. After colouring with Promarkers,I chose a mix of Basic Grey papers from their paper pads - Eva, Obscure, Pyrus and Nook and Pantry. I liked the combination of rich pattern and colour.

Challenged! - More Molly Blooms

I continue to try and get my money's worth out of my new Molly Bloom Christmas stamps. This week's challenge at Sarah Hurley Challenge Blog is paper piecing, which is my favourite technique. I used more than 2 images - Molly, the postbox and a LOTV sentiment - so can enter the challenge at The Crafty Pad. All the papers I used were from the Basic Grey Figgy range - that qualifies me for Basic Grey Challenges, Anything Goes.

Challenged! - Shaped Christmas Card

I used my two new Molly Bloom stamps and played around with the shape of the card. (I had to draw a little nose on Molly of course.) I’d like to enter this for the following challenges:

Magazine Addict – Papercraft Essentials Issue 74

This issue has some fabulous Polka Doodles Christmas stamps. There was also an article, by Su Pennick, on resist techniques. I tried ‘resist stamping using alcohol inks’  - ( you stamp on alcohol inks with Staz On inkpad and wipe it off) – but it didn’t work , maybe because the alcohol ink background I used had been hanging around for a while.  So I reverted to an old favourite, resist with clear embossing , and paperpieced onto her hat and boots. I had intended to paper-piece the coat too but the cutting around the hair was too complicated!
