must stop buying.....stuff

So, the other week I went to a 50% off sale at the Stamp Bug....so many goodies at least 50% off, some stamps were only 50p!!!!......I thought I was quite restrained.

They stock amazing lady art moulds, these are a couple that I bought made up with friendly plastic, the one on the left is a stylized kiwi leaf, as I have family in New Zealand I thought this would be perfect on their cards and scrap pages, and the key hole for some steam punk makes.

I also met Lucy from 'true colours' blog (see blog list to the right) who has some amazing items on her blog, I recommend you stop by some time.

I have been making lots of cards, and have also made a rangers memory glass necklace and grungepaper wrist band..but I need to download the photos of them.....so here are a few cards I have been making.

These are 2 great stamps from the stamp bug which I hand coloured and inked with some distressed inks

The bottle and glass are black peel-offs I stuck on coloured paper scraps and hand coloured

and this card is distressed with inks again (loving the distressed inks).

I was also lucky enough to visit my brother in London for the Tate moderns 10th anniversary, a great show and the shop is SO good. I bought a book of 1000 altered and reclyed projects....so much inspiration, thank goodness we have a bank holiday coming up (a whole day of crafting with any luck!).

Any way, happy crafting
