I've done it again!




Ok, by now I think many of you have guessed I buy Craft Stamper every month and gain inspiration from it. I've been away for a week and was reading the magazine whilst away. How frustrated was I not to have my stash with me, so today I've done the washing, been to town and walked the dogs twice, so after all of that I just HAD to have half an hour to play. I thought this article looked so crisp I was itching to try it out. The idea is to mask off a shape using 'post it notes' and use distress inks to add colour, I've used yellow, spiced marmalade and red hot pepper on these.
My neighbour was taken into hospital at Tooting yesterday, and an op today so I don't think I will be able to get up there to visit unless I go with her hubby one day. Anyway I am just off to pop it through his door so he can take it up to her so she knows we are thinking of her. The other is self explanatory, a thank you card. I hope you like these, I am sure you will be seeing a few more like this but maybe using different colour combinations and stamps.
