More Hobby Art Samples

Good morning, did you see the lovely Jenny from Hobby Art on Create & Craft yesterday? If you did, you witnessed a real treat of demoing magic! What Jenny can do with the 'Wink of Stella', well just blooming wonders!
 
Here are a couple more of my samples that she kindly shared on the TV.
 
Firstly, I have created a scene, using the gorgeous set 'Woodland Scenes', there are so many great little stamps on these sets.
 
 
Next, a quick little card using the very popular 'Owls' set, which I think flew and sold out lol!
 
 
This little card was made using the 'Woodland Scenes' again

 
If you would like any of these gorgeous stamps or some 'Wink of Stella' pens, just pop on over via HERE - go fill your boots or baskets even lol!
 
Thanks for stopping by, hope you have liked my cards today.

Winter Robin

 
Happy Friday to you!
 
I have been a bit of a quiet blogger this week, I have been up to my eyes in DT samples so haven't had much time to get on here, let alone load anything lol.
 
Anyhow, here is a little card I made, using the gorgeous new Hobby Art - 'Winter Robin' stamp.  The 'Happy Christmas' sentiment is from a great set called 'Winter Wishes'.  Both sets can be purchased from the Hobby Art website HERE.
 
Am so chuffed, as I have nearly got all of my Christmas presents sorted yesterday.  I had a day out of the house and spent it shopping and am so relieved to have nearly completed the task. The shops are getting quite busy already.  I even got the Turkey Crown and most of the food which is now filling the freezer, so had a large Costa with one of those gorgeous new 'Brie & Bacon' Panini's, well sometimes you just have to treat yourself lol!
 
Have a great weekend and keep warm and thanks for stopping by!

My Owl Cards

Good evening, am sharing a couple of cards I have made recently using two gorgeous little owl images from Little Claire.
 
Firstly, here is my DT card for the new challenge that started on Saturday, the theme being 'Christmas'.  There is a great prize up for grabs, if you want to join in, just pop on over
 
 
I have used some gorgeous papers from a 'First Edition' paper pad and teamed up with kraft card and lots of stickles.
 
Secondly, 'Little Owl Family' image has been used on my 'Little Claire Likes' card.  I have used a festive paper pad called 'Nordic Christmas'.  This little stamp isn't a Christmas image, so I covered over the flowers with small snowflakes.

 
Back to my craft room, have lots of dt work to get done.
 
Have a great evening!

Tea Party Card

 
Happy Monday to you!
 
Have been feeling a bit 'meh' all weekend. I have got a small cold which now seems to be going away as I have taken a lemsip.  I swear by these when a cold approaches, they really work and don't taste too bad!
 
Anyway, here is a little card that I have made for the 'Little Claire Likes' project.  I have used the 'Tea Party' stamp set which is just beautiful!  You can make so many gorgeous feminine cards with the elements in the set and the sentiments are so sweet!
 
I have used some lovely papers from the First Edition paper pad 'Floral Pavilion' and some pastel promarkers.
 
You can purchase the set for only £6.99 (normally £8.99) until Thursday 14th November, just pop over HERE.
 
Off to the craft room as have lots of DT work to get done and I must do some more Christmas cards.  Have been watching all of the new Christmas adverts on the telly and I must say, its made me feel very festive!
 
Have a great day, I will be back tomorrow morning to share my Ali-Craft project with you.

Bertie & Robins

Happy Friday to you!
 
Firstly, welcome to my new followers - thank you for joining in my blog.  I will be over to visit yours soon.
 
Here is a little card that I am sharing using a few of the stamps from the new sets from Hobby Art.
 
 
I have mixed and matched the stamps together and have stamped the snowflake around the edge of the white card and then again in the centre of the sentiment.

The stamps I have used on my card are :
 
Bertie the Snowman, Robin & Friends, Christmas Robins & Winter Wishes
 
I have also used some of the glorious 'Wink of Stella' glitter, you can buy any of the products listed HERE.  Or if you are visiting the NEC, do pop by the stand and say Hi to Jenny and the gang!

Am off out for lunch with my eldest daughter, she lives nearby and I don't get to see her very often due to busy her work schedule, so am really looking forward to catching up.

Have a lovely day!

Good morning,
 
Am up to my eyes in glorious new stamps, so am busy making lots of DT cards. I wanted to share my project for 'Little Claire Likes' over on the Little Claire blog.
 
I have made a little set of a male themed card & bookmark with the great stamp 'Stopwatch'. Such a great image to use.  You can purchase this stamp at the special price of £3.99 (normally £5.50) until Thursday of this week.
 
Here is my card & bookmark.
 
 
I have glossy accented the watch on the bookmark and the one on the front of the card, hope you can see them clearly.  Full instructions & products are shown on the LC blog.
 
Off to grab a large coffee and then back to the craft room.  Have just counted over thirty starlings on my bird table, a Hitchcock film has just popped into my head - help lol!
 
Have a lovely day!

New Swirlball Flowers Stamp set

 
Good evening,
am sharing a couple of DT cards that I have made for Little Claire using the gorgeous new November Club Stamp - 'Swirlball Flowers'.
 
I have made two very different cards using the set, the first above has been made by stamping one of the little flowers all around the kraft card.  I have them decoupaged the larger image added smaller ones to the centre and sentiment on the card.

 
The card above has been left quite plain. I have just stamped up the central image, coloured in and decoupaged a couple of the flowers and added tiny pearls to their centres.
 
The sentiment on this set are so lovely, just right for friend cards.  If you want to purchase the set/join the club etc., you can see the set via HERE
 
Will be back tomorrow with my Ali Craft DT card for the new Challenge.
 
Thanks for stopping by,
 
Heidi
