Inkspired Sketch Blog Hop 12


Hello again and welcome to my blog. You may have joined from the delightful Marlene Goulder who always has a beautiful card for us to enjoy. Please take the time to hop around and see everyone's cards.
Our thoughts this week turn to all the people that have been affected by cyclone "Marcia" and "Lam", the damage has been devastating. We are thinking of them and here I was whinging because one of the many storms this week that hit us took out our phone and internet line....thankful for mobile phones and WI-FI!
To add a smile to us all thought I would share one of my many kangaroo pics....
Sitting down on the job!!
Now back to card making and here is the sketch that Teneale has given us this week


I am liking this one more than last fortnight's. I wanted to use one of the new stampsets  from the New Occasions catalogue....but I needed a birthday card for hubbie as he has a birthday this week and he loves boats.. so I went with The Open Sea.. love this stampset..so versatile
First I stamped the words in crumbcake in background after stamping off once, perhaps I should have stamped off twice to get a lighter effect what do you think? 
Used Pacific Point ink for the ship and the  words and a bit of sponging Love the Baked Brown Sugar thick twine...My apologies for the inside shot, got home to late to take a pic outside.


Still not happy so up early to get an outside pic see below
Which one do you think is the better shot? I prefer the outside one...

INKspired Sketch Blog Hop 11 -

Hello everyone and welcome to our next Blog Hop,we are so glad that you could join us. If you have come across from Marlene Goulder's blog welcome and I hope you enjoy the card I have made.
Just a quick pic of one of the many kangaroos around at the moment.
Do take the time to hop around all the blogs as we love to see everyone visit and we also love the comments that you take the time to leave.

Well here is the sketch that Teneale has given us this fortnight

Well I have taken some artistic license with it by having no circle as such but having three rhinestones that are circular .......(the circle just did not work for me, I tried..sigh)



I normally like bright colours but am trying other colour families. Used Pink Pirouette DSP with a fine border of Pink Pirouette cardstock behind, some sponging with same ink. Thin strip of Pink Pirouette cardstock over the DSP.
Flowers and leaves stamped from the Painted Petals set on white and the shape is from the Labels collection framelits. Then a butterfly stamped from Papillon Potpourri and punched.

Thank you for stopping by.


Now it is on to the lovely Narelle Macey
