INKspired Sketch Blog Hop 47 -


Hi and welcome to our 47th hop. 

You may have landed here or hopped across from the delightful 
Allison McLeod and I can't wait to see
what she has made this fortnight
These hops occur fortnightly and Teneale gives us a sketch 
that we all work with.
Now here is the sketch for this fortnight
I wasn't quite sure what to make with this sketch

I decided to use the Fancy Frost Speciality DSP. I sponged a circle over the DSP using Dapper Denim.

I then cut the circle from one of the Delicate White Doilies and sponged it in place which gave a deeper blue to the area. Guess what I cut two doilies instead of one - sometimes hard to pull apart!!!
Then I stamped the Birthday Blooms rose and coloured it in using a Blender pen and Dapper Denim ink. Used a mixture of greens for the leaves including Old Olive. 
I then cut the rose and left only the main flower and leaves
to stick on my card!
I was a bit naughty as I didn't add a sentiment....

Thank you for joining us tonight.
Please take the time to hop around all the blogs.
Now it is onto the gorgeous

Barbara Williams and I can't wait to see what she has made

ESAD 2017 Occasions and Sale-a-bration Sneak Peek Blog Hop -


Hello and welcome to the ESAD 2017 Occasions Catalogue 
and Sale-a-Bration sneak peek. What a mouthful to say but this is such an exciting time for us 
and our customers - we all love January till March as you get free product when you spend $90.00 in Australia).
You may have hopped across from
Cheryl Algie and I can't wait to see
what she has made.

I went with the beautiful stampset High Tide which I am loving. Made a main card first then made a few tags.

Such a great set to work with. Applied a tag to one of
our clear tiny treat boxes that are
in the main catalogue.
 Used the burlap ribbon for the tags


Hope you enjoyed my sneak peek.
