WOYWW #770

It is Wednesday so I am linking to the Stamping Ground

Follow the link to find out more about What's on Your Work Desk Wednesday and maybe join in... This is my post for WOYWW #770

Here's my desk today - More use of the Gelli plate! You can see some embellished cardboard junk journal pages on the desk easel.

You can also see a page that I have made using a Gelli Mini Printing Tool - a new purchase that came via Amazon this week.

This week I shared some decorated junk journal pages for Gecko Galz - but more pictures will be shown on the 14th.

Every month I decorate a calendar page - the last couple of months have been pretty basic:

April uses Gelli pulls, March has a splat which is acrylic paint pulled off one of my palettes.

Last month I swapped Valentine's cards with a few of my friends from the UK Stampers Network. They eventually arrived before the end of the month - the mail is still pretty slow!

Just off to aquarobics... so see you later!

Happy WOYWW!

Addicted to Stamps and More - Birthday Challenge #463

Here's my Birthday project...for Challenge #463 at Addicted to Stamps and More

My card is basically a collage of pieces, with a die cut on top that was lying on my desk.

This was based on a idea from Donna's workshop in a Zoom Craft and Chat with the UK Stampers Network which I still participate in although I live in Australia. This is another in the set of cards I made using this technique.

The sentiment is a stamp from Paper Rose.

Hope you will enter the Addicted to Stamps and More Challenge! Do hop over to see the fabulous inspiration from my team-mates!

Happy Crafting!

Color Dare Challenge #590

This picture shows my make for the

Color My Heart Color Dare Challenge DT

Do pop over to the Color Dare Challenge and take a look at my teamies' makes!

This picture shows the challenge -

Dydd Gŵyl Dewi Hapus

Today is March 1st, St David's Day - so thought I would use daffodils. Nowadays, the daffodil is considered the national flower of Wales and is traditionally worn by those who celebrate St David's Day. Daffodils are a chosen symbol as the flowers bloom early in the year and just in time for St David's Day, an important occasion in Wales.

I used the three colours in acrylic paint and my Gelli plate to make some background pages. I used stamps from Apple Blossom to stamp directly onto one page and a black Posca to emphasise these images. I cut this to matt a green card blank. I stamped more on another page and cut them out to add on top of the first images.

Hope you will join the Color Dare Challenge...

Happy Crafting!
