Digital Stamp Delight !

Good Morning!

As you're reading this I will have been up since 4:30am, you've got to love getting up at that time for an early shift at work!

I've managed to stick to my intentions though and carry on crafting when I get a spare couple of hours, which is exactly what I did yesterday afternoon on my day off. I also seem to have managed to stick to another intention of using more Digital stamps ... let's hope I can keep this up lol

Today's card is using a Digital Stamp by Mo's Digital Pencil, I've had it a little while but I never got around to printing it out, until now!

4x4 Winter Card Set ... Part 1 !

Good Morning!

As I mentioned in my last post I was trying to get my stamp purchases inked up from the past month or two that had sadly been neglected since being delivered by the postie.

Today's card is using one of these stamps but it's also part of a set of 2! 

Both today's stamp and the one featured in my next post are of a similar design so I thought I'd make a set of 2 cards ... that are also of a smaller 4x4 size!

Warm Winter Fairy Wishes !

Good Morning!

Well my fortnight off work is coming to an end today, needless to say I'm feeling rather subdued as it's gone too quickly and I didn't get half the stuff done that I'd intended to ... ho hum.

The rate of cards I make will probably reduce again but I shall do my best to keep it up, the urge to actually craft seems to have well and truly returned!

Today's card is another Christmas card (sorry!) but I treated myself to some new and older LOTV stamps a month or so ago and I was determined to try and get the majority of them inked up throughout my time off. Fingers crossed I'l get some more done today!
