Guest Designing for Time Out

 Hi Everyone, I am so honored to be guest designing for the current Time Out challenge , which runs for two weeks. The theme is a photo - see below. I went with the adorable fabric/ bag, which is made by the very talented and lovely Kim Heggins - a former Time Out DT member. She now runs Running Stitch Designs and sponsors the current challenge.  Here are the challenge pictures: And here is a magnified view of teh wonderful bag: I went very close to the doggie fabric und used my beloved Katzelkraft stamps . I colored with Copics. The tiny sentiment is heat embossed and comes from the set  Whatchamacallit  I hope you liked this. Thanks for visiting. Perhaps you'll find time to join the challenge! See you there! Linking up with: Simon Says Wednesday challenge  -add a sentiment Addicted to Stamps and More  - Make Your mark

Topflight Stamps - Bloom Bookmarks

    Hi Everyone, This week it's anything goes on the  Topflight blog .  I decided on making some bookmarks with the pretty Darkroom Door Chrysanthemums. I used water color paper for my background. Sprinkled Brushos (yellow and blue) onto the paper and generously added water to have the colors blend. You can used regular watercolors for this as well.  I stamped the blooms and added a bit of focal color as well as some highlights with a Posca pen. Stamped the sentiment. Lastly I added some ribbons. I dabbed away some of the color from the above bloom, as it was a bit too dark for my taste. I alos added a bit of color to the leaves. On the bookmark below I added a texture stamp on the side and colored it in a bit. I hope you liked this. Thanks for visiting.  See you next week with more  Topflight Stamps  inspiration. And here are the stamp supplies I used:  Beautiful Blooms , Abstract04 Reading , Brusho Yellow , Brusho Prussian Blue Linking up with: Dream Factory  -  Simon Says Wednes
