Figuring some more!!!

Good Monday morning to you....... only two Mondays left of the summer hols so I'm treasuring them :0)

I'm back today with another card featuring Figure Effects but only one, as crafting time has escaped me this week!!

The tiny bowler hat in this set made me look at those two seated figures and see an interview taking place... albeit a rather informal one.. Lol!!!

Now I know it's rare to see a city worker in a bowler hat these days but with these simple figures its the suggestion that counts and to add a bit of extra contrast and detail I used some striped material to cover a piece of chipboard as a backdrop for this simple scene.

Both the Lawn Fawn Alphabet and Labelled Love are out of stock at the moment but you could use any combination of sentiments from your stash...you could even make it a 'Good Luck in your interview' card instead!!  

                                         

Just a quick reminder to check out this weeks challenge at Paper Smooches Sparks, it's Anything Goes and why not combine it with one of the colour palettes in our own monthly challenge here at Make the Day Special Stamp Store... the details and linky tool are here :0)

Thanbks for stopping by

My Favourite Figures!!

Hello there :0)

I'm a little later posting today.... trying to get back into my groove after a fun weeks holiday with the family :0)
Whilst I was away I see the fab new Altenew stamps arrived in store so I thought I'd get mine inky to show you one of my fave's from the first release.....

Yep, it's those stick people in Figure Effects!!! these two imparticular grabbed my attention as they look like they are high 5'ing and CASual Fridays stamps have just the right sentiment to go with them for a simple CAS card :0)

What I like about these figures is that they are individual stamps which adds to the versatility of this set....move them around and add the young lady figure and you have yourself a party going on.....

They're cutting some fine dance moves and again a sentiment from the same CASual Fridays set  Woot Woot is the perfect match :0)
After embossing them in white I stamped some musical notes and stars with Versamark ink along with an oval shadow to ground these guys... a generous coating of sparkle adds to the party feel :0)

I have plenty of ideas for the other figures on this set and the sentiments are great too..... perfect for those clean and simple cards !!
                                      

Thanks for stopping by today, catch you next week :0)
