Throwback Thursday

Hello!

You will see me every Thursday from now on,and I thought it would be nice to revisit some of the awesome older stamps,papers and dies in the shop. All the new stuff is positively drool-worthy,but we musn't forget how excited we were with previous releases ;-D

 So here is my 'card'-a slightly different card this week,using some of my hoarded old packaging as its base and the gorgeous Paper Smooches Briny Blue and Surf and Turf and the sentiment from Hang Ups,out of stock at the moment,but will be back in store :-) 

The packaging is that clear floppy plastic as apposed to the ridged packaging that make great shaker cards. Static does a lot of the work for you holding things in place,so there is no need for any adhesive in this type of card. All the sea folk are stamped and painted onto watercolour card,using the colour palette. I stamped,coloured and cut everything I thought I would use and arranged it 

Then carefully sandwiched it together and machine sewed loose rings around the outside. The jellyfish and seahorse needed a little extra anchoring,so I ran a few stitches through them,voila! Can be hung anywhere to catch the light :-)

As you know,the DT has a colour challenge this week-this scrummy colour palette


There is still time to play along with this fun colour challenge,and you can upload your submissions here

See you next week for another Throwback Thursday!

Used today-back in stock soon!:

Photobooth fun!!

Hello again and Happy weekend to you :0)

I've made a card to show you using the cheeky little squirrel from the Paper Smooches set called Hang Ups.... this is what I reckon would happen if he came across a photo-booth!!!


I love this cute little chap and it was great to get him inked up again... he was the reason I started buying Paper Smooches stamps, Hang Ups was my first set and my collection has grown from there :0)

To make the little Polaroid photos I carefully inked the square speech bubble in 'He Said She Said' and then drew in the gap to make a complete square.
I made a slightly smaller square mask in a post it note so I could stamp and ink through so as to leave a white edge, then cut them out and strung them on the hemp cord with tiny paper clips. 
I thought the cork effect paper would make a great pin-board type background, just right for the display :0)
The big funky exclamation mark is great to emboss, cut out and use on most of the Paper Smooches sentiments.
The Paper Smooches sets I've used are 
  • He Said, She Said
  • Hang Ups
  • Sentiment Sampler
Thanks for looking and I hope I've inspired you to pull out an old favourite stamp set you haven't used for a while and get it inky again and remember if you've used stamps from the store, you can share your creations on the Make the Day Secial Flickr gallery here, we'd love to see what you make :0)

Have a great weekend.
