Good morning, and thank you for joining me today. ...it is 9-20 am and I have walked the dogs, had breakfast and just hung some washing out. So before I start my craft jobs for today I thought I would share two samples with you that nearly got away.... I made them for Barbara and her show for USA...
They were an extra make so I am afraid there was no time for step by step photos...
The first one was to showcase the mask and the wonderful stamps, the moonshadow, silhouette trees and mini flock...
I wanted to try and make an evening scene, where the castle is lit up, with lots of spotlights....
Here is a closer look...Lots of stamping....First and second generation....
For the second one , I wanted to use the tree stamp....but not as a tree...
You know me....as a wreath....
And here is the finished card using numbers from the alphabet numbers set.....
Cool idea for a man .....what do you think ?
As always I love to read your comments...you see I love my little blog .....as although I do put things on social media I do find some people can use it as a form of bullying...it can be such a horrible world....
So I love to surround myself with lovely friends...some coffee, cake....and we can just chat and share ideas....
Have a good day all....and be kind to each other....
Hugs.....
Jo. xxxx

Hi Jo, beautiful scene, love the colours and tones and very clever wreath.....xx
Wow Jo these are fantastic! Love the atmosphere of the evening castle and the wreath is a fantastic idea - who'd have thought of using a tree??!!
Enjoy the rest of your day xxx
Beautiful Jo. I do love all the wreaths you create, You have a wonderful style. Shame if people are cruel but just ignore them. I agree a great male card, stored in my memory now for difficult men in family. Thankyou. xx
Wow Jo your castle card is stunning! I just love your ideas - hopefully they'll run off on me one day 😄 xx
Oh my goodness Jo these are gorgeous...your techniques never fail to leave me ASTOUNDED!! Hope that you are well!
Take care,
Beth
Beautiful card, love the moonshadow with all that stamping! I really must remember to give the wreath card a try as I love them when you show us, such clever techniques. Xx
Fantastic, lovely moody feel to the landscape piece, both are lovely designs xx
Just love the spotlights on the castle . Think I'm a long way off from being able to get that effect . A cup of coffe and cake sounds delightful. I'm going to try a walk the weather here in Virginia is unbearable . It's 95 f and humidity of 50% and heat index of 105 . Thank you God for air conditioning .
Oh Janice that does sound hot...it has been very dark , and miserable day here...you could send us some sun please....hugs...xxx
