It is that time of the month when we like to remind you about our current challenge at We Love Stamping. The theme this time is Stamp of the Moment, that stamp that has your imagination working overtime right now.
I've got a bit of a think for AALL & Create at the moment. This wren image was part of a recent purchase from the TV channel and I fell in love with it. The style of AALL & Create appeals to my more unconventional style and gave me permission to play. First the stamp onto card trimmed to post card size. The wren has coloured with felt pens. Next a Tando stencil the one with circles inks dusted through 3 times each layer slightly offset from the previous one. Another stencil used top and bottom with green ink. The final touch a circle to highlight the stamped image the inside of a tape roll used for this large circle was moved a little each time to make the circle a little rougher.
Now you might be asking who on earth would you send a card like this to? Well during the first lockdown I got back into crafting using postcards as a starter and sending them to lots of people I know as lockdown RAKs. This one could be sent to anyone of those people 'cause they are my friends and family!
You can enter We Love Stamping up to 3 times in a month, each entry gets you into the prize draw.
Now of course I'd like to enter my postcard int a challenge or as well.
