Dandelion Frame

Annabel again :) I've had this stamp since Christmas waiting to be used and finally I've got round to it! Hero Arts stamps are my favourite physical stamps (as opposed to digital.) I'm even still using wooden backed ones from my crafty past! Still trying for a One Layer design which I almost managed on the one and failed on the other. (Managed to stamp the frame upside-down, don't laugh)


So stamps used -
Dandelion Frame CG153 Hero Arts.
Greeting is by Hot Off The Press (rather old stamp, but I like it.)
Butterflies are, I think, a recent docrafts set.

The wood paper is from a brilliant pad by Joy Crafts called Wood Texture Paper Block. Thought it would be super useful for boy cards too.

Marvel Age of Ultron Nail Card

It's Annabel again. When my friends bf asked for a "nails themed" card I was somewhat challenged! But never say I won't tackle anything, because I will. :) (Please see earlier card involving Helicopter and Orang-u-tan lol.)

This is an Age of Ultron themed set of finger nails card. The nails were painted onto card "nails" and then shaped to try and recreate a fingernail effect. The are supposed to be ( I tried my best!) Hawkeye, Thor, Iron Man, Captain America and The Hulk - green version.


I hope she enjoyed it as much as I did making it. :)


I suppose you could use this as template to do any kind of nails, but I suspect it might be a bit of a niche market? What do you think?

Midsummer Nights Dream - Anthera of the Woods DT Helen

Anthera Lady of the Woods by Moonflower Digi Stamps just conjured up that Midsummer Nights Dream feeling. Coloured with Copic and background created using glitter texture paste with a few little faeries flying around.
