Yippie it's monday, not just my day off and therefore declared craft day but also a new compendium challenge.
So this week we are inking grunge, funny that, I've kinda been doing that the past few days as is. Now I have to apologize for the bad photo, I will retake the picture with daylight some time this week. It's just that I won't have time tomorrow when I normally take my photos, I am off to Ikea to stock up on frames and mirrors to alter! Better take a big bag!
Also apologies for the picture being inserted from flickr, it just didn't want to be the right way up when inserted here so I uploaded it there instead and inserted it that way. Anyway....
So I just got a bunch of Wendy Vecchi stamps (finally!!!! been waiting for back orders for ages!) and gave them a little test run. More cards to be blogged this week.
And OMG I just got the most amazing parcel this morning. I bought a whole lot of vintage buttons from ebay, they are still on their cards. Pretty funky. Had to use some straight away for my flowers. And I may have to share some in another candy so watch this space.
Ta da! xxx
Awesome cards! Love the Wendy style! Aren't they great stamps?? Love these!
ReplyDeleteLove your cards! Very pretty!
ReplyDeleteVery cool cards, i am loving the alpha background.. is that a wendy stamp too i need it
ReplyDeleteBravo, Anika! Your cards are gorgeous, and tulips are so sweet and beautiful! I love the background, too. From a distance, it looks like woven grasscloth, then when you see it close up you realize it's the alphabet stamps. Great embellishments, too. You have inked the grunge to perfection!
ReplyDeleteI was just looking at that stamp yesterday - decisions! Very pretty cards, really like the background and the little wrought iron fence look is a great finishing touch.
ReplyDeleteLove your wonderful cards and your use of vintage embellishments!
ReplyDeleteLove the tulip - these are lovely cards. Can you get some frames for me too, lol!
