Cards ...

Hiya girls ,

Some cards with new stamps again :-) All stamps are from Stampingback , except the quote ... Backgrounds are done with liquid watercolor, also from Stampinback !!

Some people asked me what I am gonna do with all those cards ..... and the answer is ... I don't know !!! I send them , but my family and most of my friends , they don't apreciate handmade cards ... I send cards to close internet friends ....

But most of the cards are in boxes , if I stop making cards now, I will have more than enough to send the rest of my life ! Sometimes I wanna stop , if I see all those boxes ....... but I just like making them !!

Thanks for looking !!

hugs, Patti

Serenity (again)

Hiya girls ,

For me this gorgeous stamp from Artistic Outpost is just perfect if you want to make some simple , classy cards ... the stamp is beautiful enough !!!

For both cards I made the background with the brayer, dye inks and some watermist ...

Thanks for looking !!

Victorie socks

Hiya girls ,

Yessss, I started a new pair of socks ...... This times there's a pattern in the socks and it is called Victorie .

The yarn that I am using is from Regia and until now I really don't like the colors .... actually I hate that yellow and orange .... I hope the other colors will brighten up the socks a bit, LOL

Forever Stamps

Hiya Girls

On Brigitta's blog there is a challenge to creat something with her stamps .... Because I really love Brigitta's stamps, I had to make a card ..

For this card , the background , I added first a layer from Cats eyes in different colors in DTP technique ..... the second layer is dye inks brayered over de pigment ink, than I stamped the tribalmotive with bleach ...... and than the lizzard with StazOn ..

The Indian and feathers were stamped separatedly and added on the background ..
