Music To Her Ears

If you know of anyone who studies music, plays an instrument or purely has a passion for music then this particular stamp from Flappers #3 is such a perfect stamp to create a card.

It is an elegant and what I would class as a mature stamp so I married it up with this dramatic paper from Paris Nights paper pad adding touches of sheet music.

Detail photographs are displayed over at my Blog, Adorn.

A little reminder that we would like to see your Hallowe'en artwork for the latest TSC. Just click the link on the sidebar for The Stampsmith Challenge and you will find all the information you require to enter your art.

The Playful Nature of Her Gaze

Hi
For this week's DT artwork I am using a stamp from Flappers #3. As I mentioned on my Blog, Adorn, I can never stay away from The Stampsmith's Flappers for too long.They are such gorgeous stamps. Reaching for another favourite set, Say It With Flair plate I selected "Beauty" which I stamped repeatedly onto a piece of pattern paper.

By chance I had dyed some fabric flowers for a project some months ago, they were the perfect match for the papers and lace I used. Although she isn't wearing one, I wanted a cluster of flowers to resemble flowers such as those seen on a wrist corsage.

A little reminder that TSC Faux Technique is underway. You have until 14th of September to create art for this challenge, with a new challenge theme, Top 3 entries and the random winner's name for the $10 voucher for The Stampsmith store all being announced on 15th of September.
