About Me

My Photo
Hi my name is Tab and I'm married to Leigh, and we live in a little village in Leicestershire, UK with our very cuddly Shih Tzu called Teddy and between him and Leigh they make me laugh each day! I love to spend my time either doing a bit of crocheting or inking up a rubber stamp....truly love both and I love to dabbling in a bit of cake decorating too :o)

Mimosa Roses!

Good afternoon, one and all! Hope that you well :o)

Today I have a card to share with you that is part of a set that I have made for The Hobby House.  I got to work with some of those gorgeous Bildmalarna Stamps again.  This little cutie is called Mimosa Roses, and she is too sweet for words.  Jill will be attending Stamp Magic @ The Dome in Doncaster this weekend, and these stamps will be available to buy there along with all the papers, flowers and other gorgeous embellishes that I have used.

The papers are called First Addition – Summer Breeze and I have to tell you they are one of the nicest paper pads I have had in a long while, the colours are just to die for……..turquoises, peaches, pinks, beiges and browns…..yummy!

As I have said all the embellishments {including the flowers} are from The Hobby House and will be available to buy this weekend at Stamp Magic, or you can call Jill at the Shop and place an order over the phone.

The image has been coloured using Prisma Pencils and blended with Sansodor.  I have added copious amounts of stickles too LOL…..Jill also stocks this too.

The pretty little charm and spacer did start out as silver, but I gave them a little coating of white paint, just to make them look a bit more shabby chic!

I have also dabbed a bit on the flowers too, along with some stickles, and glimmer mist…….they sparkle beautifully in the light :o)

No inside done :o(……..it would be a waste as you won’t see it……

Well that is all from me today, thanks so much for stopping by!

Got to get cracking and finish off my Magnolia Ink stuff next, so it will be sample cards from me for the next few days :o)

Another winner for me Tab. The colours are absolutely gorgeous. Love all the little elements you've added.. painting the silver white for the added shabby look is a fab idea... I love the way you stamp the corners on your image.. it's very very effective... love it! hugs Sharon x
