This is a scheduled post because I am currently wandering around Oxford looking at University Colleges with Hannah and hubbie .... I'm sure I'll be in awe of it all , it's such a lovely city:)
So , with great excitement , here is my first card using the new Paper Smooches stamps that were released at the beginning of the month , they are so cool .
I've actually used two of the sets to make this little Jellyfish ...... his head is from the ice cream in 'Sugar Rush' and his tentacles are fish tales from 'Surf & Turf' .
I've used Tim Holtz ink to colour the panel as the sea and used the seagull squiggle to make the waves , all the other images are coloured using promarkers .
Kim's Stamps are so versatile because they can be mixed and matched so easily , coloured and paper pieced . I would love for you to try them too ...... which leads nicely onto my little give-away this month , which is a way of me saying Thank you to all you lovely ladies that visit my blog and leave such sweet comments :)
I have three PS stamp sets to give away and today it's the turn of Spiffy scooters.....
I have 2 more stamps sets to give away, so for the next two weeks , pop back on the Wednesdays for a chance to win other sets of the gorgeous PS stamps.
That's it .... I've probably managed to make it sound more complicated than it is but I hope you'll agree it's a fair and fun way to say Thank you ....... I can't remember how I filled my time before crafting and blogging ...... oh yes I have a poor neglected but very understanding family , lol
Thank you so much for joining me today and I hope you like my card X
