Rockin' Again!!!

Just a simple card tonight mostly StazOn stamping using a silver gel pen for embellishing some areas.
I really like the combination of black, grey and red.

Been a proper lazy bones tonight and have just finished watching series two of
Lark Rise on IPlay snuggled up in my fleecy blanket instead of getting any work done..........just felt like being lacksadaisical.

Off for a soak in the bath now and a read.

Bye for now

Rock Star!!!

I'm a bit later blogging tonight as I have had to be a proper mummy and cook a nice hot tea for DD who is on night shift and will be out in the cold all night. Then I had to nip upstairs and take pics of the cards I have done today and fiddle about with them on the computer.

At last I have some cards done with the Inkadinkado Rock Star stamp set which I have had in my hot little mitts since before Christmas but which we have only just had in at the shop.
I really love this set.

The red background is Co'redinations Scarlet and I masked off one area to stamp the stars then scratched the top half with my new distressing tool before spraying it with Graphite Glimmer Mist to grunge it up a bit.
The guitar is stamped onto an inky dipped and dragged background of Stream and Denim Adirondack with a final dragging of silver. This has then been sprayed with Lime Twist and Riptide Glimmer Mists........those names just make my mouth water.....lol!!!

Going to take the rest of the night off and watch the start of series two of Larkrise as we have finished series one on DVD and I really liked it even though I didn't expect to.

I keep getting told off for buying all the new stock as it comes into the shop.......lol!!!
Honestly I only have one of each thing.....one of each set of stamps, one of each Glimmer Mist etc.........he he he!!!
If I didn't buy them I wouldn't be able to do any stamping and that would make me very sad............and you don't want a sad Manic now do ya?
I can't even bear to think about a life without rubber stamps.......makes me go all shuddery.........lol!!!

Anyway I'm orf to goggle at the computer screen for a bit.
Bye for now........and thanks for dropping by.

Back To Black!!!

What a plank!!! I did a card last night with the Rock Star stamps but didn't photograph it as the Glossy Accents wasn't dry. Took it to work with me this morning and have forgotten to bring it back home.
So tonight I am sharing a Cuttlebugged card done on black Co'redinations from the Spellcaster pack. This one has a lime green centre and is just so yummy.
The folder is from an A6 Cut and Emboss set and this one debosses rather than embosses.
I'll post the Rock Star card tomorrow.

I have bought home an obscene amount of new stock tonight......including seven sets of stamps and seven new Glimmer Mists..........lol!!! All I need now is forty eight hour days to play with them.

I'll get off and get stamping.
Thanks for dropping by.

Return To Cutesville!!!

Another card done using the same stamp set as yesterday. this one has had a bit of everything chucked at it.............lol. Still pencils and LOT's with a touch of Stickles but I have added a Cuttlebugged card blank and some paper flowers, pearls and ribbon.
Going to get back to inky things tonight as I am hoping to be working with a set of rock star stamps by Inkadinkado once my 'have to' jobs have been done.

For shop customers who read my blog........we have had lots of new stuff in over the last few days. Lots of stunning new Inkadinkado stamps, more Glimmer Mists, another new set of stamps from Elusive Images and some very bargainous stuff from Docrafts. We've had to have a move round to fit it all in but it's now all out apart from the Glimmer Mists as I ran out of day before I ran out of jobs to do.

Been fed and watered so I'm off upstairs now to sort out my jobs and get inky.
Thanks for your visit.

I Don't Belieeeeeeeeve It!!!

Here's something you don't see very often..........a cute card on Manicstamper's blog....lol!!!
I mentioned the other day that I had bought some cute stamps and these are they.
A set of Penny Black clear stamps with a lovey dovey theme.
Stamped in StazOn Jet Black and mostly coloured with pencils and low odour thinners though I did use Stardust pens for the flowers as they were so tiny.
The flowers along the base of the bottom panel have been stamped using the top stamp upside down.
The balloon is finished with Glossy Accents and the heart with Stickles.
There will be another cutie tomorrow......if I put two on the same post I fear my blog will explode.
Joking aside......I did quite enjoy doing these for a change.

Sorry I haven't blogged for a couple of days but Friday I spent the afternoon in bed with a migraine and Saturday I was doing my Domestic Goddess impersonation and cleaning the bedrooms.
Hubby was cooking today so I went for a ride out with DD for an hour this morning and we ended up at Hobby Horse Crafts at Elvaston. I only wanted a sheet of purple Bazzill but DD spoilt me rotten while we there and bought me some Kelly Panacci stamps and some ribbon.........not that I need any more of either......lol!!!
Actually I didn't really do any shopping. It was DD who had the basket as I was so busy talking to my lovely mate Sal who works there..........Hi Sal........and Paula.

I'm off to blurf for a bit until Dancing On Ice starts...........oooooh I so love Sunday.
Hope you have all had a great weekend.
Thanks for stopping by.
