Hi Everyone
Happy Wednesday!
I did actually manage to created a teeny tiny card yesterday (a whole 3.5 inches square for anyone new to my blog).
It was made "very early doors" using snippets of card, paper and ribbon that were lying around and about my desk ahead of a bride calling by to look at some wedding stationery samples I had put together for her.
But then the day took hold and I never got chance to actually post my little creation .. .. so here it is today .. ..
This used:
Image: Craft Sensations Clear Stamps"Ref No. CR0274/19A" (not that it links to my stamp set)
Sentiment: Polkadoodles "PD7995" Super Sentiments
Backing Papers from the snippet collection
Ribbon
Milled Lavender Distress Ink
My Trusty Sewing Machine
I can't resist typewriter images and was really surprised by just how well this lovely image stamped out. It was part of a super cheap and cheerful stamp set which I bought from The Works whilst we were in Rippon at the beginning of December. Even taking the stamp out of the packet and inking it up I wasn't expecting much .. .. but I was actually super pleased with the result.
My intention when I purchased the set was to use the images with faint ink to create backgrounds .. .. but stamped out I can see it is going to be a far more useful set than I first imagined and I have my fingers crossed that the rest of the images in the set behave as nicely .. .. ..
.
So that is me for today. Coffee break over and time to get my head down and back into work mode!! If you can call playing with stamps, paper, inks and ribbons work!! LOL!!
Stay safe everyone! Let's hope this rain stops soon!

A very cute card Jules and the typewriter looks great. I have bought many items from there but not the stamps. Just might to have a closer look at them! I do like their paper pads and dies. Enjoy your playing, or should I say 'work' Lol!! Big hugs and love, Carol S.xx

Great card - showing my age here, would you believe that is just like the typewriter I used when I was working in my 'secretary' days.

Oh how I love this teeny tiny Jules! That typewriter stamp is amazing and so fabulous! I love old typewriters too. Wish I had one just like it in real life. lol The colors and papers you used on this card are so pretty, loving that gingham ribbon too. And of course your stitching. I so need to start stitching on my cards. Maybe when I redo my craft room, I can find room for my sewing machine to set up. Love, love, love your teeny tiny's! Hugs, Brenda
ReplyDeleteI can't resist typewriters either! Lovely card.
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet card, lovely stamps ! I find those clear stamps here in a big shop-chain, called "Action". Love, Enny
