Addicted to stamps and more-sketch challenge

Hello Everyone. A bright but very cold day here so I have been doing some crafting-what a mess the table looks now so I guess some tidying is called for when I have done this post.

Time for another sketch at Addicted to Stamps and more. Love sketch challenges as they are a great way to get some cards in hand and especially this time of year.


The stamp is one I have had a very long time by inkadinkadoo but it always makes me smile. Coloured it with Promarkers and the lipstick ran a bit -well it usually does after a few drinks lol. Not that I have had a few drinks !

The patterned paper I made myself in Painshop Pro and all of the rectangle shapes have been passed through the Cuttlebug in folders to give them some texture.

Not sure where the digi image of Christmas Joy came from but it is lovely.

Hope your day is going well

Love Chrissie xx

    It makes me smile too Chrissie! Love that you've flipped the sketch, and the DSP you used (I'm a sucker for patterned paper) - it's a terrific card! Thanks so much for joining us this week at Addicted to Stamps and More!

Hi All. Thank you for visiting today and I hope you like what you see here. A fine bright day but colder today so I may fit in a walk later though I had some curtains to make before I do anything else. At Tag Tuesday this week the theme is Diva. I don't always remember to show my tags for there as you need to be a member and and do your own posts on Tag Tuesday's blog. I chose Elizabeth Taylor as my Diva she was so beautiful in films but definitely a Diva in her private life. Art Journal Journey are still drawing me in with the artists inspired theme so here is yet another page for the challenge there.  This was inspired by Damien Hirst though years ago I didn't feel inspired by his work at all when I saw some of it for real at the Liverpool Tate Gallery. We had gone there to see the wonderful Rodin sculpture 'The Kiss' which graced the entrance to the Gallery. Then we strayed into the next part and a whole wall was covered in dots. It didn't look like art to
