Gorjuss - Waiting

So today I decided to use another of my new Gorjuss sets. Slowly working my way through them! I have a load of wooden 10x10 blocks to decorate and I used one for this project. It could be a coaster or maybe a little wall plaque.

First I mod podged the block and then used a paper pad from Craft Asylum to decorate it. The stamps are from the Gorjuss set - Waiting. She has been coloured with Copics and Shin Hans and then paper pieced. The sentiment is from Sam Poole which I chopped into single words. I then added a couple of layers of the mod podge over the top. 

I would like to enter this into the Sketch Saturday Challenge as I used the sketch to help me design this.

No2 of the new Gorjuss stamp sets- The Friendly Hedgehog

So today I sat down and made a quick CAS card with another of the new Gorjuss stamps. This one is from a set called "The Friendly Hedgehog".

I've made the card blank and sentiment with the Cricut Explore. For the image I stamped it out, coloured her face and hair with copics and shin hans and then paper pieced her clothes with the Neroli paper pad.

Distressed Box

I haven't blogged or crafted in ages work has got in the way but now I've gone from full time to part time I'm hoping to get back to it. So I was wandering around The Works and saw some wooden blanks. This was one of them.

So I made it into a distressed box.

So the first step was to modge podge the box when that was dry I painted it with some Docraft Acrylic paint in "Sea Spray". After two coats I stamped onto it using Sheena Douglas stamps randomly and pressed some hard, some soft to get the distressed effect. I then used Frantage in Shabby Blue.

I've picked up a few blanks so I'll be showing them in the next few weeks xx

Time for another Little Claire monthly stamp club and this time it has a Christmas theme.

It's called Christmas Scotties and can be found here on the website.

I have made a few samples to show off the stamps

Here I have embossed the background to look like snow and I've used the new Little Claire paper pack called "Puppy Christmas"

Again i've used Little Claire papers and this one is from the "Falling Snow" set.

This one has the "Pastel Tartan" papers.

And here is one of the papers again from the Falling Snow set.

And finally just a little tag using kraft card and white embossing powder.
