Rubber Stamping - North Wales

Good morning everyone. I am sorry I am a little later in posting these photos than I said I would. I had intended to show them last night - but had not had a good day & couldn't concentrate to do it. But, I am here now & there are some lovely cards to show you.  Carolyn set the challenge as embossing - any sort you wanted. Here are the photos; Annette Background is an embossing folder. Cup Cuff & words heat embossed & glossy accents on the coffee beans. Carolyn Carolyn has adapted a style of card she uses The snowdrops are embossed with silver EP & also coloured with Honey Doo pearl powders. Three photos to show the whole effect of the card. Cathy Design stamped with clear ink & heat embossed with white EP, then watercoloured. Dot Very clean & classic style from Dot Elizabeth Elizabeth used a Sweet poppy stencil with pearlescent White Paste and Super fine Satin Glitter. She explained it had t...

Good morning everyone to another lovely sunny day.  I do hope you are keeping safe & well & managing to find lots of things to do. This morning I have the photos sent in to me from the CSNW group ladies of their Show & Tell cards. I set the challenge as a card featuring circles. Colour scheme, theme, size of card their choice; Grace Wow! there is certainly circles on this one. See the next photo  Grace mentioned in her email that she did not have any stamps for circles so like a true Crafter she made them. Looks like die-cut fun foam to me just glued to cardboard. Brilliant. Amy (Grace's sister) Sending us some lovely sunshine. Gwen An Art Journal / Mixed Media style from Gwen. Love it. Me I decided to use my dies & some lovely little stamps I discovered in my stash. The card is 2 circles with the back one scored about 1" down from the top to create a hinge Ruth Ruth's circles are ball...

Good morning everyone. How are you all?  I hope you are keeping safe, well & happily occupied. Today I have the photos of the cards that the Mold group ladies did for a Show & Tell for the beginning of May. The cards were to be made from a sketch; The sketch Here are their cards; Janet Two totally different styles from Janet Love the complimentary background in the first card. Joan Love these flowers - very retro Joanna Three cards from Joanna The first two almost like the spotlight technique -  which is what the sketch did make me think of. Then the third card - so completely different. At first glance I couldn't think what the pegs were for. After downloading the photos & taking a closer look I could see that Joanna  has pinned them to some sort of trellis on her wall.  Clever idea. Lynn Circles become balloons on Lynn's card Love this style Mair Mair changed the directi...

Good afternoon ladies Sitting here last night I gave a great deal of thought to each of the club nights this month.  As you already know I had to back out of last nights CSWN meeting in Rhuddlan. So I have made the decision not to attend the Mold meeting on Thursday 18th May & the Mold II meeting on Tuesday 23rd May. I have made the decision based on my chest infection & feel that by the June meetings I should be fit again & at no risk of passing anything on. Also hopefully will have built up my strength again. For the Mold meeting on the 18th ............... this was to have been a double evening with Joanna & myself. So Joanna will take the evening showing you the card to be made with the butterflies you were given to decorate.  The flowers that are for my part of the evening - please keep them safe & we will use them at the June meeting. For the Mold II meeting on the 23rd ............... this was to have been the same sort of evening.  So thi...

Good afternoon ladies. A couple of days ago I updated the club pages with the information for the May meetings. I will look into updating them again - for the June meeting, as soon as I can.
