Swapsies

Hello everyone,

When you read this I will be going on my holibobs... Hubby is taking me to Wales to walk them hills... makes me tired just thinking about it, lol ! Luckily there will also be lots of great food and wine... and we are staying in a fabulous holiday home. So not all bad ! haha.

I have been busy making stuff to get ahead and today I am showing you two pieces I have made for swaps. I try and swap some stuff every month and this particular group (UK Stampers Forum) is fantastic. There are great people and a friendly atmosphere. It is just a fun group. If you are interested in joining in here is the LINK to the page. Anyway, here are my two pieces for the swap for July:


This one is for the postcard swap and was made with acrylic paints, stamps by Tim Holtz (Sea Life) and Copic Markers to colour the fish. I finished it off with a Small Talk sticker also by Tim Holtz. 



This one if for the decorated tag swap and was real simple to make.  I die cut the tag and then I just stamped Jillian's head several times on it, making sure to turn it every time.  I then stamped her again on a separate piece of paper. I coloured this one with watercolour markers (ZIG) and then matted her on black paper. The sentiment was stamped and matted on black as well. I then put the whole thing together. All stamps I used are by Stampotique Originals. 

Thank you so much for stopping by today !
