Seasons canvasses

Hello, I'm Jane and it's my first post on the Crafts and Me blog today. I'm so thrilled to be able to share my creations with you using the gorgeous digi stamps from Crafts and Me! I have decorated a canvas depicting autumn to share with you today.


The image is the gorgeous Noon from Crafts and Me - she is just stunning and perfect to depict autumn with all those little squirrels! I have used lots of texture and rich autumn colours. For more details on what I've used please see my own blog here. Of course, to make my wall display complete I need the other seasons - here is my summer canvas below that I created for last week's Crafts and Me Challenge.

I used the gorgeous Valentine's Night for this one and again lots of texture in fresh light colours for summer. You can find out more about this one here.

Hope you like them and I've inspired you to create something a little different with your stamps! Have a wonderful day! x

Oh To Be A Fairy

Hi everyone.  It's Angela here to share with you what I have created this week using some of Crafts and Me rubber and Digi images.  Once I got started creating I couldn't stop.  I have been sick now for the past 3 weeks and have a severe case of Bronchitis.  I hope these Meds I'm taking finally get rid of the terrible mess.
Okay enough about me, so now on to my creations I have to share with you.

For this first card I just to buy this new Digi from Sara Burrier and I had to print her out and create with her.
I know you have seen this image a lot this week.  The name of this image is "Forest Friend".

Some of these pictures are a little blurry, but you can click on the pic to see a closer image, which will show more detail.

For my second card I used a Lemon Shortbread unmounted rubber stamp and her name is "Petal Melody" which is currently out of stock.

For my third card I used a rubber stamp by Sara Burrier called "Hollyhock Princess" and you can get her HERE.

I created this card for ' The Deconstructed Sketch DT" challenge this week.  I used another Digi by Sara Burrier and this little sweethearts name is "Noon"

 Thanks so much for stopping by today and I hope I have inspired you.  I get inspired by so many people and their gorgeous creations.

Hugs:)

Noon by Sara Burrier and more

Hey sweet crafters!

Finally the summer is coming to us here i the middle of Norway. Yesterday was incredibly hot for this time of season. It was soooo nice. Maybe i`ll actually manage to get fairly rosted before the summer is over, lol.

Well...anyway...every other saturday it is my (Mona) time to show you my creations. And for my card this time i have used two of the digistamps you can find in the Crafts and Me store. The first one is the lovely "Noon" by Sara Burrier. You can find it right here. The other stamp is the new mushroom fantasy and you can find it here.


I really had so much fun colouring up the mushroom image and i am a bit satisfied with it too. The "Noon" stamp i adhered on 3D coushins to make it pop out a bit.


I was totally in awe when i created my card yesterday. Some new digis by Sara Burrier is soon to arrive int the Crafts and Me store. And they are soooo gorgeous. I just sooooo wanted to use one of them on a card #2 but i had to work this weekend so i didn`t manage to finish my second card in time. So i only have this one to show you for this time. You really have something to look forward to. The digis are absolutely stunning!

I also want to show you the card i made for the pink and sweet challenge. I used the digi created by Hannah Lynn called Mystical Pond. This is one of the fabby new digis from this talented lady that is to be found in the store, right here.



Well...I don`t seem to have enything more to ramble about, thanks for putting up with me, lol. Just a little reminder...you still have the chance to enter the rockin` rubbah team`s Vintage/distressed challenge at the Crafts and Me challengeblog, so make sure to pop on over and join in on the fun.

Introducing Karina

Good Morning Peeps!
Today I would like to say a BIG welcome and thank you to the lovely Karina for joining our wonderful team of girls with her artistic flair and wonderful cards I am sure she will give us lot's of inspiration for our own cards.

Over to Karina,

Hi everybody, Karina here today, with my very first post here at the Crafts and Me Stamps Blog. I'm still so excited and over the moon that I was asked by Teresa to be a part of her very new Digi Team. I was jumping up and down here and felt and still feel sooooooo happy Thank you so much again, Teresa, for have chosen me.

I'm living in Switzerland together with my partner Kurt and our three furry cat friends. I love to craft since I can remember and tried out several stuff. But my big passion is stamping since some years. I am fascinated about the huge variety of images and stuff to work with. And since I started blogging about two years ago, it opened so many other sides to me; meeting many lovely alike thinking peoples around the world and never lost inpirations for new creations since. Another passion of me is photography.

For the first card I am sharing with you I have chosen an image with which I fell in love from the first second I saw her at the Crafts and Me Shop. It is Noon by the wonderful artist Sara Burrier and you can find her here. Isn't she so darling with all those squirrels surrounding her?

When I created this card I let myself inspiring by the actual challenge going on at Crafts and Me Challenges with a photo inspiration as a theme with texture as an additional. And hey, you won't miss it, as there is a one year celebration of the Challenge blog!! Woohoo!!! And as additional prize Teresa is giving 8 digis to a separate draw by Random.org.

Well, thank you peeps for taking a look. Have a wonderful rest of the week everyone!

Hugs, Karina

Here's some I made earlier

In Blue Peter style! Are we sitting down, go grab a coffee I may be some time....!

First up is my challenge card for this week and is ADRIANNA by Hannah Lynn. She is probably one of the easiest of the range to colour, all skin and hair lol! I've added some tiny 2mm iridescent crystals to the bodice and filled the gaps wth stickles and a sprinkle of glamour dust. The background was done with the letrajet (promarker airbrush)

This little beauty is CHRISTMAS MELODY. Oh yes she is!! I've hidden the xmassy candle and flowers with some small roses, voila you have a year round stamp! Looks a bit lke a bridesmaid to me, what ya think?

I love love love this image! Its a new one by Jasmine Becket-Griffith called Making a Wish. She's coloured with promarkers and pencil, the background is distress ink. Another easy one to colour so if you're a bit wary try this one :)

This one is a digi called NOON by Sara Burrier. I've enlarged and cropped and the original image is actually a little blonde girl but I kept seeing this stamp as a little afro-caribbean girl and think she looks lovely in dark tones. She's finished with a spray of iridescent gold glimmer mist

This is also NOON done another way. I've added a swing and a tree and coloured mainly with pencils, promarkers for the skin and painted the wings with an iridescent blue which you can see when you turn the card into the lght (2nd pic)

Been playng with my letrajet again lol! This one is VIOLET FAIRY by Jasmine Becket-Griffith coloured with promarkers, the background is all promarker letrajet and masking.

This is the new Flapper2 Melody, such a glam puss! I added some tiny detal to her bracelet with sakura stardust pens using clear and red, I love the lemon shortbread range, theres a few new ones there too, see them here.



Another gorgeous digi from Hannah Lynn, this one is FOREVER ROSE. I kept thinkng of the rose from Beauty and the beast for this. I added a pale blue to her hand for some glow. I think this is the first time I've ever done one of Hannahs with brown hair!

Last but not least, this is SHOPPING MELODY, she's a girl who knows what she wants! I coloured with promarkers then added a darker band with pencil (I use derwent coloursoft and Faber-Castell polychromos) Then I've used a white gel pen to add spots to match the DP's

Thats all from me for now! Just gong to have a play with petal melody as I've been itching to have a go at her!

Noon

Good afternoon folks i hope your weekend is going well, its a beautiful sunny day here in Essex i hope the sun is shinning for you too.



Right onto business i'm here to show you a card i've made using one of the gorgeous digi image that are now available exclusively at Crafts and Me this one is Noon and its designed by Sara Burrier and i just love all of the new ones, i've decoupaged this one mainly because the ink ran when i glittered her wings so i printed it out again and used a glue pen instead of stickles, the butterfly punch is also available from Crafts and Me.
Don't forget our challenge over at Craft and Me challenge blog HERE and the theme is torn paper, and also Teresa is having a DT call you can read more about it HERE .

Well i think that's me done for now enjoy the rest of your weekend what ever your doing.

luv gina xx
