A pretty stressy job (thankfully long gone) ill health (thyroid killed my motivation) losing Poppy, and the pandemic put paid to a lot of my creativity let alone the want to blog.</p><p>Twice weekly video chats with some of the playday ladies has not just kept me sane but being in the playroom (which is reasonably tidy thanks to the length of the calls) and with a new pc has reawakened my love of card making, lavinia stamps and playing with inks. None of these are particularly original, most are inspired by youtube vids but it's got me making again, designing on scal again and it's sure as heck got me buying stash again. Just some of the cards made in the last couple of months, shout if details are needed on any and if I can remember what I used I will say. Usually it's distress, altenew, SU and the Ton inks.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhW86irapsF7kKwPri9BFiCHNx0SO1o4Q0YDnKYH6q6FFP4u5fKswdPFO_zig_GDquyzV1bdg4Yc-sZ3rpMFFUCnRt7abgLN1afdlt5mz16aam3Hg1IOgYIbZ7WAjWXL0FpseNf9Uq6MauEsnGQlg7B5PwIL7O_ZmigP54HVeluM47pxpQqQj4pzDOV-A/s2876/IMG_2807.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

<br />
This was about 10 mins worth of blending 8 different yellow, red & orange copics. Not sure where it's going so it's been put in my waiting for inspiration box. Altenew Persian Motifs on colotech cardstock.<br />

I have discovered that tilda & scrapbook stylee cards arent doing it for me anymore, so gumtree & ebay here I come. Sad to see them go as it's that that got me liking stamping rather than thinking of it as a sometimes necessary evil but I think I need the room & could do with more floral stamps.<br />
<br />
Forever friends striped background paper, nesties, SU punch, tumbled glass (and a nearly invisible wave stamp which I havent used for 20 years), bermuda bay SU cardstock <br />

Here's the finished card for the flowers I coloured yesterday with polychromos.<br />
<br />
All SU card although the confetti card that it's coloured on is no longer available, have to admit it was absolutely hideous to fussy cut with a blade so maybe that's a good thing. Embossed with silver, glamour dust added. Sentiment is a mix of Happy from Altenews painted poppy set and a retired SU one, embossed on vellum and there's a tiny diecut vellum butterfly which I tipped the edges of it's wings with more glamour dust.<br />

<br />The flowers were coloured white, yellow, green, 2 blues then blended together with zest it before adding sharp strokes of the 2 blues to add detail. There is also chrome yellow underneath the dots of glamour dust on the fronds it shows on the close up bit is too subtle (unless it's my eyesight) to see irl.<br />

I wasn't going to post these but I know what I'm like with challenges and if I skip one day I''ll skip loads.<br />
<br />
Today was Playday in Bristol and the challenge this month was to take something that you either don't get on with or don't know why you bought it. Turns out I was the only one that actually did that, the other 18 ladies all brought colouring in stash!!<br />
<br />
My don't get on with (I ditched the peeloffs and other sucker buys a long time ago) is my polychromos... 120 of em. If I'm honest I never really got on with them from the start because they arent quick and I never found torchons I liked. Didn't help I started collecting copics either at the same time or pretty soon after. So armed with a selection of cardstock, some doll stamps that I havent touched for a few years off to playday I trotted. <br />
<br />
I managed a whole 3 images and a galaxy background, woohoo. I will post proper pics of them all tomorrow as there's still a bit more to do to them. 1 Tilda & 1 penny black flowers. Think I'll use the proper camera tomorrow as the ipad really hated these.<br />

<br />
Staying with floral & watercolour, this time it's an Altenew rose, coloured with a single palette mix of cobalt blue & geranium red zig clean color pens on Langton watercolour paper with no drying or blending between layers as I was trying to recreate more of a faux 4 layered stamp effect. The leaves were a mix of greens.<br />

<br />
Not sure why this one has photoed so badly other than maybe because it's really overcast here today and I was using the ipad instead of a camera. The shadow on the left was cast by me, there is a green grey painted shadow around the poppies but it's nowhere near as dark.<br />

This is todays card, sweet pea stamp from Altenews Peony Bouquet set which I stamped on Langton watercolour paper with smokey grey versafine then watercoloured with zigs.<br />
<br />
I'm not convinced by the grey versafine, it's actually taking on the colour from the zigs which although was handing in some places it made it hard to blend out when I didn't want a harsh line.Playing with paperhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15151233901530014701noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5873834469704178859.post-87504085038452255952016-07-05T12:10:00.001+01:002016-07-05T12:11:15.308+01:00#thedailymarker30day day 1The lovely Kathy from thedailymarker.com has just started her <a href="http://www.thedailymarker.com/2016/07/day-1-coloring-book-card/" target="_blank">30 day colouring challenge.</a> The idea is to spend as little as 5 or 10 minutes or as much as you'd like colouring in every day.<br />
<br />
I really do need to get my copics back out but I've fancied trying a no lines watercolour technique for ages but my colouring is still so bad I chickened out and went with a nearly no lines by using a soft brown di rather than antique linen with this one.<br />
<br />
Hero Arts delicate blossom stamp on Langton Hot Pressed watercolour paper. Orange, geranium red and red clean color pens and layered gradually using a nos3 round brush.<br />
<br />
I'm very tempted to add in some detail using polychromos but this is the only impression I have of the stamp as it arrived in 2 pieces and there's no more stock available :( I did put the pieces together in the hope that it would be workable but there's a very small mismatch in the stems. <br />

<br />
Well Kay & Kelly nearly had wet knickers from laughing when I admitted to buying one at the Plymouth Sincerely Yours show a month or so ago. Even Tracey at Oysterstamps looked at me cockled when I handed over the cash as I'd told her that I wasn't going to get one (and why) when she first told me they were going to be stocking them and I'd repeated it on many occasions. So why did I buy it?? I'd bought one stamp at the craft show before that was a total and utter ******* (insert the worst swear words imaginable here) to ink. Versafine, archival, pigment you name it NOTHING would come close to even close to half way decent coverage and that was before stamping it, I tried the stamp press, inking with a brayer, stamping upside down (paper on top stamp) stamping mats, funky foam, more or less every trick I could think of from 20 years of stamping. So the thought was get a misti and a few duplicate impressions with a brand new sopping wringing juicy versafine. 4 impressions later it was just as cr*p an impression as always, albeit perfectly lined up rather than a few halos from not quite being square on with 2nd & 3rd impressions. I nearly threw the misti, complete with stupid bloody stamp still attached, through the window. Notamuseddotcom as we seem to say these days. Anyways I took misti (with stamp to friends a few days later to show her how bad it was) and the bloody thing stamped first time with a perfect image, with misti and with a bogstandard normal block. Turns out that being a dirty stamper (I don't clean my stamps unless I have to) worked and one *** stamp was now stamping perfectly.. even with distress ink which usually hates clear stamps let alone solid image clear stamps. Anyways back to the review (and of diy versions) as I got a bit sidetracked on why I bought one.<br />
<br />
***********************************************<br />
<br />
This is an absolutely first class tool that really does do what it says on the tin, but, there are some againsts as well as the obvious fors.<br />
<br />
<b>Fors:</b><br />
<br />
Perfect for people who can't hold or put enough pressure on a block.<br />
Doesnt matter if you don't ink the stamp properly or dont press the stamp down all over to get a complete impression because closing the lid again will cover up all mistakes.<br />
No more catching the ink on the edge of the stamp cushion and getting unintended lines. The misti has exactly the right depth and because you can't accidentally wobble the stamp from side to side there's no accidental smudge, specially handy when you've got a super thin long stem on a flower or a huge stamp that needs lots of pressure.<br />
If you want to stamp a sentiment around the edge of a circle or corner there are templates which make this dead easy. Lots of guides and links on youtube.<br />
Lining up is easier because you place the uninked stamp in place on your card and use the closing and opening action of the lid to get it in perfect place ready to ink up.<br />
Mirrored stamping is the best I've ever done with misti, Oysterstamps can get their hands on an a6 blank clear stamp which if you follow some of the youtube vids allows you to get a mirrored image which has the same strength of ink as the original. <br />
Batch making, using the corners it's possible to set your misti up so that your stamps are all in perfect position and you just move the card to different corners ready to ink up & close the lid.<br />
It's great for repeat pattern stamping.<br />
If your ink pad is drying or you want to get a deeper colour you can reink time after time to build up colour.<br />
The grid on the lid lets you get sentiment stamps perfectly straight.<br />
Perfect for stamping on glossy card/shrink plastic as you can't slip the image on it. Go very careful if using stazon though as Misti doesnt recommend harsh cleaners.<br />
<br />
<b>Againsts,</b> for me anyway,<br />
<br />
I'm a dirty stamper and having to either clean stamps before putting them into position or covering the card with a thin layer of acetate while position is not really for me. I find it a pita and have ruined a few things when I haven't cleaned/dried the stamps properly and I always get inky fingers when I use acetate as a shield. <br />
I'm not overly a fan of having to place the stamp on the card first, it's a bit of a flaff compared to hovering an inked stamp over the card then deciding where you want it to go and misti is definitely not the tool to do lots of random stamping over a page, all that cleaning repositioning, closing/opening then reinking is a bloomin nightmare compared to a quick dab back onto the inkpad and stamp.<br />
If you want to do a circle stamped sentiment direct on to a 6" square card you'll have to buy the 12" misti, the regular is far too small. 5" square is the largest size that works comfortably.<br />
I don't like using it with the really large inkpads, anything su size or above can be fiddly. The small inkcubes are a lot easier to use with it, however, after knocking over 2 dl boxes (ok I admit they were balanced precariously on the edge of my side desk) filled with ink cubes then having to find let alone work out which lids went with which of about 30 pads (su & hero arts pads don't say underneath so it's a good job I swatched them last week) you can imagine why I prefer to buy full size inkpads.<br />
It takes the ooh factor out of stamping and I have to admit I find using the tool makes stamping as boring as printing from the computer. It took me a lot of years, stamp & ink purchases to think of stamping as something more than a sometimes necessary evil and with a block I get a lot of excitement from taking the block away to see what it's stamped like. Fair enough 99 times out of 100 I've stamped perfectly but there's always a will it wont it moment that with misti turns into a so what it doesnt matter I can reink it. For me that loses some of the handcraftedness and I might just as well print from the computer, something I've never taken satisfaction from either as there's no challenge to using a printer even if I have made the graphic on the pc myself.<br />
<br />
If I were to nitpick there are probably a few more I could come up with but I don't want to sound like too much of a whinger lol. <br />
<br />
<b>Conclusion</b>, a definite must have for those who have dexterity issues or batch make. Worth it for those who struggle to stamp normally but it's still worth persevering with normal blocks as there are times Misti is as useless as an ashtray on a motorbike. For any other reasons really think hard about what you want it to do for you and what you expect from it then think is it going to do it, what size do you need and can you afford the cost. Me, I'm glad I have it as I've just swatched the inks that I keep on my desk (about 200 or so) and for that it was a blessing. Is it going to replace my blocks? Not a chance and will only be used for maybe 1 in 10 stamped cards at most but for those 1s I'll probably be glad I had it.<br />
<br />
******************************************************************** <br />
<br />
For those thinking that £50 was a lot to spend for maybe only 1 in 10 cards and you've seen lots of different home made versions doing the rounds on youtube, blogs & facebook groups.. I've seen them too and I've actually made 2 of my own but just remember I'm as tight as the proverbial if I think something is gimmicky and there is a perfectly acceptable substitute... would I really have spent £50 on one, specially when I'm hankering after adding mft, hero arts and lawn fawn inks to my collection.. £50 would be a good chunk towards one of the sets... <br />
<br />
Cd/dvd cases with an array of different sarnies of magnetic sheet, shims, funky foam and magnet strips are hugely limiting in the size of the card you can stamp on. They arent necessarily going to give you perfect 2nd impressions either because there is wiggle room in the fold over not hinged cases. I made mine up pretty much as soon as the Misti craze hit the groups and someone posted it as an idea. All in all it was a total waste of time & a few quid in magnetic sheets, magnets (that are useless compared to misti ones) and layers of foam and all to stamp images like tilda because it wasn't big enough to do a whole card! I didn't bother going to the expense that you'd need to for gridded acetate if you want to use it to line up sentiments. Mine went in the bin a couple of months later as only used it once and
thought it was a pita and wasn't all that and a bucket of chips iykwim.<br />
<br />
Much better than a cd case is the large hinged photo frame from a certain Swedish store. Costs a few quid but it's big enough to fit an 8*8 piece so much better to start with but, and there are quite a few buts with this one, including the biggest which I shall leave to last.<br />

The magnets on the side have to be removed otherwise you're forever fighting to get it open again.<br />
The perspex is too thin and you'll be breaking it on a regular basis. I would recommend getting poly carbonate/perspex sheets cut to order from ebay, however those peg type thingies that you have to bend over the "glass" on the lid are one of the worse pitas I've come across. Best to remove them and use a combination of superglue & hot glue to weld the perspex/glass into place. Sticky tape wont do it, not even the redline tape.<br />
You're going to need thin funky foam to use with um red rubber and a stronger magnetic sheet than the cheapie ones you bought at the last show. It has to be strong to attract the magnets, oh and the 2 normal well priced advertised as strong magnets are in actual fact useless and wouldn't hold even copy paper. Misti magnets are strong enough to jump 6" or so to grab on to an unsuspecting bracelet/watch and that's because they have to be strong to keep the card in place.<br />
You've gone to the expense of strong magnetic sheets & magnets, you've replaced the glass and spent ages getting it glued into place, you've worked out what shims & foam is needed to stamp your unmounted red rubber or clear polymer stamps, you've even spend some dosh on gridded acetate because you were getting in a pickly lining up sentiments and all is working well for you then you decide that you want to use that really awkward cushion mounted stamp that you've never got on with because you keep catching ink on it's edge... here's the big but coming... the photo frame isn't as deep as it needs to be and that caught ink that you used to stamp every time is going to stamp every time with the photo frame as well. Almost all of my problematic stamps are cushion mounted and as much as I'd like to ditch the cushioning they do actually need it even when stamping on to cushion.<br />
<br />
Yes, I've also got the photo frame version and even though it's large enough to pattern build easier it's going to be converted into an altered project not used to stamp with. Just too much hassle and when I'd use it is to avoid a problem and it's not really avoiding them all the time.<br />
<br />
If money is a serious problem and you can't save the money/ask for Misti as a christmas/bday pressie then it's worth thinking about a diy version but please don't think that it compares to the Misti because unless you've gone to quite a hefty cost to custom build from scratch to the exact depth and copied it (you've basically broken patent laws when you copy the idea) the diy ones really are not a patch on using the real thing. It's a bit like buying a knock off handbag, it looks good initially but give it a few jaunts around the block and you'll start to notice the hems are fraying, there's holes in the lining, the zip has busted, the metalwork has tarnished and a few of the gems are missing.. actually it's fooling no one and goes in the bin lesson learned.<br />

A very rough experiment with altenew stamps & misti. It doesnt show it but this is a dual layer card and there's an aperature cut around the inside of the leaves. I'm going to take off the flowers and change them for some others.<br />

Seriously seriously gutted last week. I ordered this Hero Arts stamp after coveting it for ages only to discover that the one I was sent was in 2 pieces. I did stamp to see if it would be ok but had to add in some fine black lines to hide the join. One stamp set sent back and they can't replace it as oos :o(<br />

One of our best friends turned 60 this week and he once had Ade moving around so that his shadow would shield Toms drink from the Caribbean sun... so when I saw a deckchair with umbrella drink holder it had to be done, then I had a problem wrapping it & the glasses & voddie. Somehow a box became decking and I had the whole thing wrapped in cellophane at the florists with pretty blue dangly bows. Tom wasn't impressed someone bought him flowers for his bday, until he looked at it with sober eyes the next day lol. Stamp onthe card is an old Tilda champagne glass. The rude sentiment is one I got a friend to arrange to be made for me. It cause an awful lot of mirth when Tom finally revealed it.<br />

You can't get much more simple than this one.. a single stamp from Lavinia Stamps, on a white panel of card that's had lilac, pistachio & raspberry distress ink blended across. Seed heads painted with blue & purple brusho.

This is my project from the day. Lots of prima mediums on a canvas board, shells, sprays, micas & micro beads. Pic is from about 6 years ago of me & hubby on holiday in Tunisia, one of the shells I used came from that holiday, the others are ones I've picked up on beaches in the uk.<br />

This months project is inspired by a pin I found which led me to <a href="http://shabbychicinspired.blogspot.co.uk/2011/09/match-box-cabinet.html" target="_blank">shabbychicinspired blog</a> where she made a fab matchbox cabinet using a cigar box and blank matchboxes. I had neither and didn't really want to spend the money on buying them so a fair bit of cutting then scoring with hougie, lots of dst, glue & gummed tape 12 sheets of card became a 6 * 6 column & row block of matchboxes. 1 sheet of a3 mountboard became the cigar box and 2 sheets of cream card got stamped on & cut out, 2 sheets of black card got diecut, trimmed & shaped and 43 beads got glued on. The girls are quaking in their boots at the thought of this one and I've got a feeling only 1 or 2 are going to be brave enough to attempt it ;o)Playing with paperhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15151233901530014701noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5873834469704178859.post-9188098542361827492015-06-15T19:51:00.000+01:002015-06-15T19:51:00.155+01:00scheduled cards<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

One day I'll go on a photography course as the colours of these 2 is nothing like the real life colours. The background on this one is a lot softer but brighter irl & you can see more depth to the petals.<br />
<br />
This one is using a rubbernecker poppy stamp, stamped in abandoned coral distress ink onto a lemon & scarlet brusho background. I then use copics in r24, 27, 29 & yr00 & 02 to add some depth. Masked then splattered with persimmon, festive berries & more coral distress ink.<br />

This one is deep purple & bright turquoise in real life.<br />
<br />
Dusty Concord & mermaid lagoon distress ink applied with ink dusters over postit note masks. Once ready I misted the dusters with water and dragged across to create some movement in the water. I also dipped a clean inkduster into some white acrylic mixed with pearlescent tinting medium and flicked against the card to create white wave edges. <br />

Never a good idea to start crafting late at night when I had been on my way to bed and frames should really be mapped out first but.. it was late and I couldn't be bothered to mess about with rulers & pencils so just took a piece of 5 1/2" square white card, a hydrangea multi coloured ink pad and went by eye. No measuring, no checking that it would fit just straight in plonk! Thankfully my eye might have been tired but for once it had the spacing right as all I had to do was trim 1mm away from one edge. The square isnt square, it's a bit on the squint but chances are even if I'd messed about with rulers & set square it still would have been lol. Once finished I added the sentiment in the middle and went around adding teeny drops of liquid glass & glamour dust. irl the light is catching the glamour dust and the whole card sparkles. I am seriously considering redoing the sentiment on a plain white square of card, will see what it looks like when Grandson has been, destroyed and gone ;o)<br />
