Hobby Art DT samples Sept

Hello again from Sunny Plymouth....seem so difficult to believe that in 3 month Christmas will be here .....Not that I'm complaining mind you to see the sun and have the glorious indian summer we have had is very welcome ....long may it continue.



OK!OK!  Stop waffling woman and get on with the samples!

 This is a brand new set called a Coastal Walks as you know I live by the coast so anything seasidey! calls to me!

Country walk is the second set there are three complete scenes in this set I have just joined up two together and added a squiggle for the end hill to tie it all in  ......you could easy make this a spring or summer country walk by changing the colours xxx but as quick Christmas cards go this one took 15 mins from start to finish.....

Above is the third part of the Country walks stamps set .....

A Vintage card . Now you may or may not know I dont like doing Vintage ......but this was the result of a really stressful day and the end result I was pleased with. So it stayed! Again its a stamp and colour set  you dont have to do to much to it ....I had no ribbon to match this ,,,the red I have is too bright and too red if you know what I mean so I cut a thin piece of the card I was useing to matt and layer and used that .......I think it works x 

Father Christmas .....He is one of a two part set  that was the August Monthly Special  Father Christmas set .  When you stamp him he is sitting but ......I thought I wonder if the top half could poke out of a chimney.....so this was the end product. I Hope you like it . 

Rufus the reindeer  with all the different bits I just thought this was a quick way to showcase a lot of the stamps that come with this set I was going to hang them off his antler which is what the antlers where drawn for ....but I wanted something a little off beat a little out of the box  so a circle card with Circles ...nothing boxlike about that ! 

The Country Walks set again with a Peace on Earth greeting also by Hobby Art.  This cardstock should have been backed onto something ...but I did like how it turned out ...note for next time cut it out twice and matt and layer . 

The Last card you may have seen before 

Well thats all for now folks I have loads to blog so when Rory is at I grow next week all being well I will attempt to catch up ....Love him loads but he does take a lot of my time  ...Hope you like what I have done.
