Hello.

Today I'm combining my Sweet Stampin'  and Whimsy  worlds in a never before seen (or probably to be repeated mash up!  Today's Sweet Stampin' challenge theme is Summer Fun and I think we can agree that wee Dude is having some fun in the summer! I've got 4 of these wooden houses from The Works and had the idea (in Spring) that I'd do some seasonal houses for my tiered tray displays.  This is the first one I've managed! Probably be Christmas before I get another done.

Sweet Stampin' Challenge

Hello.

 

Time for a new challenge Sweet Stampin' and this time our theme is Things With Wings. I was going to make this last week, had a great idea and then had lots of requests from folk for cards that I forgot about it and I've forgotten what my great idea was! However, a recent challenge at the Vera Lane Studio Facebook group came to my rescue.  The challenge was to make postage stamps for prompts that appeared every day in May.  I've finished the challenge but I'm not good at sharing my stuff and these wee guys haven't been seen yet and I think they probably deserve to get an airing (and yes, I think it probably was him.....)

Late Running Sweet Stampin' Challenge

Hello.

 

Apologies, I completely forgot I hadn't done this post! Last Saturday saw a  new challenge begin at Sweet Stampin' and this time the theme is Flowers.  Easy I thought.  Meh, not so much.  I'm not sure I really enjoy flowers!

This wee cutie came to my rescue though.

Hello.

 

Time for a new challenge Sweet Stampin' and this time our theme is Animals.  Easy you'd think? And maybe if I hadn't set myself so many conditions it might have been.  I cracked open a very old (and never before been used) stamp for this.
