busy busy

I have recently discovered crafty indivduals, and i am in stamp heaven! i love their designs!!! this one is called i think i am alone now, and i didnt think nothing more of the words until last night in bed, it might seem a little "off" but it was not my intention. Wow have had time to craft away to my hearts content i love weeks like this!, the weather is cooler today which pleases me somewhat!so heres my plays!
so i got a butterfly stamp, another one! i didnt think i liked butterflies but the more i use them the more i feel quite drawn to the images, think i am a little addicted!
following on with those alcohol inks, which i think give me a headache when i use them, but i used them on vellum, i am quite impressed with how they look on vellum so got carried away with that too!this one i stamped the image on and used utee over the top of it, then i added the wings on again with paper, and then again with acetate, i am pleased with this one!


I know i worry too much, but i was browsing some galleries which inspire me and realised i have loads of stamps others have, but that i have used them in the same colour combos or i have used the same layout or something! but i just wanted to say anything i see and i try i always note who i got the idea from and mention them, this copyright thing, as much as i think its right it does play on my mind, off me box now!

I DARE YOU

this slide mailer is for pbird, i posted it a few days ago so hopefully it is safe to uload it now! i am pleased with this one, and i love this stamp!!!!!!!!!
I am trying to remember what i did!, i sliced open the mailer and covered the whole lot in alcohol inks. i decided on using just the girl and butterflies from the stamp, and to make like a story up, so the front is once upon a time, i stamped the girl on to memory glass and turned her the wrong way, that was planned! lol, i covered the front in utee and stamped into it with some diamond backgroun, i used the dynmo to do the words, the butterfly i stamped onto some cardstock, and added a gem, the tassel i added as in the effect of a bookmark, i hope that all follows.so to carry the story through i had to think of something quite small and to relate to the image, so i went with "once upon a time, lived a little girl called paula, she gre up to be, a talented artist" short and sweet i thought, and true as paulas work is amazing! i stamped the girl on to cardstock cut around her and positioned the words around her, i again stamped the background with the diamond image. I used mesh and stuck the words weaving in it, i used some gems and i stuck memory glass over the top of this.I knew i wanted to use fp somewhere on this, but thought i would ruin what i have done, so i saved it for the back!, i love this mesh in fp idea, which i saw from sian, and thought that it would fit well. so thats my story! lol, just hope paula likes it as much as i do!
