Here is another submission for Gingersnap Challenges. I’ve stuck to my favourite lady from the roaring twenties plate by The Artistic Stamper to make this birthday card which has a romantic feel yet again!

It’s Gingersnap challenge time again and this week’s Romance theme is colour ‘anything but pink and red’.

The ‘Roaring Twenties’ certainly conjour up romance and The Artistic Stamper’s ‘flappers’ combined with a few hearts and a fabulous sequin waste background stamp give these ATCs a romantic feel.

Do check out the wonderful Gingersnap site – there is loads of brilliant inspiration and information.

The challenge this week is Lace and/or Fibres. This is my entry – a card made using the gorgeous new stamps from The Artistic Stamper. 

This is my take on the latest Gingersnap Creations challenge which is, of course, ROMANCE

This little ‘chocolate treat bag’ is made using fabulous new stamps from The Artistic Stamper. They are sponsering Gingersnap this month so hop on over and take a look at the Gingersnap blog for some gorgeous projects using these great stamps. The template for this treat bag can be found at https://www.splitcoaststampers.com/resources/tutorials/treatbagcover.

Once again I have used my favourite flower stamps from The Artistic Stamper to make this ‘quick’ card. The stamps are from The ‘flower power‘ sheet. Suitable for most occasions the flowers are simply stamped and embossed onto patterned paper, cut out and mounted.

I love making (and swapping ATCs). Here are a couple I completed recently. The Stamps are from The Artistic Stamper Stitchels range. Artistic Stamper have a free P & P offer on at the moment! Backgrounds are made from Distress Inks.

A couple of completed items. The first is a little art quilt made for a swap. The theme is alcohol ink and I have used metal coloured with the ink on the quilt. The background fabric is painted with Lumiere paint and stamped with Encore ink. Metal sheet is cuttlebugged. The cream square is cotton fabric and the text on it is stamped. The little heart is a chipboard piece covered with fabric that has been stitched and beaded.

The second piece is an ATC for our group swap. This is December’s and the theme was ‘Birds’.

All the stamps used in these pieces are from The Artistic Stamper except for the swirl under the bird which is Paperartsy
