Sneak Peek......

Morning all and what a wild morning it is.......not much ice cream being sold today. After Easter we sell ice cream and whilst we have had those lovely warm days before Easter I had lots of people coming into the shop to see when it was coming back.....well now its back the weather is cold .......typical.


Thank you for all your lovely comments with regards joining Crafty Individuals so much appreciated, so today I thought I'd show you a sneek peek of one of the new stamps that should be out real soon, you'll probably get fed up of me showing this image as I think its gorgeous. I have made a box frame for the image to sit in which I layered up. I first painted the box in Paper Artsy acrylic paints using Guacamole and Pansy and then used the Crackle stamp CI 116 for the top embossing with Tinsel gold, I then added strips of paper from the Sprintime book to the inside edges. I coloured the image wih Promarkers and Flexmarkers and added stickles. The paper for the flowers and the diecut swirls are from the same book, the dies are both by Memory Box, I popped little diamantes into the centre of the flowers for a smidge of extra bling.
