Stampman Challenge - Three Colours

This time, the challenge at the Stampman is to use only three colours. Here is my DT offering, using distress inks in pink, blue and purple, just to be different from crimble colours!!! I masked the Judikins stamp stamp so I could put images inside... then smooched round the edges and sprayed with water to make texture... why not join as Jill always has fantastic prizes, and my fellow DT members have done some great pieces for inspiration...
Thanks for looking

Satisfying Success at the Christmas Fayre!!

 I have been a;tering dominos this week and really enjoying the difference when you only have a small space to work in... a bit like when I was introduced to ATCs or Inchies, Twinchies and so on... Above I covered it with friendly plastic and embedded wire into it. My cleaner has bought this set for her sister's Christmas present, how about that!!!??

 This one used a beautiful little floral stamp and I added the hanzi Chinese characters. I coloured it with promarkers, srtung it on black cord and wrapped my own findings wit copper wire. Really enjoyed doing this one.
This purply one uses a fab freebie stamp from PaperArtsy plus a music section from a different stamp... I coloured the background with sailboat blue and purple alcohol inks and also altered the colour of the bead to match...

So that's what I have been up to as well as selling some of my stuff... well I sold eight pieces yesterday, some key/handbag charms and some earring and necklace sets!!! I was SO chuffed. I was in a funny room with bric-a-brac, kids' toys and a bouncy castle, but lots of people mentioned how pretty the pieces were and I was really happy with my sales... I also met a few really nice people, so it was a very satisfyling success...
