Cards From A Follower!



These two adorable cards were made by one of the blog followers, Beckie Robinson.  Beckie purchased the monkey business and the jungle safari stamp sets recently and has sent me through these lovely cards to showcase her talents! How cute is that hippo with the flower behind his ear!  I just love to see what everyone does with the Particraft stamp designs.  It is so much fun to be able to look at everyone else's ideas for a change! 

Becki's cards, however, have made me realise that I have to get back to work myself on some jungle cards as I have been asked back to Create and Craft to do another jungle themed show.  The show is scheduled for January 17th at 9am.  I know, I know, it's a Sunday morning and that is an awful hour to be up, coherent and crafting all in one fell swoop!  Having already done one jungle show, I am hoping to have some new card samples to show as well as some new demo ideas to showcase.  The jungle stamps are some of my favourites to play with, but they aren't exactly technique-orientated type stamps.  Hopefully, I can showcase some ideas for cards and layouts that you might not have seen or done before.  These stamps do work wonderfully for stairstep cards and trishutter type cards and there are samples of those on my blog from past posts in November if you want to have a look.  There are also a number of other jungle themed cards as well mixed in the November posts.

If any other followers have made cards using any of the Particraft stamp designs, please,  please email them along to me as I would love to see everyone's creative designs!
Happy Crafting, Sue x

Early Sunday morning is a great time for me to be able to take my time watching C&C while munching my toast and drinking copious amounts of frothy coffee ;-)
Lovely cards Beckie

I like these cards a lot))))
Sorry I have never had any of the Particraft stamp designs at me(((( I wish I had at least one to make the same nice cards, but any stamps are never for sale in Russian shops. There is never the craft shop where I live at (((

Thanks Larisa and Gill. Glad you like them. They are too much fun to play with.

Sunday mornings are great to watch craft shows in bed! I'll be watching as I am not too good at children's cards and these stamps look ideal.

The jungle stamp is on my ever growing wish list! My niece's love all animals and their favourite are alligators/crocodiles! I plan on using the stamps to make some wall art for their bedrooms. I look forward to new designs in 2010.

Love the cards and the stamps - I managed to get all three sets but I haven't had time to play as much as I would like.
