Stampotique Challenge - Ornaments

Todays challenge over at Stampotique Designers Challenge has been set by the very talented Maria who has chosen Ornaments.  Here is what Maria has to say about her challenge

'' Christmas is right around the corner. Are you ready for Santa? Create an ornament for your Christmas tree, the front door or for a special present. How do you like Christmas this year? Traditional or modern? Have fun creating and Happy Holidays.''

 
I decided to make a hanging ornament using a Cherry Lynn heart die.  I started off by sponging various distress inks over some white card, then stamping some Stampotique text stamps randomly over the card :- Shoot for the moon (7114) and World all her own (3035)  Splattered some black ink then inked over a stencil.  Then I cut out 5 hearts, folded them down the middle and glued them together.  I then stamped Large Tree Topper Angel (6157) on the same card, cut her out and attached her to the ornament with ribbon.  And here it is...

Been a little quiet on the blog just recently but thats because in my spare time I've been practising drawing and colouring Suzi Blu dolls  :O)  I've also been trying out beeswax with a quilting iron.  So here is one of my dolls to show you - still got some way to go yet with the colouring but its getting there (kinda)

Stampotique Challenge - Sentiment

Its time again to join in with this weeks challenge over at Stampotique - this time the very talented Gez has chosen the theme SENTIMENT.  Here is what Gez has to say about her challenge:-

I love to add sentiments to my artwork whether I am cardmaking or art journaling. To me a simple sentiment can say it all. Stampotique Originals have a lovely selection of sentiments to suit all occasions and tastes and as you would expect from Stampotique some out of the norm sentiments too!  So, it's time to get creative and share your favourite sentiments with us.
Have fun!
 
Here is my creation for the theme - a little plaque using TH Baroque Die, Sizzix Wings, Cuttlebug embossing folder, rubon wax, some flowers from my stash and the Stampotique sentiment World all her own (3035)
