the Workbench

The Workbench is a (digi) stamp from Lili of the Valley. Mine is a digi, so I printed it on the Crafter's Companion Neenah Paper and colored it with Copic, Spectrum Noir and Spectrum Illustrator markers, then adhered it to the cardbase with double sided tape.
No sentiment as of yet, as I'm not sure if it will be a birthday or a Fathers day card.
I kept the colors to a minimum and manly I hope.

I'm entering it into the DIY challenge over at the Male Room Challenge.

Chocolater Easter Eggs treat box with bunny, with video

For the box you need a piece of card sized: 7"x 5"3/8
Score on the long side at: 1"5/8, 3"1/4.4"7/8 and 6"1/2
(making sure the thin line is at the bottom (rotate clockwise)
Score on the short side at: 1:5/8, 3: 1/4 and 4"7/8.
Reinforce all the score lines, cut away what is not needed and cut the fold lines at the bottom.

I use hot glue gun to glue it together,but you can use double sided tape if you prefer.
Decorate the little box to your liking and fill with treats. It willalso hold three tealights if you prefer and many other things I'm sure.
I've used a bit of ribbon to help it stay shut.That's only needed if your cardstock is thin and a bit flimsy.
But it looks nice also if it;s not needed :-)

Matching up stamps and dies- second chances

100th card of 2019

Yes 100 already and I made it for the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge:  miniature/tiny things.
And as the Wednesday Challenge is about cute things, I shall add it there too.

I think mice are tiny creatures, but I'm not sure if that's what they had in mind.
For my card I used the Stampendous Willowclimb stamp and I stamped it with My Favorite Things Extreme black ink.

The sentiment is from Craftin Desert Divas and I stamped that with Versafine Clair ink.

Colored the image with Derwent Inktense pencils. I've used hot pressed smooth watercolor paper and mounted the panel with foamtape to the cardbase.

Some Nuvo Shimmer pen on the cattails for a little sparkle.

Cutest sheep in the world: the blacknose sheep

for the Cute challenge over at Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge.
Showcasing Clearly Besotted. I have a few of their stamps,all cute but none were really speaking to  me ;-)

So I used a Marianne Design Stamp EC0175 and Stamped it with Simon Says Stamp hybrid black ink and colored it with Spectrum Noir markers, cut them out.
The background is Distress oxide.
the Spring grass is from Studio Light and the letters spell Spring in Dutch.
