Sunday Stamper 211 Pockets.

I am attempting to try and tidy the craft room. Hubby says I should throw a grenade in and shut the door, now that's not very helpful is it? In the midst of this tidy-up I have lost/mislaid/thrownout/hoovered up the blank banners that I was using for my Sunday Stamper challenge, I  hope I find them again under all the heaps of stuff! So for this weeks challenge of pockets I have made a card.
Sunday stampers Pockets
In keeping with my messy everything else here is a messy card. I can only send it to a crafter who would understand! The backgrounds are made with Dylusion inks and a grand mess I made doing these, but oh so worth it as the colours are really bright. Then I used Studio 490 stamps for the pencils and discovered that the new limited distress inks go really well with the Dylusion colours. The pocket was off a small persons jeans that I picked up for a few pence in a car boot sale when I thought I would make a journal book (still might one day) and I messed it up nicely with some acrylic dabbers. The sentiment is stamped with a little alphabet set. Some of the mess on the card is made with Sir Tim's texture stamps. Back now to try and make sense of the heaps of stuff that are breeding in said craft room!

  11. Thankyou for leaving such a lovely comment on my blog Barb. It's taken me years to pluck up the courage to make this book - don't wait as long yourself! I love the work you do but am hopeless at stamping, though trying to improve. The pocket idea is great and such fun.
