Hot off the Press! Yummy Crafty Individuals!

I always get excited when a package arrives from Jean and Malcolm of Crafty Individuals!
These are a few cards made with some of the new stamps which are just beautiful. CI-302 is this gorgeous 'postcard' which I layered a few together and tied with string.

I added detail with a slide mount containing a CI image and a chippie heart, painted, overstamped with the CI-161 script stamp and the word, CI-156.

This one uses a gorgeous collage stamp, CI-301. simply coloured then a book plate turned lengthways to create a frame which I filled with Glassy accents and added embellishments into the holes rather than brads or eyelets.

Finally, well for now anyway, another 'Mans' card using plate CI-305.

I loved the way this stamp could be cut, layered etc, there is so much on it!

These are the 5 new stamps in detail........Yummy






My neice Abi is on her way round to make a valentine card, so gaotta dash,

Be back later,
