Geek Chic

I absolutely love Stamping Bella stamps and have soooo many of them. So I just had to treat myself to a few of the new Tiny Townies.This one is Sage Loves Science. I had the perfect set of stamps to use along with her from Bert and Gert's, called Science Club. I masked her and stamped the periodic table behind her. I also had a tiny little bottle and filled it with some orange Stickles.

Steampunk

A bit out of the usual for me but Gaynor at Craft World asked me if I would demo last weekend at their Papercraft Extravaganza using Flex/Promarkers and this is one of the stamps she chose. It's a really big stamp by Prima called "Emily" from their Bloom Girl collection. I had to use one of my Big Shot cutting plates as a stamp block she's that big! The card is A4 in size. It was also a bit of a challenge using the Flex/Promarkers as I usually use Copics.The techniques were no problem,I just didn't know the colour combinations. So a quick Google and a look on Pinterest helped me out.
