So, today, Hels's guest theme setter for Sunday Stampers, Alfie-cat, has chosen "birds" for his theme. Hmm wonder why... Don't thinkyou'll find these two very tasty!
I decided to go for a canvas today instead of a tag, and took my inspiration from Lin's demo's at the recent Stevenage show, so thanks again, Lin for sparking off these ideas!
For the stamps. I used the Paperartsy Hotpick 1107 plate - Steampunk Peter and Paul, and some cogs and a text.
I stuck some old book pages on some white card and coloured it with blue/green/orange distress stains before stamping the images and cutting them out.
Really glad to hear that Hurricane Irene is downgraded to a tropical storm - hope our American friends are not too badly affected.
