The weeks keep on rising, so quickly! week 670 of this fabulous desk hop run by Julia at the Stamping Ground - come join us!
For the first time in a while, I have new goodies to share - Last week Paperartsy had some more new releases and whilst the first couple of designers offerings weren't really my style,
I adored the mini stamps that originally started in their Ink and theDog range and these latest designs, plus small stencils, shouted at meand promptly jumped into my basket, landing on the doormat on Tuesday
I pulled out my A5 sized journal at the weekend, not really knowing what to do - but the page on the left was already started, I'd played with the big stencil, and just doodled some outlines to it and added a bit of a stencilled background

the page on the right, the pink paint was a mop up from something or other - so long ago I have no idea what and I stencilled some flowers (using Distress Oxide inks) on top, intending to come back and add to it ...
maybe next week!
it's been a long time since I worked in this journal, rather than the larger multi surfaced Dina Wakley journals and it was quite fun.
Just time to add the links to last weekend's trip to Kew, it was cold, such a contrast to the warmth of the previous week but still sunny (mostly)
catch the blossom here

They never stop producing such wonderful new stamps and stencils even though they have been at it for so long. I must try and be more like you with the journals and just get them out and do something especially when I just keep looking at the blank page Lol! Have a lovely creative woyww. Hugs, Angela x14x
Wow, what a haul! I am sure you have the largest collection of PPA stamps in the world.

Those new releases are fabulous aren't Helen?! I love the new printed tissue too, but haven't succumbed yet. Your page looks great.

Wow, I love every single item that landed on your doorstep! the stamps are yummy, the stencils just ask for someone to play with them! I look forward to seeing what you do with them! Your flowers in your journal are lovely, I'm experimenting with using stamps and acrylic paints together, along with stenciling. The spring flowers bring hope to me that soon we will be seeing some here as well. Have a great week, Lindart #22
Cool stamps and stencils! I'm finally getting around the desks after such a busy week it made my head spin and it has barely slowed! Love the tree and flowers! Have a great weekend!
