WOYWW 370

Welcome to another WOYWW - I need to apologise for not making it to many desks last week, after the thrill of my day at Wimbledon for the tennis (pics here) - sorry about that, I never seemed to catch up with myself!!
In case you don't have time to look at them all (and I took loads!) here's just one to whet your appetite. (for those of you who don't know me I'm in the middle, my boss who treats us is on the left in the hat.)

You want to see tennis? ok then here's another

A day or so after the trip to the tennis, I received some stamps I'd treated myself to for my birthday
they've not made it off the desk yet, and they sadly haven't met ink yet!  I do love Stampotique though.

I will do my best to get round more of your desks this week, although I am still "busy" with the tennis and football which are both coming to a climax (I really want split screen tv to be able to watch two things at once!!)

anyhow, the link for the desks is here, at Jan's..

TIO #185 - Pink and hearts

Welcome back to the DragonsDream for another fortnightly challenge.  Thank you for your orange entries, we enjoyed seeing them.

This time, it's the choice of our newest team member, Catherine, who's chosen Pink and hearts - for a just after Valentine tag.  Now, amongst my friends, I have some who love pink -  and quite a few more who hate it!!  however, I like a nice strong pink  and that's what I've used.

 Bougainvillea, one of the Limited Edition Frescos from Lin Brown forPaperartsy. Isn't it gorgeous?  Painted the size 10 tag, and stamped Daniels Hearts by Stampotique
 then took a Stencil Girl stencil (it has 4 or 5 different heart shapes and styles on it) and added Prima Light Paste by Finnabair, through the hearts - then, added another single one, at the top.

Waited (im)patiently for the paste to dry - this is where it's wet, very bright white..the nature of this paste is to pick up the colour you're using, or it comes into contact with, so as it dries, it gradually looks pinker.

I do love this heart stamp and never seem to use it often, it makes for great backgrounds

Added a piece of pink ribbon (it only looks red due to the lousy light when I was taking the photos) and some white fibre
and finally the sentiment from one of Darcy's stamp plates for Paperartsy.
We'd love to see you embrace your pink side, stamp us up a tag and join in! Don't forget to use at least one real stamp, and a tag.
