Something New


Well it had to be Paris for my great friend Kaz's birthday!

This is my first attempt at working with Stampbord, and as such I'm linking it to Mixed Media Monday this week too. I had been putting off working with this for ages and now I find it actually quite addictive! Love these alcohol inks in the ginger, latte and gold tones together too.
I also altered this clipboard for her using lots of different stamps and collage.

The canvas has turned into a bit of a work in progress - she'll need to wait for that one!
Thanks for stopping by. x

Well that sweet girl Kaz is one lucky lady! Your first work with Stampbord is amazing! There is something so striking about the accenting that you can do with it. I can tell that you're hooked. The clipboard is divine too!
