Promise I Will Stop

Sorry folks but there are more of those Chandelier cards - think there will be enough samples now.  These are the others from the "My Cute Stamps" plate in readiness for Tracy at Oyster Stamps.  I decided I needed to play around with some of the other stamps and this is what I did:


I needed to use the "bow" stamp and tried to get it in a line to create a border.  As this is only a small square card I could only stamp part of the chandelier on but, to be honest, I rather like it like that.  All of these stamps are on the plate which you can see if you follow the link to Oyster Stamps above.


This one is simply using the butterfly stamp, again on the plate, and I made a little line of dashes leading up to them with a black pen, used one of my own sayings and then punched out a flower and attached that with a button centre.


The final one is actually black and cream although it looks more like white on here.  This is using one of the small stamps on the plate, repeated over and over to make a border.  It was surprising how easy it was to place this stamp in the repeating pattern - helped no doubt because they are clear stamps.  I rather like the look of this one.  The sentiment in the centre is, again, one of my own and I used a Spellbinders label to stamp it on.  Then I cut another one with black core paper, put it through a folder and lightly sanded it.

Hope these give people an idea of how most of the stamps on the plate can be used.  Phew!  Ready now for Harrogate.
