Hi Everyone,
I missed my own blogging birthday! lol That’s a bit funny. Turns out that I have been online for one year as at the 21st April. I cannot believe I missed it.
In celebration I have a little giveaway. Woohoo! I picked up a couple of stamp sets from KaiserCraft today and I would like to send them to someone to celebrate. In hindsight, I should have picked up a few more as I have been blessed to make some lovely friends though this little blog of mine. To win, please comment on this post. I will pick a winner (using a random number generator) on Saturday 4th May (AEST). Giveaway is open to international readers.
Here’s the prize….
First Birthday Giveaway
I’ve done a little creating lately. Mostly it has consisted of stamping and colouring and stamping and colouring some more. I’ve been enjoying the process and haven’t really finished anything. Sometimes I just like to colour.
I did pick up a couple of decoupage card kits from Spotlight during the week and passed a few pleasant hours putting them together. I ended up with 7 cards (4 different designs). They are super cute and they made me think – there is no reason why I couldn’t apply the same idea to my own stamping. I’m no stranger to popping up the odd embellishment or layer so why not pick out a feature of the stamp and do the same? Something to think about.
First up…
Movie Queen
Materials Used: Finmark Decoupage Card Kit (Finmark); Cardstock – Various.

This card was a bit different. It provided the backs of the images. Love this idea! A few stamp companies offer stamps like this too. Very fun! Here’s the inside…

Happy Stamping!

REALLY REALLY late to your anniversary party! I am soooooo sorry. I’ve pretty much ignored mine, and it’s coming up again around Mother’s day….Will probably ignore it once more! But I’m glad you’re not ignoring yours, and am thrilled that we’ve made a connection across thousands of miles. Thank heavens the internet was invented!!! It’s always a pleasure and a treat to stop by your blog and see what you’ve made. Whenever you pop up on my side bar, I know there’s something good in store. You, my dear friend, are one talented artist, and I’m blessed to know you. Don’t include me in your drawing, as the postage is way too much. Just accept my best wishes and heartiest congratulations on your anniversary. xoxo
I was late to my own party too, Bev. It’s okay. 🙂 Will have to try and remember to celebrate yours. 🙂 Thank you for your oh so kind words. I feel very blessed to have met you too. You are so incredible generous and have a huge heart. I’m including you in the drawing anyway. haha 🙂 hugs!!
Happy Blog-a-versary Kylie! What a great achievement.
Like C, I always look forward to your creations. Not only are they gorgeous to look at, but they always inspire me to make something fun. And thank you for your incredible generosity with the giveaway. It’s very sweet of you to offer something to friends.
I’m really digging those cards. I bought several of the Art Impressions stamp sets because I think they’re absolutely hilarious and I can’t wait to make fun stuff with them. I haven’t thought about getting the card toppers, but seeing you use them is making me change my mind. I think I will pick up some card toppers, after all.
Thanks for sharing! 🙂
Thank you so much, Elle! It has been a real delight getting to know you and see all of your wonderful creations. Love Art Impressions – they have some fantastic stamps. I have a few in the collection and would happily add more. haha Thank you again! You are so very kind! hugs!!
Happy Anniversary!!
Thanks, Amber! 🙂
