Another SWALK sneak peek

I'm happy to share with you today another couple of SWALK sneak peeks.  I love the fact that these two cards are so different.  That's what I love about stamping, the versatility it gives you.  So first up I've gone totally minimalist, apart from the ribbon which I'm loving the ruched effect.  This card was inspired by challenges at:

Just Us Girls - black, cream and kraft

Tuesday Taggers - nursery rhymes, Little Polly Flinders

Sweet Stampin' Challenges - ribbons

Supplies used:

Stamp - SWALK with sympathy

Ink - black soot distress ink

Cardstock - white, kraft, black

Embossing folder - cuttlebug swiss dots

Ribbon - cream satin

To soften the image I just went over the stamped image with a nearly dry waterbrush.

This next card has a bit more colour in it and I have the gorgeous and immensely talented Glittery KT to thank for the colouring in of the stamped image.  Yet another reason I love going away with friends for the weekend!

This card was inspired the challenge at:

Quirky Crafts - sketch

One stitch at a time - embellish it - i chose gems

Supplies used:

Patterned paper - CD SWALK volume 2

Stamp - SWALK engaged

Copics

Thanks for popping by.  I hope you're loving this new range as much as I am.  It was also great to Sheena on TV this morning with her new range.  When I get 5 minutes I'll be having a play with her gorgeous new stamps.  In the meantime I have just one more quick card for you, with inspiration from:

Stamp something - Halloween
Chicken soup - recipe #16
Creative Inspirations - Halloween/Fall

A Spoonful of sugar - Halloween
A Passion for Papertrey - CASE challenge - I cased a card from the lovely Dawn McVey and I'm loving it so much I'm going to make a few in different colours this weekend.

And here's mine

Supplies used:

I must remember to buy deicer as it's a little frosty here this morning.  I'm glad I'm not going anywhere and instead will get writing a newsletter.
Have a good day.
