Good morning everyone. Hope this finds you well.
I haven't had a great weekend as the cold, which had started to improve, triggered chest issues again but feeling better yesterday.
Busy doing some samples for Daisy's as they are on Hochanda next week........it keeps me off the streets. I've even done a bit of messy crafting with pastes and masks, whooda thought lol???
I have also succombed to the delights of a Press Too Impress. John has been extolling its virtues for weeks and I had managed to resist. However, after goofing up stamping a large stamp on a sample twice, I reached to my store stock shelf and took a Press Too Impress off it............it was either try that or pull my hair out.
Well, I am well and truly converted. Its brilliant and I only wish I'd listened to John earlier (don't tell him I said that). Its great for doing my dib dabbing on floral stamps.
Now, back to today's card. This is one of the samples from John's JND launch shows (told you I had done a few lol!!!).
Its kind of a take on triple stamping but double and undulating.............you know I have to be different.
Ingredients
Cream and black card
John Next Door Quattro Mask - Drops (used to emboss)
John Next Door Summer Flowers stamps
Black pearls
The central panels undulate up and down and down and up, which I think you can see on the above photo.
Busy week again with samples, blood test, dentist and doctors but hoping to catch up with a friend I went to school with. We try and meet up once per month to put the world to rights.
I will be back on Thursday with this month's MAWTT DT card so until then, be good.
TTFN

Morning Ang I hope you feel better soon and good luck with all your appointments this week. I like the colours on this card and a great technique xx

Hello Ang,
ReplyDeleteGreat card today, and I hope your appointments go well.
George has had this sickness bug and I thought I wasn't going to get to the gang meet up for few days talk and laughter, but I'm away this morning for my train. Be good, I'm watching you ha ha.

Hi Ang, beautifully designed card, love the colour combination and the stamps.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear that you've been poorly, I hope you are well and truly better now,will be in touch soon, take care Kate x
Hi Mrs D,Just love this card,elegant stylish and beautiful colour scheme.I use the stamp press too and I am tentatively dipping my toe into John's inky ideas.Still not sure it is for me but at least trying.Hope your appointments go well,take care love Barbara D xx
ReplyDeleteWishing you a much better week. Your design today is impressive. So glad you have been converted to the Press too Impress. Here in the US, I have access to a different stamping platform. It took me awhile to warm-up to the idea of it. But I am an awful stamper with blocks. Now, using my stamping platform, I get it right 99% of the time. Now I don't even think about grabbing a block to use. Get crafting product.
ReplyDeleteA great take on the triple stamping technique I'm stalling on getting a Press as I really don't do a lot of stamping (yet!)
ReplyDeleteLovely card Ang, but I can't quite make out the bottom piece, the photo looks like there is embossed lines across it !! Not sure I get what triple stamping is lol !! Will have to watch John when he's on tv. Janice xx http://createdbyjan.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteLovely card Ang. Hope you are feeling a lot better. I love my stamp press. Would t be without it.
ReplyDeleteHi Ang super card. I don't do a lot of stamping but got the Press to Impress after watching John and I'm really pleased with it, even managed to do some inserts without messing them up!! Hope you are feeling a bit better at the time you read this love from Jackie xx
ReplyDeleteHi Ang fabulous card and I really hope your feeling better soon! might try one of those press thingy's out lol huggles Sue xx
ReplyDeleteI got so becited about your card being able to undulate, And, I can't remember what else I was going to say! Give me a minute. Okay, okay, I have gathered myself and I must say I do love the pretty design!! I'm finally over my challenge and can go back to trolling my friends (in a good way!). I'm sorry to hear that you have come down with a chest cold. I hope the meds do the trick and it goes away soon! And I'm glad to hear the biz is going well!! Hugs, Darnell
ReplyDeleteStunning card, so inventive. Take care and rest up x
ReplyDeleteHi Ang
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear you've been under par again, such a shame you can't have the odd hot toddy!

Take care

Hi Ang, sorry to hear that you have not been feeling great. I hope this passes quickly. Love this card, the central panels give so much dimension. Take care of yourself Ma'am. And take care all. Bx
