Magical and in my garden

                         

I'm here today with the new themes for August at the monthly challenges I am on the DT for at We Love Stamping and Stamping Sensations.

My first card is for the Anything stamped with option of  Make it Magical at Stamping Sensations. I used Lavinia stamps and stencil to create this card with the emphasise on leaving some white space.

We have a Prize of 3 Fairy Hugs stamps

My second card is for the theme of In my Garden at We Love Stamping. I love succulents and so had to have this large Altenew stamp but I've only used it a couple of times before. I thought it would work as a background stamp. I coloured it with brushos and scribble sticks.

Then I used some stamps from various sets and fussy cut them out again colouring with brushos. Then I used a JND stamp and die set Bee Balm for the flowers and the little bee. I added a few foilage leaves from a JND die and pearls to the flowers.

There are 2 prizes, an AALL and Create A5 stamp set and a stencil.
