Bumper Edition..!! New Paperbabe Stamps and Blog Challenge..

 Hello Creative Friends 

Three new Paperbabe stamp sets are due for release on 30th July 

Each set works in harmony together and cleverly co-ordinates 
with many other Paperbabe stamps in the collection.

Here's a Bumper sample introduction.. 
First using just two Hand stamps and a Hand Written stamp quote..


Manipulating two clear hand stamps curving around the heart surrounded 
by quotes from the Hand Written stamp set and the other with just one 
simple hand holding a message of unity in a clean and simple style. 


Combining stamps from all three sets the postcard design inspired me to 
stamp, hand embroider and create a needle tag book with calico and thread. 


Just a handful of samples using the NEW RELEASE STAMPS.

Today see's the start of a new Paperbabe Stamps Challenge 
why not pop over and see what the Design Team have created 
and share your makes @ Paperbabe Stamps Blog Challenge #173 

There's a prize for one randomly chosen winner every fortnight. 

Stay safe and creative

Plants, Paint, Purple..

 Hello everyone, 

Completion on my Mother in Laws house sale draws closer but 
I'm still juggling time between houses, there's honestly not 
much creative time. I strive but more than most struggle 
to create anything other than in my traveling junk diary. 

Nature is always inspiring and at present I have the best of 
both gardens, documenting in snap shots how everything thrives.


My Sempervivum's continue to have babies (hen's and chicks) 
can you spot the common blue who has come to visit? 

Documented in watercolour and gouache in my Junk Diary..


My MIL's Purple Rhododendren has flowered like never before..


This bush is over forty years old and stands 7 feet tall 
does that it makes it a tree? It's really showing off this 
year with a magnificent display. I hope the new home owners 
take good care of her.. If I could uproot her I really would..


A continuous pen face drawing of MIL an early month 
reminder to get that hair appointment booked


finishing with a photo of Freya supporting her recent Grandma cut 😁


Wishing you all a safe & creative weekend 

Hugs Tracey xx
