So I have been having a little play with my Banana Frog stamps today whilst QVC craft day has been going on - absolutely zero tempted me I am pleased to say!
- BF Super Stars stamps
- Arctic Frog stickers
- Rob n Bob paper
- BF Pharmacy font
- BF Make a Chain dotted border
- GinX papers
- Glossy accents for the middle of the flowers
- BF Make a chain doo-dads
- BF Pharmacy font
- Glossy accents over the font and lotsa 3-d mini foam!
- BF Fireworks stamps
- BF Flower Thoughts greeting
- KI spooky papers
- BF Flower Thoughts (flower and centre)
- BF teeny Teen alpha stamps
And finally, the scan is mega crap, but here's my version of the latest cardmaker's dare - an aperture card.
Should probably have taken a photo, but basically, a pearlescent square card with an aperture cut in it.... then I stamped and painted on the reverse of some acetate with MM foam flower stamps and paints and mounted it on the reverse... had a mishap with some ink that hadn't dried which went all over the front - hence the ribbon and flower! :oD
But it still looks nice in real life - really liked stamping on acetate in reverse with the paint - it's a lovely look when you don't mess it up with black ink smudges!
well I love all your cards ( I always do) but if i have to pick faves it would be the congrats with the stars on and the painting on acetate. They are so fresh and funky. I've not tried painting on acetate so it goes on my list of things to have a go at!

wow that's an impressive haul of cards you've made there! They are all fab, too! I've just acquired my first set of Banana Frog stamps and they look great - I think I'll leave them all clean and shiny for a while just to look at first though.....
I love the stamping on acetate you've done on your DCM card, love the soft "smudgy" effect it gives. I know I bought a sheet of acetate a while back to have a go at stuff like this, but I'm blowed if I can find it now.

Gorgeous Nat, what a fab collection of stamped cards. I love the stamping with paint onto acetate, never tried that but you've inspired me to give it a go, the effect is brilliant.

You are so quick! Your cards all look so clean and clear and professional. Isn't it amazing how we can take advantage of accidents to create soemthing wonderful? We wouldn't have seen that cute little pansy without the black ink smudge happening - Lol!

Nice to see some more of your cards. They are all lush - the pharmacy stamps are fab. I think I need them. I watched LOADS of craft day too - the only shows that really inspired me were the DCWV and 7gypsies.
