Wise Words

I am really enjoying being part of The Stampman ATC swap, hadn't ever made an ATC in my life before I joined in and now I'm a bit addicted and have received some lovely art work from other crafters. This month the theme is Wise Words and as there is a bit of spring in the air I've used these lovely stamps which are Aspects of Designs I've had for ages. I love playing with the individual stamps - the pots, planters, flowers etc to  create scenes and came up with three different garden/spring themed pieces, each with a different quote from the same stamp set.  I don't have a garden so creating these was lovely - my own little pieces of spring inside!

I've used Flower soft on this one to create blooms in the pot

This is my favourate and like on the third one I did some masking and stamping

 They are all coloured with Promarkers - got a bit of a wonky pot on this one!
As well as The Stampman Swap I am entering these into the following challenges -
Crafty Calender - Spring
The Artistic Stamper - Spring
Stamptacular Sunday - 'Are you talking to me?'
Secret Crafter - Anything but a card

Hope spring is finaly arriving where you are too..Esther xx
