Feeling blue...

Today is my final show from the Create and Craft show with the Michael Powell stamps (have I mentioned just how much I love these stamps!!!).
 This card I coloured all in blue, just to show that you don't need to spend lots and lots of time using lots of colour. These stamps have been very cleverly created and the designs are amazing. So easy to use and the shading just happens when you are working with them.
I thought that this card, done in the shades of blue, worked very well as a card for a man.
Of course, you could use any colour you would like.
 This card was made using one of the many extra bits that you get on the card kit.
The frame is one of the new xcut dies - I love love love these dies. (small ones are £9.95 and the big ones are £12.95 - what a bargain! ! ! !
I love the fact that the dies all come on their own magnet sheet too - no more lost and damaged dies!
I'm away for a few days (catering for a mad group of Guiding Leaders! lol) but I'll be back next week with lots more to show.....
Keep an eye out for the new launch from Do Crafts next week..... It's a Boofle extravagaza!!!!!!!!! I'll be back to share some of the samples that I made from that.
Have a great weekend!
Happy crafting.
