Bird Crazy and Crazy Things - Tim Holtz Collection

I am loving creating with the new Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous and Sizzix Bird Crazy and Crazy Things (the accessories) stamps and dies.

The tag is a Go Kreate one stamped with a Kaszazz spiders and cobweb stamp.  The bird was painted using Distress inkpads Twisted Citron, Abandoned Coral and Hickory Smoke.

Tim Holtz - Stampers Anonymous Urban Tapestry

A bit more of a dappled background using left over watercolour paints with the Tim Holtz / Stamper's Anonymous Urban Tapestry set.  The sentiment is from Hero Arts Say it All with the border punch on the left hand side being Martha Stewart's Chequered Square.

With me easing into retirement I thought I would have a lot more time to create - I am still making cards and projects in the evenings but am tending to spend more time learning to draw and paint in all different mediums.  To take the pressure off of me I will start posting twice a week in future.

Stampers Anonymous - Road Trip

Using another leftover watercolour background I die cut it out with Go Kreate Ovals.

The image is from the Tim Holtz / Stamper's Anonymous set Road Trip.  The sentiment, die cut with Spellbinders Reverse Wonky Rectangles is another Tim Holtz / Stampers Anonymous set called Good Thoughts.  The background paper is from a pad by DCWV called Stack 7.

Stamper's Anonymous - Urban Tapestry

Whilst finishing off a watercolour painting the other day I decided not to waste some already mixed colours.  I did a few background washes which I thought might go well with solid stamps such as this Urban Tapestry set by Tim Holtz / Stampers Anonymous.

The sentiment is Kaszazz Lucy's Stamps - Happy Birthday.
