Happy New Year & Giveaway

Hi and welcome to my first blog post for AALLandCreate for 2018. Today I have a card using stamps from AALLandCreate. All stamps and stencils are available from THE BOUTIQUE.

I also have a little giveaway at the end of this post to say THANK YOU for all your support during the past twelve months.
The cute monster I have used in this accordion is designed by Olga and you can find the stamp set HERE.
My background on my accordion is created using Infusions and I could not resist but to add some googly eyes to one of my monsters.
I also added touches of white using a Posca Paint Pen to lift the background a little and my monsters have also been stamped onto an Infusions background.
I have added a touch of black ink around the edges and added the sentiments from the same stamp set.
I have also added a touch of background stamping using Bipasha's background stamp which you can find HERE.
These monsters are great fun to use and add a reall whimsical feel to your designs.

As a huge THANK YOU for all your support over the past year during my journey with AALLandCreate, I have a little giveaway for you.

One randomly drawn winner from this blog post will win this stamp set. I will draw the winner next Friday 26th January.

Thanks so much for stopping by.

Tracy

    How absolutely "fun & frollicks" the vibe is here! The accordion style card is brilliant to show the cute, mischievous monsters. Those googly eyes are so fun & quirky. Your background continues the fun; liking the monochromatic hues, splashes of white &, for me, an almost "scribbled" look, great for the cheeky monsters! I think you enjoyed creating this😀.
    (Now for some reason, I'm scratching my head, wondering why I've not heard of Infusions?)....
