The Eyes Still Have It

Good morning and happy Thursday. It's Sue here with my second project for this fun challenge. Once again I've gone back to some of my favourite older stamps, this time from Dina Wakley.

There are more photographs here on my blog and I would love it if you would visit.
Have a fun week, and thanks so much for looking x

Cats eyes

Good morning it's Jane back today with my 2nd project I have made for the current March challenge I am hosting. The theme is "The eyes have it"
Please can I remind everyone that I would like to see projects featuring an eye or eyes either as the main focus of a project or part of a person/face/animal/alien 😍😎😊etc which again is prominent. That means no tiny birds in a tree where we can just about find a glimpse of 1 eye using a microscope or where they are hidden away in the background! They can be eyes from animals/ characters or fantasy creatures as long as it is the focus/main part of your project. The rules for entry to our challenges can be read here  or are in the tab above. It is only fair to those people who follow them that we delete those entries which do not comply. Thank you again for your understanding 👀

This time I have gone with cats eyes and used one of my favourite ever cat stamps by Visible Image to make this birthday card. 
Billy, my cat, gave me a hand with writing my post over on my blog here He would give a very loud purr if you pop on over to have a look and he even allowed me to take his picture too. 
I hope to see lots of lovely entries this month where eyes feature. 👀 Enjoy! 
Bye for now,

March 2020 - The Eyes Have It

Welcome everyone to our March Challenge.

Our theme this month is The Eyes Have It, chosen by the lovely Jane. We love you taking part in our challenges so this month, don't forget The Eyes Have It must be included in your projects to be in with a chance to win a £20 Gift Voucher.


Welcome to our March challenge, which I am delighted to be your hostess for.  I have chosen as my theme "The eyes have it" 👀  and I would like to see your projects which feature an eye/eyes. Your eyes can belong to a human, animal, fantasy character, space man... you get the picture! The eye/eyes can be a part of a face but please can I just ask that it/they are the main feature of your project. That means no eyes on a tiny bird which is on a tiny tree in the background where we might need glasses to spot them...😂If you can barely see them then neither can we!

Please can we give everyone a gentle reminder of our rules which you can read here or in the tab above . We do have a theme each month which does need to be followed to in order to be in with a chance of winning the generous monthly randomly generated prize.  If you think that your "take" on our theme is not completely obvious please give an explanation in your post. Please do ask if you have any questions, we are a really friendly bunch here but to be fair to everyone who enters and keeps to our rules we need to not let things slip.  
Entries that do not comply with our rules will not receive comments from our team, will not be entered in the draw and may be deleted.
Thank you for your understanding 😊 

I love eye stamps and I own lots of them. For my first design team project I am using one of the brand new Visible Image eye stamp sets called 2020 Vision.
If you would like to see how I put this together say "Aye" pop on over to my blog here. During March I will be visiting your blogs to see all your lovely entries and if time permits I will be commenting on them too. I can't wait to see your eye projects.
I will be back on Tuesday with my 2nd piece which is very different and yes I think my cat Billy might have a hand in inspiring me 😸
Bye for now,



I've been having a play with some eye stamps and a face stencil for my first make this month. You can find more details on my blog here. Hope you can join us this month. Hugs Rachel xx
