Thought I'd inject some floral cheer in to your lives today.
It's flamin' freezing where I am and apparently the temperature is set to plummet even further over the coming days.....Brrrrrrr.
C'mon spring!!!!
For this card I used a selection of Majestix Clear Peg stamps.
I love these stamps....all sorts of teeny, tiny images that are brilliant for creating backgrounds, wreaths, etc....
I stamped with a selection of Versacolor inks, nothing fancy-schmancy in my technique, just clean, honest stamping....lol.
Now if you've never seen Majestix stamps before, they come in tiny packs with maybe 5 - 7 mini stamps per set. Instead of having loads of tiny packs, I stick all of the stamps to a piece of A5 acetate, draw with a Sharpie pen around each set (so I know which set is which) and then I cut up the packaging and stick that to a piece of A5 card. I then keep it all in an A5 plastic wallet like my other stamps.
(I hope that makes sense!)
I can squeeze about 12 sets on 1 piece of A5 acetate....much better than storing 12 individual packs of stamps.
So there you go.... Mother Nature has been on the phone and promised me that spring and some warmer weather will be here soon.
For now...stay warm n' cosy.

Such a lovey card! I really like peg stamps and think I would like these clear ones too. I am not sure if they are sold in the us though. Such a space saver how you are storing them!
Love the way you are storing these stamps, very practical,if you do not mind I might have to "borrow" your idea.

Lovely Spring time card Janey! I am working with these stamps too for coming workshops but they are on wood.....from Rubber Stamp Tapestry. Totally different style of what I use to create...... but fun to work with!
Oh boy, could I use some of this color in my garden. I'll keep wishing until Mother Nature decides to put on her colorful extravaganza. Hopefully my garden will look as spectacular as your beautiful, fresh card. Thanks for the tips on storing these stamps...I'm off to shop.
Absolutely beautiful Jane,love your design and the pretty florals, loving your colours too Kate x
So pretty Jane..love the tiny stamps and the beautiful vibrant colours on your card..I stole your idea for some stamps then wondered why as I do not ususally stamp, so I changed it up for my dies..LOVE IT..found the A5 ring binders bought 20 of them and then found the A5 clear files to go inside and I just love this for storage..
Luv CHRISSYxx
