I really struggled with this week's colour combo !It was all a bit of a flashback to 1980's fashion - guys in grey suits with pale pink shirts !
But a flit around some of the other participants blogs was inspirational & I tried to banish my prejudices !
Yesterday I went to the Art Stamps England show at Newbury Race Course.
Its a nice show - not too big & the organisers oblige the stall holders all to stock different stamp brands/ranges from one another - so each stand had something different to looksat & there are no duplications !
I was in stamp heaven ! And could resist everything except temptation !!
I bought a couple of the JOFY minis which compliment my larger stamp sets - and the fuchsia & funky grass on my pink & charcoal ATC are from these stamps.
Oh simply beautiful! Haha, I can't resist stamps either. But I am always afraid to use them after, so they sadly sit there. The softness of this colouring is just so dreamy. <3

ReplyDeleteA stamp show sounds dangerous!!! I can't see any sign of struggle here, so delicate and lovely. Gorgeous use of the SOC colours. :)
ReplyDeleteWow, you sound ever so restrained on the purchasing front! Nice card you made though too.
ReplyDeleteThank you for this little story about stamp heaven and the 80s. A lot to smile ad remember. Your new stamps are beautiful and your work too. I love the discreet design and using colors.
