Make it humourous at Countryview Crafts

Hello there! How are you? I hope you are good! Can you believe its May already? How did that happen? This year is truely racing away!

Over at Countryview challenges this month is all about humour! Monika has chosen the theme and I decided to use some paperartsy stamps in my first piece this month.


What a cake eh? The words I have stolen from a sign in my Mother in Law's kitchen. They have been there for years! 

To make my background I used distress oxides in wilted violet, shaded lilac and cracked pistachio and then did some overstamping in these colours using some Trish Latimer background stamps.  The main image is from zinski-art-set-22. I stamped him on a piece of card and watercoloured in distress ink before fussy cutting and adding to the background.

You can join our challenge here.

  12. Lovely background for that apple shape cook! Years of TV cooking programmes tell me that, although home cooks tend not to be on the skinny side, professional chefs aren't big at all... either too busy to eat themselves or just blase about the food they make!
