It’s a Bugs Life!

11 April, 2017 by lizyuille Leave a Comment

11 Apr

The Beetles and Bugs stamp set was one of the first ones I knew I had to order from the Spring/Summer Catalogue when I first saw it at OnStage back in November. It is fantastic and so quirky; great for men and teenagers.

As I have a bit of a monochromatic theme going at the moment, my sample was made with Sepia tones (Early Espresso, Soft Suede and Crumb Cake) and the ‘live’ version was made in blue-green tones (Always Artichoke, Emerald Envy and Mint Macaron). Both versions used Very Vanilla for the stamping, which I think adds to both of them.

The 2 step stamping on the ‘live’ version is not perfect, due to the restrictions of filming (the back of my head not really being what you would want to see for that long), but it really is a simple process to do these and they are FANTASTIC!

I am being realistic and we have reset my Personal Bests for during this time in my life. But each week back at the gym is increasing those Personal Bests, which is great for the ego. It's all about being realistic.
