August at Stamping Sensations

Good Morning! It is the first Sunday of the Month and time for a new Challenge over at Stamping Sensations! This month's theme is.....

***Anything Goes*** 
As the title suggests we want to see your projects featuring stamping. I have used Gummipan feather stamps (Available from our sponsor this month) and a sentiment  from Hobby Art. I used a kaleidacolor ink pad called Calypso.
I made a second card using the same design...
This time I used a sentiment from Inkylicious and the Cappuchino Kaleidacolor ink pad. 
Our Sponsors this month are a relatively new company called Swedish House Crafts. They are very friendly and reliable, run by crafters for crafters. I ordered several Gummipan stamps that arrived promptly and are unique designs and good quality red rubber. Several of their sentiments made me laugh out loud! 
 Do pop over to the challenge blog and take a look at all the gorgeous creations from my multi talented teamies, and I look forward to visiting your great entries but please note: if we do not comment on your entry it will be because it does not follow the theme, qualify under our rules, or because we are asked to sign in or provide additional data to comment. We do not want to be rude but we do want to be fair to those who do follow the rules.
Thanks for looking!

I very much like the second card with the warm Autumnal colours Sal, but I think the first using the rainbow inks is so vibrant and eye catching.

Have a good Sunday.

Two beautiful cards Sally and I love that feather stamp. Your first card looks great with the graduated colours and I just love that sentiment. My Hubby and I had a strange encounter with a small white feather just after our youngest Granson was born back in January. His birth had to be induced a month early as he had stopped growing and it was decided that he wasn't likely to survive if he was left until full term. He was 4lb 13oz when he was born and such a fragile little thing. Anyway, moving on.... when he came home with Mum, we were all feeling emotional but so relieved to have them both home, safe and sound. When Hubby and I got in our car to drive home, a single tiny white feather fluttered down, seemingly out of nowhere and landed on my knee. We just looked at each other and we knew exactly at that point that he would be okay. He's now six months old and such a healthy and happy little boy. I feel sure that Angels were with us at that time and I felt really touched when I read the sentiment on your card. Your second card has a lovely Autumnal palette and is totally different from the first one, even though you've used the same feather stamp. Crafty hugs, Sandra x
