I thought I would also share with you some pictures from a walk along Cromford canal yesterday afternoon. The sun came out and we had a lovely stroll, watching the ducks and swans. There were lots of catkins and snowdrops too.

Oldies but goodies
The theme at an Oldie but a Goodie challenge this fortnight is Spring is in the Air, so I thought I would use a few more of my tulip stamps (I've got quite a few, but not as many as I have trees!)
This one is by Outlines rubber stamp company, and I think I've had it at least eight years! I coloured it with promarkers and mounted on funky fairy papers. The sentiment is by Little Claire. I'm still not sure about those magenta tulips though, so I found another stamp and made this...
This is a magenta stamp (about 9 or 10 years old), stamped and embossed onto cartridge paper and watercoloured with my aquatone pencils and a water brush. I added an embossed panel and some stickles.

It was lovely to get some fresh air and exercise. Thanks for looking!

I love tulips and the image on the first card is beautiful with such gorgeous colours.
Your Aquatone colouring of the second one is really lovely too.

Gorgeous Tulips, Sally. Can't wait to see them in the garden. I love both your cards but the first one has just got it as my favourite, that's a lovely stamp and you've coloured them beautifully.
It's great to be able to get out and about in the countryside isn't it. The lovely weather makes it a crime to stay indoors. Lets hope Spring is here to stay now.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Love your cards Sally. Perhaps it won't be too long now before we see some actual tulips round about. The snowdrops, daffodils and crocuses are all poking through the ground so spring is definitely on the way! xx
