Crafty Cow Creations: doctor who

doctor who card in a box

i am a complete whovian

LOVE doctor who

and it is reassuring to know i am not the only one out there!

this card was a special order made for a doctor who fan

and i had sooo much fun making it :)

this is a card in a box design

outide is similar to the phone box

-i even managed to get the writing on the board on it

inside i found some orange circle dsp from the sweet taffy range that was similar to the circles inside the tardis

i added a dalek to the front saying ce-le-brate!

the grey bit with the red arrows is for someone to write their well wishes on

side of card with geronimo on it-one of the doctor's favourite sayings

i also put the gear punches on it because they remind me a lot of the galyfrian(sp?) language

the other side says allons-y which is another favourite saying of the doctors

view from the top looking down so you can see how it is made

i was asked to do a matt smith doctor so hence why this guy is wearing a fez and a bow tie...because you know that bowties are cool right?

i also included the tardis console complete with glowing green light in the middle courtesy of some window sheeting and glitter and candy dots!

hope the recipient loves this as much as i do-it will be hard to send this one to its new home :)

cheers ears

WOOHOO!! it's time to blog hop again!!!!

yes!!

it is time again for a hop around some fabulous esad stampin up demos

and check out what stampin up have on offer from the

new 2014/15 inspire create share catalogue

welcome from rochelle's beautiful blog

this new catalogue introduces photo polymer stamps to our range of wooden and clear mount sets.

i am a wood girl myself but after seeing the price and having a play i am suspecting that i may be buying more of these than i thought possible because they are so easy to use, easy to clean, durable, stick to my mounting blocks like gloves and are cool!

now if you have been coming here on a regular basis you know that my family are a bunch of nerdy geeks!

we love sci-fi, technology and anything geeky.

hence why i have chosen a timey wimey doctor who theme in preparation for the new doctor appearing on our screens in late august

-oh my-

i have goosebumps already lol

so the photo polymer stamp set i want to show you is the back to basics alphabet on page 98 of the catalogue (RRP $27.95 AUD)

this comes in capital and lower case letters and numbers.

you can stick them to your clear mount blocks to make words

but the only downfall is you only get one of each letter but it is easy to line them up

having said that i am a bit of a

free-hander kinda girl

so mine are a bit wibbly wobbly lol

i used the alphabet rotary stamp from page 191 of the catalogue.(rrp$25.95 AUD)
this stamp has been chomping on some serious steroids and has 13 wonderful spaces for letters to make words and phrases never before possible!
now this stamp is VERY cool
but it does come with a user warning of making sure
that you are stamping
on a level surface
so that you get crisp clean messages
every time.
i also wipe off any extra ink
from the spaces
between words before stamping down

here i stamped onto white card in a variety of colours
and then cut them out to stick onto the black card

here i used the stamp as a background stamp with versamark and embossing powders

here i used it straight to the card (not for the fainthearted can i just say)

as a love note for my sweetie
