Happy New Year John. The cards are lovely. Even though the stamp is the same they look different. I find that colouring in is relaxing and I have been known to doze off whilst doing it, but then I am pretty ancient ha ha.

Happy New Year John hope you have a prosperous and healthy one, love the cards and the stamp looks amazing I’m sure you’ll use it loads even just for its relaxing colouring in.

Just lovely, the first one is my favourite, but you must be so pleased with all three. My first oxide pads I purchased were the same colours as number three, as they are my favourite colours of all time, but I think I could manage colouring in without worrying about all the shading. I hope you find some more stamps in your stash, I look forward to seeing them in the New Year. All the best for 2019 and look forward to finding more of your creations and I hope you get a few more ‘round the click’ sleeps. Love Joan x

Beautiful, John! Really lovely and well made stamp. The images are sharp, crisp and clear, and your colour of each of the cards is fabulous. Well done you clever chap!
Oh … and Happy New Year too! May this year bring you joy, happiness, peace, love and perhaps a lottery win. Not so big that it turns your head and makes you giddy thinking about Rolex watches and a Rolls Royce, but enough to give you the giggles and pay the mortgage and bills for a good few months.
Much love ~ Cobs. x

I’m not into stamping really, but I’m going to have a look. Simple stamp I think, but very effective. I’ve just given my craft room a complete re-vamp, so it’s time for something outside my comfort zone. Have a good year John. More good night’s sleep. xx

This is a cracking stamp just love love love the
simplicity of the flowers. I really enjoy ‘colouring in’ and find it relaxing although I’ve never managed a mega sleep like yours but I can live in hope ha ha.
Looks like 2019 is going to be a good crafting year
Keep smiling Karen x
