Hello Everyone!

Today is new catalogue day and the start of Sale-a-bration, so social media will be all about the new products and freebies, but I thought I would give one last hurrah to some Last Chance favourites… All available while stocks last!

Links to the new catalogues are available at the bottom of this post!

I created a distressed look background with Textured Timber stamp set, gold embossing powder and Wild Wheat Rustic ribbon.

You can see how I made this card in my video tutorial….

The sentiment was also heat embossed in gold and die cut with this lovely Christmas Labels die.

Blueberry Bushel, Early Espresso and Copper Clay inks were used to stamp the florals and foliage.

This version uses Blackberry Bliss, Pretty in Pink, Pretty Peacock and Summer Splash.

Encircled in Nature Three Ways!

Hello Everyone!

I have had this bundle on my shelf for ages, I can’t believe I haven’t inked this because it is fabulous…. And is now on the last chance list!

Sooooo … I’m cramming THREE ideas in today’s post – get it before it is gone for good!

***** ***** *****

This one is my favourite.

The scene was created on a Nested Essential die cut leaving the edge white.

The same ink was used on the card base layer and then added some iridescent striped ribbon.

***** ***** *****

I used the larger single tree image for this forest of Pretty in Pink, Petunia Pop, Berry Burst and Blackberry Bliss.

This is on Very Vanilla cardstock for a different look.

***** ***** *****

For this one I used the dies to create an aperture in some designer series paper.

More die cuts embellished the frame along with some Pecan Pie stitched ribbon.

The supplies used are listed and linked to the online store below.

I would love to be your demonstrator.
