Another Colour Challenge with the Lots of Heart Bundle

Hello Everyone,

I couldn’t resist this colour challenge…. Any excuse to use my favourite colour!

  • Bermuda Bay
  • Crumb Cake
  • Sahara Sand
  • Basic Black

I pulled out the Lots of Heart stamp set and coordinating dies to make my card.

This stamp set is retiring at the end of the month and currently still available at half price!

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

Mixing up the colours worked well too. You might even stretch to give this card to a guy … Perhaps exchanging the Bermuda Bay for Night of Navy or Misty Moonlight

I love the pop of colour with this arrangement. I think this would work with a variety of colours.

I hope you enjoyed this project.

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

If your order is less than £150, use the Hostess Code QACFP2SJ when placing your order to get an extra gift from me!

I would love to be your demonstrator.

Monday Colour Challenge with Watercolour Shapes

Hello Everyone,

Monday is here again…. so it’s time for a colour challenge!

This week’s colours are;

  • Night of Navy
  • Merry Merlot
  • Pacific Point

I’d already decided that I was going to work with the Watercolour Shapes stamp set regardless off the colours that came out.

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

I think they worked out quite well in the end and I do love the bold sentiments in the Biggest Wish set!

The original samples were made using the skinny rectangle shape.

The Merry Merlot sentiment is my favourite, which is yours?

I hope you enjoyed this project.

Monday Colour Challenge with Delicate Petals

Hello Everyone,

For this week’s Monday Colour Challenge I am working with;

  • Merry Merlot
  • Mint Macaron
  • Pacific Point

The Delicate Petals was on my desk to use again before it retires. I haven’t seen many samples using this set online either, which is such a pity. I think it is a lovely set.

I have layered the pieces together to create a dimensional floral embellishment .

The Double Oval punch was perfectly sized to cut the sentiment.

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

The background stamp is easy to line up as it is photopolymer. I love how this lines up to create a full circle.

Which is your favourite?

Monday Colour Challenge with the Tranquil Thoughts Stamp Set

Hello Everyone,

This week’s colour challenge….

  • Garden Green
  • Mango Melody
