Autumnal One Sheet Wonder

Hello Everyone,

I’m trying something new! A one sheet wonder! I’ve seen lots of these around on Facebook and YouTube, so I wanted to give it a go.

The products I’ve chosen are based on two Facebook challenges, Autumnal theme and a colour challenge;

I picked out leaf images from the Rooted in Nature and Loyal Leaves stamp sets.

See how I made my cards in my video tutorial…

I hope you enjoyed this project.

Heather was inspired to try some masking. A fantastic way to build a complete background!

Ombre Style Background with The Right Triangle Stamp Set

Hello Everyone,

Something a bit different for today’s project.

You may well have seen my other projects featuring this stamp set, so I thought I would try another using one of the smaller images.

I started with this grey design, but changed my final design to fit more neatly on the card front.

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

Many apologies .. the audio has not uploaded properly to You Tube!

Birthday Card featuring the Many Mates Bundle from Stampin’ Up!

Hello Everyone,

I hope you all hand a great weekend!

Do you remember my card from last week using the Many Medallions dies?

I ended up making a another project with the leftover pieces….

I used Playing with Patterns designer series paper as the backdrop.

For the re-make, I used one of the other dies in the set and changed the colours.

See how I made this card in my video tutorial….

InspireInk Blog Hop – 2020-2022 In Colours

Good Morning Everybody,

Welcome to this month’s InspireINK blog hop. This time we have a colour challenge to play with.

Please be sure to click through all the projects in the hop by clicking on the link below.

You are invited to the Inlinkz link party!

Click here to see the other entries!

For my design, I used post it notes to mask off sections of the cardstock to create a striped background.

The grid paper helped plan where the masks needed to be placed.

Stampin’ Sponges were used to apply the ink to each section. More colour was used along the left hand edge for an ombre look.

The vellum panel is 3 inches wide and long enough to wrap around the striped panel and secure with tape.

The “happy” die was added over the top with multipurpose glue.

Coordinating inks are used to stamp the rest of the greeting. Flag ends were punched with the Tailored Tag punch and adhered with dimensionals.

Small Blooms were cut from Whisper White card stock with a matching enamel dot placed in the centres.

You can see how the card was made in my video tutorial…

I hope you enjoyed this project. The supplies used are listed below.

Project Share Project

Hello Everyone,

Welcome to this week’s Project Share. As always my friends have created some lovely work. Please use the links to visit their blogs and read more about their projects.

This week all the ladies have made some masculine cards. These are always a little tricky so hopefully their work will give you some ideas!

Jill has used the power of geometry to create her card. The sentiment cleverly combines two different stamp sets.

Visit Jill’s blog here

Heather has gone for an automotive theme. I love how the heat embossing adds interest to the background.

Visit Heather’s blog here

Gez has gone for a vintage style. The embossing folder adds texture, and the inked edges give it that old world look.

More Watercolour Backgrounds and a Colour Challenge!

Hello Everyone,

Today’s project has been designed for the Facebook #sucolourchallenge…..

I like how the colours blended together and the over stamping makes each colour pop from the background.

See how I created my card in my video tutorial…..

I think I prefer the one on the left, what about you?

Anyone for Cocktails?

Hello Everyone,

I had some fun with colour to create this cute card featuring the Nothing’s Better Than bundle!

Postage Stamp Punch Window card

Hello Everyone,

I hope you had a lovely weekend!

This idea entered my head from somewhere…. I wanted to create a window look with the Postage Stamp punch!

I then had to work out how to do it….

Which colour way do you prefer?
