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.

Nature’s Botanicals and a Colour Challenge!

Hello Everyone!

I’m featuring another beautiful new stamp set today and I have been inspired by the latest Global Design Project colour challenge.

The challenges are posted on Facebook. Look for other inspiration using #GDP477 on Facebook and Instagram.

I created a simple stamped background with Pretty in Pink and Poppy Parade and added this to a Pebbled Path card base.

Additional images were stamped and fussy cut for the focal point.

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

The sentiment was stamped in Pebbled Path ink and “double punched” with the Heartfelt Hexagon.

I used some white bakers twine and new Antique Pearl embellishments to finish off the card.

This blue version uses Boho Blue and Azure Afternoon.

The leaves are in Mossy Meadow, with Pretty Peacock for the details.

Pretty Peacock also embellishes the sentiment banner and I had some Blooming Pearls too.

Super Easy Cards for Any Occasion!

Hello Everyone!

I’m looking beyond Christmas with a simple card for any occasion.

I am working with the Labelled with Love stamp set and some of the 2024 In Colours.

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

Sadly, the Everyday Details dies have now retired and sold out, so I have subbed those for the Perennial Postage set instead.

I chose to use Early Espresso rather than black ink for the outline images and sentiment.

Colour Family Thank You Cards!

Hello Everyone,

Here’s a thank you card idea for you today.

I’ve thrown all the colours into this one, but you could adapt this to a single colour, an ombre look or anything else in between!

I used each of the colours in the Subtles colour family to stamp the background panel, 5 from the top, and 5 from the bottom. This left space to add the bold sentiment across the middle.

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

The panel was layered onto Basic Black cardstock, and some gold foil was added too.

I used the Regal colour family for this version.

Hello Everyone,

I wanted to share some quick and simple winter cards with you today. I thought these would be great to give to friends who do not celebrate Christmas!

I chose to use some bright pinks to create the card.

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

Blackberry Bliss was used as the accent colour in the layering and the sentiment.

A strip of striped iridescent ribbon added some shimmer and texture.
