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.

I hope you enjoyed these projects. The supplies used are listed and linked to the online store below.
I would love to be your demonstrator.
Thanks for stopping by today and happy Stampin’!

Many Medallions meets Daisy Lane

Hello Everyone,
Isn’t this die cut just stunning! I chose a dark colour for the base card to make the details stand out.
The sentiment was added with dimensionals and the daisy petals shaped to add texture.

See how I made this card in my video tutorial….
I hope you enjoyed this project.

More Watercolour Backgrounds and a Colour Challenge!

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

This what I came up with.
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?

I hope you enjoyed this project.

Hello Everyone,
I hope you had a lovely weekend!
This week I am making backgrounds! And I am starting with this blended background using the 2920 in colours.
