Lifetime of Love

Good Morning All,

Today I have a touch of #simplestamping, just one stamp set, one ink pad and some DSP.

Some Specialty Vellum was added to a white card base.

The main image was stamped on to separate panel of card stock with Gray Granite ink. This was adhered to the base with Snail.

Finally, I stamped the sentiment. This was trimmed to fit the panel and added using dimensionals.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The supplies used are listed and linked to the online store below.

Hello Everybody,

I loved making yesterday’s card, so here’s another using similar supplies.

This time I chose the large oval sentiment which was stamped with Soft Sea Foam Ink.

The composition meant I needed to trim down my usual card base so the images were central.

Just Black & White

Good Morning,

Today’s project is a Facebook challenge entry….. The theme is black and white.

I went straight to the free Botanical Butterfly Designer Series Paper knowing there were a number of black and white designs.

I adhered the paper to a Whisper White card base.

The white panel was stamped with Timeless Textures before adding to the card.

The sentiments were selected from the Rooted in Nature stamp set. A 2-1/4 inch circle punch was used to cut the largest, whilst the other was stamped straight on to a narrow strip of card. These were adhered with dimensionals.

The flowers were stamped and punched and were added to the card along with some sequins.

I love how this card turned out, pretty and simple design but really effective.

The card base was built from Whisper White card stock. A smaller panel adhered to black card stock before adding to the base.

Green Swirl Birthday

Hello Everyone,

This card I made for an Irish friend who loves green.

And if green isn’t your colour, this design can easily be made in colours to suit your taste.

I like building backgrounds with different colour inks. The Swirly Bird stamp set is perfect for this.

I started with the largest image, stamped in the lightest colour, Soft Sea Foam. Stamping in threes is generally pleasing to the eye too.

The smaller images were added in the other colours, finishing with the splatter that was stamped with the darkest colour, Shaded Spruce.

Shaded Spruce was also used for the sentiment. This was added to over hang the layers behind the background panel.

Lovely Day #GDP173

Good Morning Everybody,

The Global Design Project challenge this week is a sweet colour challenge.

As always there is plenty of inspiration from the Design Team on their blog. You can see them here!

And this is my project.

I have to say So Saffron is not one of my favourite colours, but a challenge is a challenge and I was pleased with the end result.

I started by picking out the stamp set I wanted to work with… The pink and green led me to Flowers so I chose Forever Lovely.

Flowers and leaves were die cut and put to one side while I composed the rest of the card.

I opted to use So Saffron for the sentiment. The card stock was trimmed down and corners rounded. I added the hearts to the background to lift the sentiment, which I adhered with dimensionals.

The white layer was added to Soft Sea Foam card stock, and then to a So Saffron card base.

Finally, I added the flowers and leaves. Some used double height dimensionals for extra depth.

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

Butterfly Thanks

Hello Everyone,

I almost made a one layer card….. But then I thought my dimensionals would feel left out!

I have used the Beauty Abounds stamp set again today, I just love it, and this time I used some of the dies too.

The large floral image was stamped first with Coastal Cabana Ink.

Two stamped butterflies were added with Bermuda Bay ink. The sentiment was punched separately using the Classic Label Punch.

The tiny butterflies were die cut from Bermuda Bay card stock and adhered with multipurpose glue. A few white sequins completed the card.
