Here for You

Hello Everyone,

I am playing along with a Facebook colour challenge today!

I have used the Beautiful Promenade bundle to make my project. Isn’t the doily die cut stunning?

A white card layer was stamped randomly with leaves using first and second generation Mint Macaron ink. This was adhered to a white card base.

A smaller white layer was added with dimensionals. The doily was die cut from Mint Macaron card stock and adhered to the card.

Three sets of leaves and the flower were stamped on to a separate piece of card in Old Olive and Daffodil Delight inks. These were die cut and arranged on the card.

The sentiment was stamped with Old Olive ink and slotted in under the flower. A few rhinestones finished the project.

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

I would love to be your demonstrator.

Inspire.Create #039

Hello Everyone,

Welcome to my blog. Every other Monday I share my project that I have used as my entry for the Inspire.Create challenge.

This time it’s a theme challenge. The design team have made some wonderful samples as inspiration. You can see them here.

Well this is a challenge… After a rummage in my stash, I found a goldfish image in the Jar of Love stamp set, so I made a tank for them.

The back drop was made with a stamp from the Lily Pad Lake set. The weeds are partially stamped foliage from Jar of Love.

A Stitched Rectangle was used to cut an aperture in a white card layer. This was added over top with dimensionals.

The fishes were stamped and die cut and added to the ‘tank’.

By chance, the greeting “best fishes” was included in the set. I added this with Pumpkin Pie ink.

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

I would love to be your demonstrator.

Best Wishes #GDP181

Hello Everyone,

This week is a colour challenge!

See what the Design Team have created with this colour palette here

I have to say when I pulled these from my colour caddy I wasn’t instantly inspired.

But I remembered something I had shown my downline about using the Stamparatus to create multicoloured images.

With that in mind, I decided to use Petal Palette to make my project.

And this is my card…

I started by preparing the florals.

I mounted the stamp onto the clear door of the tool. I used sponge daubers to apply the inks.

I stamped with Daffodil Delight ink first. Cleaned the stamp and then applied Grapefruit Grove. I repeated this with Lemon Lime Twist. The images were die cut with the coordinating Framelits.

I prepped a card base using Daffodil Delight card stock and added a Lemon Lime Twist layer.

Before adding Whisper White, I first stamped some foliage to add detail to the background.

The die cuts were adhered to the bottom of the card with dimensionals.

A sentiment was stamped with Grapefruit Grove ink and cut with a die from the same set.

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

Spring Flowers

Hello Everyone,

This morning’s project is for a Facebook theme challenge from Jill. She has chosen spring flowers for the challenge.

I picked out the In Every Season stamp set and worked with the little bluebells.

I started by die cutting some Pool Party and vellum card stocks with the Stitched Rectangles dies.

The vellum was then embossed with the Layered Leaves folder and adhered to the Pool Party piece. Adhesive was applied knowing it would be covered by other elements of the card. Some Polka Dot Tulle was added to the piece before adding to the card.

The flowers were stamped with Stazon Ink to allow the use of watercolour pencils. These were then fussy cut and adhered on the left hand side. A small bow was secured over the untidy stems.

The sentiment was stamped and die cut. This adhered with dimensionals. Some matching glitter enamel dots completed the card.

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.
