Grace’s Garden 2

Hello Everyone,

Do you remember my card from last week using the Grace’s Garden stamp set?

Well, I enjoyed colouring the images so much I did some extras.

This time, I used a landscape orientation so I could use more of the die cuts, with a plain white panel of card stock as the back drop.

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.

Grace’s Garden

Hello Everyone,

I am so pleased with how this card turned out. It’s been in my head for some time!

I stamped the floral images I wanted to use on to some Whisper White card stock using Stazon black ink. The gate was stamped ith Memento ink. These were left to dry completely before colouring them.

Watercolour pencils were used to colour the flowers, smoothing out the lines with a blender pen.

I wanted the gate to be white, but added a touch of Ivory Stampin’ Blends marker for some depth.

All the pieces were die cut ready to adhere to the card.

A white card base was prepared by adding a layer of card stock which I coloured the edge of with a Highland Heather Stampin’ Blend Marker.

A final layer was stamped with a sentiment. The die cut pieces were added to the card using Snail and dimensionals.

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.

CAS Colours and Sketches #355

Hello Everyone,

Today’s card is my entry for the CAS Colours & Sketches challenge.

This week there is a sketch to work with. The design team have created some very creative samples that you can see here

As I missed out on the previous week’s colour challenge, I’m throwing this in too just for fun!

And this is what I have designed.

I have used the Daisy Lane bundle from the annual catalogue.

I started by stamping the leaf from the set with Granny Apple Green ink. This panel was added to a white card base with dimensionals.

Daisies were stamped in Seaside Spray ink and punched out. These were adhered along the top of the stamped panel.

The sentiment is from the Sale-a-bration set, Sending you Thoughts. I used Rococo Rose ink and cut these with a Stitched Rectangle die.

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

Parisian Blossoms 2 Ways

Hello Everyone,

I couldn’t decide on whether to use black or white card bases with this layout, so I made it with both.

Which do you prefer?

I used the usual card and DSP layers to build the card base.

The blossoms were stamped with matching ink on to the same colour card stock for a tone on tone look. Each was adhered with dimensionals.

The sentiment was stamped with Pool Party ink on white card stock. For the black card, this was heat embossed with white powder. These were also adhered with dimensionals.

Every Moment

Hello Everyone,

Did you know you can get this pack of patterned paper for FREE during the Sale-a-bration event?

The paper coordinates perfectly with the Honey Bee bundle, add some card stock to make a qualifying purchase of £45.

The paper was adhered to a Whisper White card base.

Memento ink was used to stamp two bees and the sentiment. The coordinating dies were used to cut the bees. The Nested Labels set was used to cut the sentiment. I also cut the honeycomb, which I coloured with a Mango Melody blends marker.

The die cuts were added to the card base with dimensionals. The honeycomb is very delicate, so this was sandwiched between two dimensionals which also secure the sentiment and one of the bees!
