A Bit of Colouring with the Free as a Bird stamp set

Hello Everyone,

I fancied doing some colouring today, so I pulled out the Free as a Bird stamp set.

This set is in the annual catalogue and I don’t see it used very much….

I did a quick image search for British birds so I could use some appropriate colours.

These are coloured to resemble Robins using Calypso Coral, Smoky Slate, Bronze and Ivory.

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

Which card is your favourite?

Here’s the original sample with the little birds coloured to resemble blue tits. For these I used Balmy Blue, Old Olive and So Saffron.

I hope you enjoyed this project.

Triple Panel Card with Dragonfly Garden

Hello Everyone,

I’ve tried a different layout for today’s card, what do you think?

I’m really thrilled with the colour combination too, using the 2020 in colours which I absolutely love!

A touch of Wink of Stella on the dragonfly and some clear Elegant Faceted Gems add some twinkle for the recipient.

For this sample, I made the card base from Night of Navy card stock and stamped with Bumblebee and Just Jade inks!

A Final Card with Borders to Backgrounds

Hello Everyone,

The January to June Mini catalogue will retire in just over a week’s time…. And sadly this stamp set has already sold out 😦

But I still wanted to show you these cards I made with the Stamparatus tool. So if you managed to get the stamp set or you have something similar you can try this out!

You can see how I made these cards in my video tutorial…

The Biggest Wish stamp set lives on the desk at the moment…. I just love it!

I have used complimentary colours to make my cards. I think that these would also look good with black accents too!

And here’s a bonus card I didn’t show on my video! This combo is Shaded Spruce and Granny Apple Green.

I hope you enjoyed this project.

Monday Colour Challenge with the Tranquil Thoughts Stamp Set

Hello Everyone,

This week’s colour challenge….

  • Garden Green
  • Mango Melody
  • Flirty Flamingo

It was so tempting to get out the Friendly Flamingo stamp set, instead I turned the the Tranquil Thoughts stamp set.

I’ve used this before for a challenge, but this time I am using some of the additional dies in the bundle too.

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

Adding the ink with a blending brush brings out the embossed detail from the die.

Here’s a close up of the original sample. Which is your favourite?

Cardmaking with the Springtime Joy stamp set

Hello Everyone,

I wonder if you caught my post for the InspireINK Blog hop on Saturday?

I used the adorable Springtime Joy stamp set and I’m using it again today to CASE my own card to make today’s project!

See how I made this card in my video tutorial….

Make sure to clean masks thoroughly between used….. My Coastal cabana turned a little grey. Fortunately, this didn’t spoil the final project.

The colour lifter marker gave my bunny a soft look! An essential for your Stampin’ Blends collection!

See how I made this card in my video tutorial….
