My project features the Little Delights Stamp Set. This is a lovely set for all occasions.

I’ve tried something different with the layout of these cards, choosing to wrap the ribbon from top to bottom.

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

Using a white cards base kept the design light and fresh.

The Genial Gems were the perfect finishing touch for this card.

I used the Wonderful Gems on the yellow card.

This sample uses So Saffron, Bumblebee and Cinnamon Cider inks.

Lily Pad Thank You

Hello Everyone,

On first glance, the Lily Impressions designer series paper looks a bit crazy with so many bold colours…. But look how great this card looks!

DSP was adhered to a white card base.

Rich Razzleberry ink was used to stamp the sentiment and water lily images. These were cut with the Stitched So Sweetly and Lily Pad dies. An additional die cut was cut from Rich Razzleberry card stock.

The sentiment was adhered first with dimensionals.

The water lily was coloured by pulling ink from the outline image with a Wink of Stella glitter brush. The die cut outline was adhered over the top and then added to the card.

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

CAS Colours and Sketches #352

Hello Everyone,

Welcome to my blog. Today I am sharing my project for the CAS Colours and Sketches challenge.

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

And this is what I created!

The card features the Thoughtful Blooms stamp set and coordinating Small Bloom Punch available during Sale-a-bration.

To make the card I used Bermuda Bay and Petal Pink inks to create the background. This was layered on to So Saffron card stock and then to a Bermuda Bay card base with dimensionals.

Blooms were stamped with So Saffron ink and punched out. Each was shaped with a ball stylus and adhered to the card. A clear Epoxy dot was added to the centres.

The sentiment was die cut with the smallest shape from the Stitched So Sweetly set.

A Petal Pink bow completed the card.

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

Magnolia Thank You

Taking a break from Christmas with this thank you card.

I used Magnolia Lane designer series paper as the background layer. Vellum was added over the top to soften the colours a little.

Old Olive ink was used to stamp the sentiment taken from the Modern Heart set. This was cut with a circle punch and added to the card.

Daisies were stamped with Petal Pink ink and cut with the coordinating punch. Leaves and sprigs were cut from Old Olive card stock and vellum.

The punched elements were adhered the card with multipurpose glue.

InspireINK Blog Hop – Winter Thank You

Hello Everyone,

Welcome to December’s InspireINK blog hop.

The theme this month is “Winter Thank you”

I have used the Beautiful Blizzard bundle… I have loved using this set, I shall miss it when it retires.

I began by cutting a card layer 3 by 4-3/4 inches.

The sentiment was stamped with Gray Granite ink.

Blushing Bride ink was then used to add the snowflakes, turning the stamp each time.

The panel was adhered to a layer of Blushing Bride card stock and then to the card base.

Three die cut snowflakes were then added to complete the card.

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

Thank You #GDP161

Good Morning,

I love a colour challenge. Here’s this week’s Global Design Project’s selection.

See what the design team have made here

I am not generally a fan of yellow, so the Crushed Curry card stock has been pushed back behind the main card layer.

Leaves from the Colourful Season stamp set were added down the side of the panel. First, second and third generation ink added texture.

Pumpkin Pie card stock was cut with the Thank You Thinlit. A circle of vellum was put under the sentiment to lift it from the background.

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

Just Add Ink #423

Hi Everyone,

I hope those of you in the UK are enjoying the Bank Holiday.

Today I am playing along with the Just Add Ink challenge.

This is an interesting combination, see what the design team have made here!

And this is what I have created featuring the Follow Your Dreams stamp set and dies.

I built the background first using the Artisan Textures stamp set. To soften this a little, a Vellum overlay was placed over the top. The panel was added to a Basic Grey card base.

There are lots of layers on the dream catcher.

First, the largest image was stamped in Basic Grey and Die cut.

The additional layers were cut from Bermuda Bay and Soft Suede card stock. These were secured together with a silver brad.

The large feathers were cut from white card stock and Soft Suede ink was added to the ends with a sponge dauber. The smaller feathers were stamped with Bermuda Bay ink on to matching card before Die Cutting and adding to the dream catcher.

The Friendly Expressions stamp set was used for the sentiment which was heat embossed with silver powder.

This was cut with the Pretty Label Punch and adhered with dimensionals. A few silver pearls completed the card.

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